CHICAGO, July 81 (AP).-
Don Dell, the 2S-year-old Yale
man from Bethesda, Md, had
an upset and a thrill today
but not necessarily his biggest
win, despite what Chuck Nc

Dell, ranked fifth, pulled the
major shocker in the National

seemed baffled by the deliber-

The victory sends Dell against

Bauer Ending Career
OLA Years as Player

major league baseball game
and raped three hits off Lou
Brissie, a fine southpaw pitcher
with the Philadelphia Athletics.
boy, this is easy" unused
Hank Bauer, the fleet-footed
ex-Marine then a New York
Yankee hopeful.
Tonight, that same right
fielder, now manager Of the
Athletics in Kansas City, will
play his last game and retire
to direct his club from the
bench. There will be gifts
from the fans but they prob
ably won't include a rifle
armed rightfielder who could
drive in 100 runs a season
something the manager Of the
cellar-plagued AS could use
more than anything right now
Symbol of Yankee Spirit
It was 1,543 games ago that
Bauer made his debut. It
wasn't as easy as he thought
then but he became q symbol
of the spirit Of the Yankees
who won nine pennants and
seven World Series during his
IL seasons in the big town.
He never was a phenomenal
hitter but he became one Of
the old pros Of the Yankees,
q man who could be depended
on when the chips were down
Determination showed in his
every gesture. A righthanded
hitter, he was tabled as a
sucker for a curve ball early
in his career. His manager for
II seasons, Casey Stengel, once
growled: HE wants to play
every day but how can I play
him against the righthanders
when he can't hit them
snakes"
When Casey was asked to
name the men who had done
most to keep the Yankees up
there, he replied: Joe DiMag-
gio and Yogi Berra." But when
they asked him for No. 8, Casey
didn't hesitate over the list, in
cluding Mickey Mantle.
"Why Hank Bauer. Of course. -
Holds Series Record
mo, it wasn't as easy as ]
thought" Bauer said. II had
trouble hitting the low outside
curve. The righthanders used
to sidearm me and I would
fish and miss a ball. I learned
to lay off that pitch and to hit
the curve better"
There never was any ques-
ton about Bauer's fielding
running or throwing. His arm
is one of the best. He was fast
despite his 100 pounds and still
can show a burst Of speed de-
spite the fact that he will be
40 years old in just 10 days.
An indication but no true
measurement of Bauer'S value
as a player can be found in the
record books. His lifetime bat.

street. This was about
noontime.

tive measures must be di-
rected toward the family
rather than the sufferer. As
Mrs. w. knows, the trouble
is emotional rather than or
ganic. No lip-tooth- tongue
palate exercises are involved.
Clearly, young Dickie Is the
victim Of too much stimula-
ton, too many presSures, and
recurrent fears about pleas
ing his parents. He feels
himself in some sort Of q race

that others get stymied, too.

shutters. Since she's with
Dickie much more than I,
naturally most Of his speech
has been picked up from her.
1t isn't nervousness or excite
ment. It's just imitation.
Once Dickie gets to school,
he'll initiate his teachers.
Another thing that holds him
back is his small vocabulary.
When I hear him floundering
to say detective" or "astro-
naut," I help him out. That
way he learns new words and
realizes I'm speaking to him
as though he's q big fellow,
not a baby just learning to
talk.
He's a smart boy and has
already started violin les
sons. I'm sure the key to
improving Dickie's speech
lies with his mother. She
may need a new course in
correction for herself. Dickie
adores her and copies her.
It's hero worship.
