Beneficial Effects

If the enforced clampdown
on contact has stifled and time
table Hardin may have estab-
lished for getting his team
ready. It might also have some
beneficial effects.
Dave Sjuggerud, who is prob
ably Nays best defensive
end, appears to be recovering
from the knee injury that
forced him out Of the Army
game. With Sjuggerud out of
the game, Rollie Stichweh, the
Ca dets' quarterback, found
skirting the Middies flanks a
profitable enterprise.
And Duke Carlisle, the Texas
quarterback, is the same type
of runner as Stichweh. He ex-
tensively uses the pass-run OPP
ton and the split T option,
where the quarterback either
keeps and pitches out to q
trailing halfback.
without a strong defensive
end on the left side of Nays
line, this could be the Middies'
most vulnerable point.

Opening Day Game
. Still Thrills MusioI

NEW YORK, April 8 (AP) -
What's left, Stan Musial?
You've accomplished practi-
cally everything that can be
accomplished in baseball. So
what are you trying to prove?
The man who has become a
legend in his lifetime actually
appeared embarrassed by the
questions. He looked around at
his teammates, many Of them
not even born when he first
donned a Cardinals uniform,
and strove to find the right
words.
"You probably won't believe
It," the 42-year-old Musial
said. but / still get a big kick
out Of being in uniform. I still
have that desire"
Then. as If fearing this ex-
PLANTATION might sound a bit
sophomore, Musial added sort
of defensively: you've got to
have desire to play, particu-
latly when you get older"
Stan appeared fit and trim
in his 22d annual issue of the
Cardinals uniform as he worked
out at the Polo Grounds in
preparation Cor today's opener
against the New York Nets.
Opening day Is always ex-
citing" ne unused. This is my
2lst or 22d opener and I never
fail to get a thrill on opening
day. It's something I look for
ward to each spring. And be-
believe me, I look forward to
this season opener with as
much anticipation as I did in
my first one more than 20
years ago."

Expansive Orioles Toss
Bouquets at Senator'S

ON ONE COUNT, at least, Don Rudolph
made good on opening day. He was a
winning prophet "Baltimore's righthanders
won't; scare me" Don predicted. Nor did
they. Crtr ... '...- e..
His tormentors-Jim Gentle and Boog
Powell-swing as lefthsnded as Rudolph
pitches, and their twin, third-inning home
runs were all the Orioles needed. "Those
were. Don's only bad pitches" Mickey
Vernon related.
Vernon neither looked nor sounded
discouraged. IF we play this well all along"
Mickey said, wen win lot Of ball games"
Such optimism Is laudable, but some
how the Senators are going to have to
muster more bat. And how often can they
count on the six-hit pitching that Rudolph,
Ron Kline and Steve Hamilton threw? But
this is too early in the season TO dwell on
morbid items. Chin up and that sort Of
thing. AS Joe Cronin, president of the
American League, put 1t, TOO many line
drives straight at somebody. II one or two

lucky against Rudolph HE made me look

admitted. Then he threw one right down

Hes beginning to pitch like Whitley
Ford, You know, moving the ball around
and catching corners Ford occasionally
makes one too fat. Believe me, you'd better
belt that one, because Whitley won't do 1t
often Neither will Rudolph"
The Orioles we're In a properly expan-
slve mood. They we're high on young Ed
Brinkman's shortstopping. Real good arm
and real good range" Luis Aparicio was
telling a newsman.
There's some question about his hit

The oriole shortstop shrugged. 80 he's
very young, yes2 Twenty-onep He shouldn't

THERE WAS A sHoRTSToP emeritus

That kid apparently can make all the
plays" Luke conceded. "And you can't tell,
II he plays enough he may hit.
He won't overpower you, kid as little

Mary Breeding went into right

Tommy was the victim of the
first of two identical double
plays in his first time at bat
as a pro ball player. He lined
to Jerry Adair at second, and
Don Leppert was doubled off
first.
Runners were on second and
third with nobody out as
Brown faced Barber in the fifth.
After a two-strike count
Tommy waited out three balls,
fouled a pitch off his foot and
then struck out. He walked his
third time at bat.
There were catered boos
when Vernon sent Dick Phil

Costly Mistakes
Don Rudolph, who started
