Beach, Fla, training camp pick up a pool
cue and almost absently, negligently beat
the flashiest Of the young Dodgers who
fancy themselves as off-the-field hustlers.
One gets the impression that, If necessary,
he can beat any Of his troops with his
fists, too.
As it turned out in the final playoff
last October 8, Aston was the goat. With
two out and runners on second and third
in the ninth inning, Walt ordered Stan
Williams, his pitcher, to walk Catcher Ed
Bailey.
PRIOR TO THAT TIME Aston, being
a non-player, couldn't help the Dodgers
score over those 80 barren innings. He
couldn't play third base, (Which nobody
else could, either nor could he restore
life in Sandy Koufax' dead finger. But he
could and did order this strange walk to
Bailey, who was batting .22S That filled the
bases, and with the score IA he left it up
to Williams to get the ball over the plate
to Jim Davenport, the Giants third base
man.
Williams couldn't. He walked home the
run that cost the pennant. The Los
Angeles buffs-and the Dodgers themselves
as Durocher was to ilIustrate-blamed
Aston. They let williams off the hook,
as If the manager In some manner was
supposed to guide his pitches. "a CSC f.
Subsequent developments Civilians was
traded In the winter to the Yankees)
proved that he wasnt-or isn't-much
pitcher, anyway.
ALSToNs PLAYERS SULKED or
cried In their dressing room, refusing to
come out for interviews and barring the
door from the press. Only Aston faced up
to the music. Embarrassed by his players
who were on the verge of mutiny, Walt
emerged and took newsmen who wanted to
speak TO him to a bare, unused cinderblock
cell. ,.H tn.
Aston and the Dodgers should win the
pennant this year, even with their margin
cut to Az games. As baseball men point
out they scarcely can have long losing
streak with pitchers like Drysdale, Koufax
and Johnny Podres. STILL one never knows
The Giants, who had big trouble for
a long while, are moving up to challenge
again. The Cards, with Dick Groat at
shortstop making tremendous difference,
are bidding. The implausible Cubs aren't
too far off, nor is the Cincinnati club
which has been operating without third
baseman and with Joey Jay one-time ace
Of the Reds, having hard time buying
victory.
For that matter the Phils are about as
close to the leading Dodgers as the second
place White sox are to the Yankees In the
American League. Nothing seems TO come
easy to Walt Aston.

The Senators start the last
two months Of the season
with q twi-night double-head-
er with the Red Sox tonight
at d. c. Stadium.
The club is faced with the
prospect of losing 100 games
for the third straight year and
establishing q new attendance
low for the expanded leagues
unless it puts on a sudden
drive In winning and drawing
customers.
Every time the club wins
two or three In a row, Coach
Danny O'Connell starts the
chant, We're not going to
lose 100 games"
The Senators lost an even
100 in 1861 and 101 last year.
In order TO avoid 100 losses
this year the Senators would
have to win 26 of their re-
naming 81 games. This would
be considerably above their
1852 pace~for the first two
thirds of the season.
Averaging $500
The Senators have drawn
378.4 customers for A dates
this year, an average Of $500
per game. If they maintain
that average for the 26 remain
ing home dates, including sew
eral double-h e a ders, they
would draw about 100000 for
the season.
That figure most likely
would be low In the major
leagues, despite the attendance
troubles in Cleveland and NIL
waukee.
Kansas City was last in the
American League last year
with 635,675. In 1861, the first
year Of expansion in the
American League, the Sena-
tors were last with 597,287 in
Griffith Stadium.
The National League low
since 1t expanded was 500 ,802
for the Cubs last year, but
they are hopeful of drawing
a million customers this year.
The Senator's drew 729, IT'S
last year and had one date
rained out. This year the pre-
season goal was to draw in
excess of 100000 for a break
