Yonks Team to Beet
Even Without Mantle
BY MORRIS sIEcEL

its personnel There are four or five teams
itching for Jack Reed, the "caddy' now
filling in for Mantle, to be their regular
centerfielder.
Its the best bench I've ever had"
Houk acknowledges, with ready evidence
to support his belief At his disposal as
shortstops, for example, are Clete Boyer,
Phil Linz, Tony Kubek and Tom fresh.
Harry Bright, Boyer, Linz, Kubek and
Hector Lopez each can handle third base,
some better than others, but all adequately.
At first there's Joe Pepitone, but Dale
Long, John Blanchard, Bright, Ellie
Howard and Yogi Berra can fill in in q
pinch, 1t goes on with these doubleduty
Yankees. 'a
What Nantes absence does is make It
more difficult for the Yankees to win, but
the thought that they have been reduced
TO plebian status is only wishful thinking.
In spite Of their losing streak, they had
lost fewer games than any club in the
American League going into last nights
marathon against the Senators.
Other teams, even the Senators, also
can deploy their troops, but In most cases
they merely are inserting bodies. The
Yankees are inserting ballplayers. Some
are substitutes to be sure, but most Of them
are capable of being varsity performers on
so per cent Of the American League teams.
IF THE YANKEES really are hurting
anywhere it's in the pitching department.
Once past Ford there Is no big winner.
This includes Ralph Terry 23-game
conqueror and World Series star last season.,
but still questionable as stickout flipper
in the classic manner Of the tried and
proven Ford.
Stan Williams, imported from the
Dodgers for Bill skowron, has been flop.
Jim Bouton has taken up some Of the slack,
but Luis Arroyo Is not around TO snuff out
ninth-inning flareups. He is down on the
Richmond farm. Lefty AL Downing was
Just brought up from Richmond and has
yet 10 prove himself, despite last nights
successful venture against the Senators.
Although he's In Dallas, Mantle still
is very much with the Yankees. "I've never
seen team that rooted so hard for one
man 10 make good" Pepitone said Mickey
is leader without trying 10 be one"
During Nantes 40-day absence last
year the Yankees played 500 ball. When he
rejoined them they drove on to the PEN
nant Mantle later was acclaimed the Most
Valuable Player in the league.
The Yankee plight without Mantle
recalls trenchant hunk OF philosophy
once uttered by realist with practical
outlook on the hazardous pastime Of day
to-day living.
Whether you are rich or poor" he
remarked, 1T pays TO have money" The
Yankees are not broke.

Auto Club Puts Sachs
On Probation for Year

INDIANAPOLIS, June II
(AP).-The United States Auto
Club executive committee
placed Driver Eddie Sachs of
Detroit on probation for one
year yesterday for making
comments it considered detri-
mental to racing.
However, he will be permitted
to drive in USAC races.
Sachs was quoted after the
Indianapolis 500 as criticizing
officials for not tagging the
winner, Parnelli Jones of Tor
rance. Calf, off the track when
Jones' car began leaking oil
Sachs later spun out Of the
race.
Jones slugged him in an ar
gument between the two TIL
next day.

The USAC president, Tom
Binford, warned Sachs that the
organization would tolerate
no further irresponsible, UNI
supported statements casting
reflections on the integrity of
USAC officials"
The talkative Sachs had been
quoted as saying that the race
was rugged" and that you
can't protest politics."
Every driver is entitled to
his opinion" Binford said.
"USCA has never penalized q
driver for questioning the judg-
ent of an official. However,
questioning an officials in
tegrity is something else. :"
The probation will carry no
further penalty If Sachs con-
duct is acceptable for the next
year.

NEGH AT LARGE

IN THE ABSENCE of Mickey Mantle,
Whitley Ford, who works for the same
company, has undertaken the additional
duties of serving as spokesman for the
ailing Yankee star.
For the first time in years Mantle is
not summering at his usual headquarters,
Yankee Stadium. Instead he currently is
confined to Dallas split-level. with plenty
Of time to consider any unlikely offers for
return bout against centerfield fence.
The last encounter, staged in Balti-
more, ended with the barrier the clear-cut
winner, via blow which knocked Mantle
out Of the Yankee lineup for at least five
weeks. -
II talked to Mickey last night" Ford
said while standing In the lobby Of the
Shoreham, idling away time until last
nights double dip at D. c. Stadium.
IF those four kids Of his don't behave,
Mickey said he'll be back sooner than the
doctors Think Ford added, further re-
futing the skimpy belief that youngsters
exercise some magic, therapeutic effect
on ailing parents.
Ford left the idea Mantle was doing
nicely in his recovery. HE said the thing
bothering him is that he can't get golf
shoe on over the cast. told him to buy
a pair Of cleats and stick them in the
cast" hr
THE YANKEES; TOO, appear to be
recovering nicely from the initial shock Of
Nantes ugly injury. The absence of their
key man probably has given pennant
pretenders such as Baltimore, Minnesota
and Chicago q chance to make hay on the
assumption that without Mantle the Yam
KEGS are reduced TO the status Of being
only human.
But the Yankees feel they can over
come the blow that was struck them and
hold their own until the time OF Mick's
return. They lost six OF eight Immediately
after Mantle was hurt, but there is evil
dence the contenders would be better off
concentrating on winning on their own
merit and not depending on Yankee losses Il
give them false hope
What the Yankees can put on the field
without Mantle Is not likely to disgrace
them. That Mickey Is irreplaceable. is
fact acknowledged by the Yankees, who
are playing with only "a men, holding
Nantes spot open. at least for the time
being. t iHltft q
Ralph Houk has been forced TO change
the customary routine, but the new forma-
ton win not cause him undue embarrass-
ment. New Yorks ability 10 fill In the
gaps Is not accidental. It Is all part Of the
Yankee design each year when their
planners seek the shortest possible way 10

quately but had only one for

Jack Kennedy. Roger Maris,
still favoring his back and also
nursing a sore toe, played six
innings in the opener and

The Yankees were not them

Shutout Could Be Turning Point for Osteen
Landrith, Hudson
Share in Credit

Then he took q few poundings
and was dropped from rota-
ton.
Last year he found himself
in an exhibition against the
Reds after five defeats. He
scored his first victory on May
80 with q shutout over the
Athletics. He won seven more.
This year he blanked the
Orioles for eight innings in
his first start, but the Senators
lost the game in the ninth. He
pitched well for q few weeks
but couldn't win, and then was
bombed in relief roles May 20
and 81 against the Twins and
AS.
He held the Reds to two hits
in eight innings in an exhibit
ton last week. and then finally
won by banking the Yankees.
FOrgets Big Kick
Hudson told Osteen to for
get his big kick and to pitch
without putting so much eff
fort into every delivery. Osteen
worked hard on this after fac
ing five batters in Kansas City
and giving UP four hits and a
walk.
Claude had praise for Land
rith's work behind the plate
last night. He kept me think
ing on every pitch, and for the
first time / had an idea Of
where every pitch should be-"
Osteen said.
Claude reached his peak In
the ninth after Bobby Rich
ardson singled to left and fresh
hit an opposite-field double to
right on a ball not well hit.
Harry Bright was the next
batter. The Senator'S infield
played back. and with runners

SBill Dickerson, q standout
sprinter-hurdler from Fairmont
Heights High School has signed
an athletic grant-in-aid at the
University Of Maryland and will
become the Terps' first Negro
trackman.
The signing Of Dickerson,
who ranks 25th In a class of
200 accidentally, seems to open
a new avenue Of talent for the
Terps, who long have domi-
mated track in the Atlantic
Coast Conference and may now
be starting q push toward be-
coming even more Of a national
track power.
Coach Jim Kehoe, who an
nounced the signing today,
touched on this briefly.

our new recruiting policy"
Kehoe said, II feel that our
program will be strengthened
and Wen be able to meet any
team on a more equal basis"
The Terps, winners of eight
straight ACC titles, finished
fifth this year in the IC-4A
championship. The winner was
Villanova, which like some other
top-flight track powers has
outstanding Negroes primarily
in the sprints, hurdles and
jumps.

This is a top-flight boy, both
ACCIDENTALLY and athletically,"
Kehoe said Of Dickerson, a s.

done the low hurdles in 10
seconds flat and that's really
chomping. We consider him one
of the top sprinter-hurdler
prospects ever to enter the
university"
In effect, Dickerson becomes
the first Negro athlete actually
recruited and signed by Mary

breaking the color barrier two
years ago. Daryl Hill. a foot

his varsity debut this fall, was

It may take q few weeks I'd
prove it-perhaps even q year
or two-but Claude Osteen's
shutout over the Yankees last
night could be the biggest ball
game Of his career.
The wi1y, 23-year-old south
paw, who never looked worse
than in two poor relief jobs 10
days ago, parlayed a tip from
Coach Sid Hudson and a
smartly called game by Catcher
Hobie Landrith to blank the
Yankees, 10, IN the second
game Of the twi-night double
header ct d. G. Stadium.
1t was his first victory after
four defeats.
The Senators thus gained
their seventh split in seven
doubled headers this season.
They lost the first game, TO,
as they were held to two hits
by AL Downing, the 2l-year- old
southpaw recalled just four
days earlier from the Yanks'
Richmond farm.
Johnny Morrissey, the Sem
ators' ticket manager, hit the
crowd almost on the nose with
his $4,000 prediction. The
count was 25,716, without
Mickey Mantle as a drawing
card. @
Big Hit by Hinton
When a team gets only eight
hits and one run in q double
header, it considers itself for
tunate to get a split. The key
blow was provided by Chuck
Hinton, who isn't hitting for
an average Of late but who still
has the knack of getting the
big one.
Hinton blasted a triple "a
deep center in the sixth tt
score Ed Brinkman with the
only run Of the nightcap. Tom
fresh broke in and to his right
on the drive, but Hinton's ball
had more carry than fresh fig
ured and it sailed over his out
stretched glove and rolled tc
the fence.
Osteen's two springs with the
Senators show amazing paral-
lels. Both years he started
pitching well but couldn't win

THE WEEK I'M
RECORDS
BY ALBERT ANDERSON

"A fine LIP consisting mostly Of
blues tracks by the imaginative
Oscar Peterson commands the
spotlight this week. Although the
fare (most standards) is familiar
to most jazz fans, its treatment by
Peterson and company makes the
disc one of the most interesting
waxed by the group recently.
Details on the Peterson master
piece and other LIPS in the review
follows:
might TRAIN: - Verve LIP
(8538). Personnel: Peterson, piano;
Ray Brown, bass; Ed Thigpen,
drums. Tunes: Might Train; c.
jam Blues; Georgia on My
Mind; Bags Groove; "Moten
Swing; CLASSY Does IT.; Honey
Dripper'; Things Amt What
They Used to Be-; II Got It Bad,
and That Amt Good; Band
CALI; Hymn to Freedom"
The great o. P. has a way Of
fashioning the blues in a manner
that is not only unique, but al
most matchless, as one can easily
discern from this his latest mas
terpiece Listen, for instance,
to his delightful treatment OF the
title tune, g. Train" and of the
popular blues, Georgia on
My Mind" Man, o. P. really
sparlIles on these tunes While
his ring hand roams the keyboard
dexterously, his left-handed base
playing seems 10 continuously re-
spending to the probings Of the
other hand Overall, o. P. plays
imagdnatively and soulfully, as he
improvises cleverly on the blues
and ballads And he gets great
backing from the always penetrat-
ing Ray Brown, and Thigpen, on
drums, each of whom, like o. p,
contributes some wonderful solos
I think this disc is definitely a
potential chart maker for the Pet
erson trio IT'S SOLID.
"SILvER'S SERENADE": -
Blue Note LIP (4131). Personnel:
Silver, piano; Blue Mitchell, trum-
pet; Junior Cook, tenor saxophone;
Gene Taylor, bass; Roy Brooks,
drums. Tunes: "Silver's Seren-
ade"; Lets Go to the NIFTY Grit
ty"; Sweet Sweetie Dee; THE
Dragon Lady; Nineteen Bars"
This is not really a serenade but
actually another of Horace's mod
ern jazz waxings Silver, al
most always plays modern jazz
pieces They fit his magma
tive train of thoughts My only
criticism of Silver Is that he foe
uses too much attention on him.
