Case Expects
Plenty Of Fun
On Basepaths
BY MERRELL WHITTLEsEY
Star staff Writer

PORTSMOUTH, Va, April s,
When Chuck Hinton Is In
the Senator'S starting lineup he
will lead off and Jim Piersall
will bat third. George Case,
the speed coach, believes that
will set up some exciting sit
uations.
We'll have those D. c. Sta
dunn crowds humming like the
people in Chicago do when
Luis Aparicio gets on base, /"
Case said as the Senators went
through a two-hour workout
here yesterday. They meet the
Pirates here this afternoon,
then fly home for the week end
series with the same team.
Hinton stole % bases last
year and. according to Case,
Chuck's potential is unlimited.
Hinton is impetuous and has
much to learn about base steal
ing, but he has a patient
teacher.
Case believes that the daring
OF Hinton and Piersall on the
bases will mean more than their
stealing potential.
Take the game with Balti-
more the other day." Case said.
I'VE had a two-run lead going
into the ninth, thanks to Hin
ton taking an extra base. 9th
erwiSe, we would have had only
a one-run lead and would have
had to play it differently when
they had two on in the bot
tom Of the ninth"
The Senators had the bases
loaded in the top Of the eighth
with Hinton on first. When
Willie Tasby doubled down the
leftfield line, Hinton took off
and scored from first, sliding
nome just ahead of the ball.
Almost any other player, ac-
,ording to Case, would have
had to hold up at third.
We're going to drive some
If those pitchers nuts when
Hinton and Piersall get on base
1t the same time" George re-
marked.
Case is hopeful Of re-educat-
.ng the Washington fans in the
appreciation Of the daring Of
base runners. The Senators
admittedly have their slow spots
In Gene Woodling, Dale Long
and the catchers, but they have
enough speed to make it inter-
esting.
Piersall will lead off when
Hinton is not playing.
In between Hinton and Pier
sail, the Senators will have the
canny Danny O'Connell, who at
The age of 80 last year stole is

champions after the final
Eastern Division playoff game,
they couldn't talk about the
title series with Los Angeles
opening here tomorrow after
noon.
With time running out in the
best-of-seven Boston-Philadel-
phia set, the entire competition
suddenly boiled down to Jones
VS.. Chamberlain.
I'VE were supposed to kill the
clock" Jones said later. Bob
Cousy had told me we had time.
But I lost sight Of the clock.
When I saw Bill Russell make
the pick, I figured I had to
make my move.
chamberlain looked like a
mountain coming out at me.
AS I let the jumper 60 I thought
the ball was going to hit the
rim. Guess ! gave it some body
English"
Jones. Boston's top scorer
with % points, turned to Coach
Red Auerbach as the latter sat
slowly shaking his head in al
most disbelief.
Hey, you guys sure got big
mouths on the bench. All I
could hear was Shoot, shoot. I"
When Auerbach could catch
his breath, he said:
This was the toughest seven
game series we've ever played.
It was harder physically and
took a lot out Of us. We almost
blew this game"
Russell, clio center whose
spectacular blocks Of shots and
passes in the fourth quarter
h elped Boston's comeback,
agreed.
Toughest series I've ever had
to play In" Russell said. Sam
Jones got the shot Of the night.
Cousy (2l points, played a great
game. He got those big baskets
when we needed them.
"I'll tell you something. I
haven't slept for a week. Every
night I see Wilt 1t seems he's
grown another inch taller"
Though Russell held Cham
berlain to 20 points and had the
rebounding edge, 1921, wilt
was outstanding defensively as
a team player while Rookie Tom
Meschary took scoring honors
with 80 points.
With less than two minutes
to play, Jones hit on a jumper,
Paul Arizin scored for Philadel-
phia, then goaltending was
called against Chamberlain and
Tommy Heinsohn (25 points,
was awarded the basket. Jones
fouled Chamberlain, who scored
on both tries, then Wilt hit a
three-pointed to tie the score

Opening lead: Spade queen.
West opened the queen Of
spades and declarer won in
dummy with the king. He led a
trump at once and lost the
queen to Vests king.
Back came the jack of spades
to dummy's ace and declarer
led another trump from
dummy. East played low and
South wavered.
Should he play the ace or
should he fineSSe the 10?.
This was the whipsaw Situa-
ton. South had the chance to
guess wrong twice and he
wasn't the sort of person to neg
lect his opportunities. He went
up with the ace Of hearts and
had to lose a second trump
trick. Down one.
Don't Look Now
Don't look at the East-West
cards and sneer at poor South.
West might have been dealt
the doubleton XII instead Of
the singleton king, and then
South would have been a hero
for playing for the ace Of
trumps the second time.
If you don't enjoy being
whipsawed, you can use a SIM
pie safety play in such situa-
tions. Just play the ace Of
trumpS the first time you lead
the suit. If you catch the sim
gleton king or the doubleton
king Jack you cannot go wrong.
When your ace catches only
small trumps you go back to
dummy with the king of clubs
and lead another trump. You
lose only one trump trick un-
less West had XIX Tin which
case the situation was hopeless
from the Start). No guess, no
anguish. no whipsaw.
