Lord grant me open mind
Receptive, eager, quick to learn
The truths my teacher would impart;
Give me the wisdom to discern
The right from the wrong; give the power
To concentrate; give me Your sure
Strong light Of Truth to guide my way
Through passages that seem obscure;
And let me know that You are near
When must go to face a test;
Erase my every thought Of fear;
Help me, Lord, to do my best.

St. Paul recorder., 1962-09-07

DelnB Cn6 mOSC popular man Ill
hamentary secretary to the min
lister Of finance and development
and a national member Of the
Kenya Legislative Council, said
unequivocally that Jomo Kenyatta
is the most popular leader in the
country.
Listed under Kenyatta were
Ronald Ngala, president of Kenya
African Democratic Union, (KA-
DU), second; Masinde Muliro, vice
president, KADU third, and Mboya
minister of labor and secretary
general of the Kenya African Ma
tional Union (KANU). KADU and
KANU are the two major political
parties in Kenya.
Kenyatta, famed leader of Ken
va independence movement and
president of KANU, and Ngala
are both currently serving as CO.
chief ministers of Government Af-
fairs until elections are held in the
country, scheduled for January.
Okondo, an executive officer Of
KADU, has been touring the us.
since June IL. In his country he
is known as "Mr. Federalism" be-
cause of his views on how the
nation should be organized, and
governed.
Okondo spoke on the fundamen-
tai differences dividing the two
political parties, which have split
the country asunder, even delaying
the day of independence.
Tribal Chiefs Present Problem
AS in most new African states,
the thorny problem to be settled
in Kenya is the status of tribal
chiefs and the amount of power
they shall have.
KANU, according to Okondo, es-
pouses a strong central govern
ment with land being owned by
the government. KADU, Okondo's
party, would like to retain the
present system of land tenure
where tribes own the land. Their
plan of government also envisions
a loose federation of tribes and re-
gions within the country.
Okondo said the question now
in Kenya is no longer one of inde-
pendence because that is assured.
The question now is one of freedom
for the masses, he believes.
Against Remaining In British
Commonwealth
He does not want Kenya to re-
main in the British Common
wealth, except for necessary econ
omic ties and wishes the country
to become a republic. This would
exclude recognizing Queen Eliza
beth as sovereign, following the
pattern of India, Ghana, South
Africa and others.
Evidencing an unmasked hatred
for the British, Okondo has never
forgotten the time in 1851 when he
was denied a job in his country
because he was a black man He
said:
Determined To Die For Freedom
II determined then that would
die or it (colonialism) would die"
Explaining the differences be-
tween English and French colonial
systems and their affects on black
people, Okondo said: with the
British, the only question is wheth-
er you are black or white. You are
segregated and separated and that
is all.
But the French allow the
French culture to seep into you so
that you truly do become a
Frenchman.
That is why, Okondo continued,
that a black man always feels
himself a stranger in England, but
feels much freer when he is on
French soil. The ultimate goals Of
colonialism, he said, are the same,
however, no matter who practices
it.
okondo said that he was sad
dened by Jomo Kenyatta's de-
cision to join a political party
after he was realised from deten-
ton by the British. This has dim
inished him." he said, "and we

was said that Hubbell was rougher on left
handed hitterS than on the others, yet only
Ruth and Gehrig of the Fearsome Ffvesome
batted that way. 1t was a tremendous and
memorable performance.
There are some students of All-Star
history who vow that 1855 game, when
the Nationals won, 6-5, in IL innings, was
the most exciting in history 1t was a
dandy, all right, with the Americans hold
ing SO lead at the end of six innings.
The MI pecked away until the score
was tied at SIS, and then Stan Musial
came to the plate to lead off the bottom
of the 18th inning
Yogi" Stan said YEARLY to the emin-
ent Lawrence Berra, catcher for the AL
team, I'm getting tired. 1 think I'll end
it now!"
AND, IN TRUTH, that's what Musial
did. On the first pitch, served by Frank
Sullivan of the Boston Red Sox, he swung
and belted the ball 375 feet for home
run in County Stadium, Milwaukee, for a
6-5 victory.
MuSial'S words had been so Ruth-like
and so un-MuSial-like that Dave Grote,
tub-thumper for the MI, was compelled
to check the accuracy of the story.
Musial was embarrassed. After all, it
wasn't original as a stunt Ruth had
called his home run shot against the Cubs
in the 1882 World Series, and Stan the Man
is not one to wear any mans collar, not
even the Babes
What happened" MuSial told Grote,
was that 1 remarked to Yogi that I was
getting tired. After all, it was the 18th
inning"
you're getting tiredp Yogi COM
planned. How about me? I've been out
here all day.
"'Okay,' told Yogi, just Joking. I'll
break it up and get you out of your misery
Il didn't call any shot, at least I didn't
mean to try it," Musial said later "All I'd
hoped to do was meet one of Sullivan's fast
balls and get on base with single"
+ -
THERE WE'RE OTHER MEMORABLE
All-Star Games, some of which will be
Sidered more classical than the ones
touched upon here. But OF MuSial there
are no further lyrics to sing. This will be
his 22d appearance tomorrow-hes the
alternate leftfielder-and there have only
been 81 games.
Closest to Musial in All-Star appear
ances is Ted Williams, who was invited
and who accepted on 10 occasions Next is
Yogi Berra, who after 16 times will be
among the missing.
Probably with genuine regret, Manager
Ralph Houk passed up his colorful boy,
Yogi. Thus therell be no historic chatter
between Musial and Berra.
If Stan the Man breaks up tomorrowS
ball game at D. c. Stadium he'll have to do
it muttering to himself ThereIl be no
Yogi with who INTO swap the bon mots, and
that, by itself, is the first tragedy of the
1862 All-Star Game.

in the 18th had pitched four
clutch innings of relief in the
series final. Gino Cimoli sac
rificed Lumpe to second.
Cheney walked Nanny jim
enez, and when he also threw
two high ones to Norm Siebern,
Vernon called in Jim Hannah,
the Senators seventh pitcher
of the afternoon. Siebern fouled
off Humans first pitch and
then drew a walk.
The AS had the suicide
squeeze on with Ed Charles at
bat, but Charles missed the
pitch. Lumpe. breaking for the
plate, appeared to be a dead
duck.
However, Catcher Ken Retzer,
who was growing weary. chased
him too far before throwing
the ball. He was almost on
top of third when he threw to
Brinkman and the ball went
through the rookie shortStop
for an error.
Recovery Thrown Away
The ball was about 20 feet
back of third and Lumpe was
lying on the bag, with Coach
Jojo White of the AS feverishly
imploring him to get up and
run. s..
Nobody was backing up third,
but johnson ran back and
picked up the ball as Lumpe
realized what was going on and
started for home. They still
had ample time to get Lumpe
at the plate, but Johnson's
throw was high and wide.
Refer caught it and made
wild stab, but Lumpe was
across with the winning run.
The Senators, who had been
losing low-scoring heartbreak-
ers in their last home stand,
had AZ hits. % runs and eight
homerS in the series and didn't
win a game. Refer hit his
sixth yesterday, plus Zipfels
second.
All Of the AS runs except
the tying run in the 10th were
tainted. zipfel badly mis-
judged a fly to left that led to
the first. Brinkman missed a
tag at second to set up the
next run, and a throw by
Brinkman went through Don
Rudolph for another.
But the AS, who lead the
league in hitting, wore out the
Senator'S pitchers with 80 hits
for the three games. The
Athletics also used the sacrifice
to great advantage, and did net
make an error.
NOTES-Piersall, unable to
grip the ball. used Hinton as
a caddie when he went to
centerfield in the 10th. On
the two flies Piersall caught,
Hinton was beside him and re-
layed the ball to the infield.
The AS brought their outfield
in with Piersall at bat because
he had only one hand on the
bat. The brisk breeze
was too much for the right
handed hitters. Nobody came
close to hitting one over the
leftfield fence.

WIN LOSE OR DRAW
There Are Two Ways
OfApproising AII-Stors

APPARENTLY THERE ARE at least
two ways of looking at All-Star Games.
The cynics call it spectacle, a circus, a
midsummer window dressing. The puriSts
consider it a valid test of strength between
the American and National Leagues.
1t is their claim that the All-Star
Game is to baseball what the Masters is
golf, just back Of the Open. Only the
World Series, they insist, outranks the ALL
Star Game. Probably the true perspective
is somewhere between these schools of
thought.
There was a time when the National
League, down, 1874, in games won and lost
in 1949, disparaged the the All-Star Game
The overnight rules were too flexible it
was maintained. One year the fans would
elect nine players, the rival managers the
rest. Another year the fans would elect
IS, another time the All-Star managers
did all the choosing.
Joe Mccarthy was relentless in his
pursuit of victory. Twice he used only a
dozen players, with strong favoritiSm
toward his own talented Yankees. Gus
toners moaned that Mccarthy was so in
off stars of other teams
TITS ball game" Marse Joe used to
say, land the idea is to win"
Its a spectacle" crestfallen National
Leaguers retorted at the time, land people
have right to see their favorite players"
SINCE THAT DOLOROUS AFTERNOON
of July II, 1949, when the American League
ran up its biggest margin, the National
League has come on like gangbuSters
Going into tomorrow's 32d All-Star Game
the Nationals are trailing only by 14-16
and they are favored to win again, al
though the odds are slight.
Whatever the true purpose or intent
Of these festivals, anyone who has seen
all-or most all-iS bound and strapped by
memories. Like in 1888, the first time the
late Arch Ward staged the show in con-
junction with the Chicago Worlds Fair.
An elderly-fat man named Babe Ruth,
already bitter because he not only was ap-
preaching the end of his career but also
because he was refused the membership
of the Yankees, won the '33 game with a
two-run homer. That was quite a start,
but it was 1884 that is best remembered
here.
1t wasn't precisely classic game
the Americans won, 9-7-but it forever
will be known as Carl Hubbell's day. This
was the occasion when Hubbell, called the
Meal Ticket of the Giants allowed Charlie
Gehringer and Heinie Manush to reach

hitterS in succession. He ended the first

What were the odds against that per-
Torrance? Hubbell'S pet pitch broke away
from righthanded hitters, dipped sharply

To-day trial that he is no out
fielder, and in addition he can't
throw. Vernon said that first
base is the only position for
him, but it's also the only one
for Bright, who is hitting 1903.
Brinkman made three errors
yesterday, but they are not
worried about his fielding. He
has a fine pair of hands, is
sharp on a double play and US
ually makes the play in the
clutch.
May Replace Johnson
Vernon has toyed with the
idea OF putting Brinkman on
third and Ken Hamlin at short
because of Bob Johnson'S con-
tinued fault of messing up the
crucial plays and his failure to
hit with men on base. In the
AS three big innings in the
series. not counting the 18th
yesterday. the key blow was a
ball hit to Johnson that was
scored as a hit. In each case
his teammates disagreed with
the scoring.
johnson hit into his 18th
double play yesterday. With the
season just short of half over
he is threatening the American
League record of 80.

Star Staff Writer

A routine rundown play that
was botched up by the Sena-
tors catcher and two infielders
in the 18th inning in Kansas
City yesterday was the crown
ing blow to an absolutely I'M
believable series.
The Athletics swept the three
games, winning the last one, g.
5, with a run in the 18th with
out a hit after overcoming a
Al deficit. Friday night the AS
scored seven runs in the eighth
to win. 1873, and Saturday
night scored five in the 9th for
a go victory.
And trouble is piling up for
the Senators, who have lost
seven in a row. Jim Piersall may
be lost to the team for an in
definite period. He returned
with the Senator's All-Star con-
tingent at a pre-dawn hour this
morning for another X-ray of
his painfully bruised and swol-
len right hand.
Injury Aggravated
PierSall went in as a defensive
replacement in the bottom of
the 10th yesterday, but when
the AS tied the score he re-
NAMED in the game. He batted
twice and the first time ag-
.gravated his injured hand as he
hit a hard grounder to short.
His hand puffed up after the
game an he was in considerable
pain.
He was out eight days from
the time a ball hit the back
Of his hand in a freak pre-
game practice accident. 1t ap-
pears much worse now than
before, and he may be out
several weeks.
The Senators miss him. With
his guiding hand he had been
converting Chuck Hinton into
a fair leftfielder and had
started to work on Bud Zipfel.
If PierSall had been in center.
the Senators probably would
have won two and perhaps all
three games of the series. The
outfielders committed errors of
judgment in all three games.
Two Rockies Hit
If anybody is optimist
enough to find a bright spot
in the lost week end, it would
be in the hitting of the rockies,
Shortstop Ed Brinkman and
Bud Zipfel.
Brinkman had four hits, in
GLIDING two doubles, in two
games. zipfel had six, including
a home run, yesterday for the
second straight game, and a
triple. He played all of one
game and most of the other
two.
Manager Mickey Vernon said
he will stick with both after
the All-Star break, but he may
have to put zipfel back on
first base. 1t depends on Harry
Bright. If Bright's fielding is
paSSable at first, zipfel prob
ably will remain in left.
However, Bud has shown in a
