PAGE FOUR Joe Black And Allie Reynolds Meet In First Series Game Os ’52 By LEO H. PETERSEN I (United Press Sports Editor) BROOKLYN, N. Y. —ilP)— Man ager Charley Dressen gambled on Joe Black, a raw-boned rookie right hander, to subdue the thun der in the New York Yankee bats today and get the Brooklyn Dodg ers off to a winning start in the 1952 World Series opener at Eb bets Field. Opposing Black, who never be fore has seen a World Series game, much less play in one, will be right hander Allie Reynolds, the veteran fireballer who was the Yankees’ most valuable pitch er during the regular season when he won 20 and lost only eight. The weather forecast was for clear, sunny skies with tempera tures in the 70's for the opening of the 49th World Series classic. A sellout crowd*of 35,000 was ex pected to jam every available van- j tage point in the Dodgers' ancient ball park. Game time is 1 p. m E. S. T. Dressen's reasoning in starting 28-year-old Black, playing only | his second season of organized baseball, was logical. The big Ne gro speedballer was brilliant all season long as he made 54 relief appearances, compiled a 15-4 rec ord, and saved at least 15 more games. What's more, he proved a tireless workhorse, often pitching three or four times a week. If Black won the opening game, Dressen reasoned, he could come right back and pitch again in re lief on Friday, Saturday, or per- I haps even both days, if needed. j “I think we have a helluva good / chance to take it,” Dressen reit-! erated Today at practice. Despite the Dodger skipper's confidence, the odds were 6 to 5 that the Yankees would win the opening game today and 8 1-2 to 5 that they would win the Series for the fourth straight year and the 15th time in 19 tries.

Manager Casey Stengel of the Yankees, blessed with a better pitching staff than the Dodgers, had similar strategy in mind in nominating Reynolds. The strong armed. part Indian ace was used ; -frequently in relief during the last veeks of 'he pennant race and Stengel may be contemplating the same practice in the Series, if it should become neeessary. Reynolds is an old hand at Se ries games, having won four out of five starts. He had broken even in two opening games starting as signments. "He's my guy," croaked wily old Casey Stengel. "Allie showed me during the regular season that i he can start and relieve, and do a : good job at both. He's the best I’ve got and I'm quite sure we i can win with him.” If Stengel can guide his Yan kees to a fourth straight world | championship, he will tala; his place in baseball history alongside Joe McCarthy’, who is the only manager thus far ever to win four straight World Series. McCarthy did it with the Yankees from 1936 to 1939 inclusive. | Stengle willingly announced his ' starting pitchers for the first three i games-selecting Vic Raschi and Ed Lopat to follow Reynolds ir. order—but steadfastly witheld the j Yankees’ batting order for the ; opener. I "How in hell can I make out a I batting order when I don't even j know yet if Gene Woodling can play?” he stormed to reporters.

When the hips move from side to side and she head remains steady over the ball you have every chance of making a better swing. By ALEX J. MORRISON Author of “A New Wat) to Better Golf," Teacher of Champions ‘‘SHIFT your hips from side to side. Make sure that your weight is on your right leg in the back swing,” I told Joe Doakes. Joe is a difficult pupil. He has played golf for some 20 odd years without taking the trouble to learn anything like the correct swing. Though his club handling technique is atrocious he is a walking library of pat phrases and terms of the various theories. Though this knowledge hasn’t added the least bit of efficiency to his club swinging it has made him a regular looker room golf lawyer. So I wasn't surprised when he argued, “Shifting my hips from side to side will make me sway my body and I don't want to do that." Such a state ment indicates that the individual does not know the difference be tween shifting and swaying. lE' YOU WILL think of those two terms as being confined to the right and wrong body actions you will have no trouble keeping yourself straight about them or she action of your own body.

DUfcN, N. C. J i • A- • 1 Shifting should be connected only with the lateral motion of your ; hips. Swaying applies only to the excessive side to side motion, of j your upper body', especially your 1 head. The accompanying photos clear- ! I.V illustrate the right and wrong movements. Another point to re member about these terms and movements is this; you are never apt. to do both. You can be pretty ■ sure of doing one or the other. Now you get into moving your head instead of your hips by starting your backswing improp erly. By starting your hands back first or turning your body before shifting you place yourself back of the eight ball. The only way to get the job done right is to start hips, arms, ’ hands and the club all together, holding your head steady over the ball as you do this. t | If in doubt about getting yoiif j hips into the proper shift pracr * tice without a club until you can j see in a mirror that' your hips move more than your head does | laterally. Wildcats seems to be staring it’s ! because he’s wearing heavy contact i lenses in his eyes. FIGHT RESULTS By United Press NEWARK. N. J.
