NEW YORK >li" Bobby Shantz
the fourth-place Philadelphia Ath
letics’ 142-pound mound giant, was
named the American League’? M-'«t
Valuable Player of 1952 today by the
Baseball Writers’ Association of
America.
Shantz, who is the first pitcher
to win the American League award
since Hal Newhouser won it in
1945 and the first membe- of the
Athletics since Jimmy Foxx in
1933, will be awarded the Kenesaw
Mountain Landis Plaque. He com
piled a season’s record of 24-7 be
fore suffering a broken ulna bone
in his left wrist when struck by
a pilch by Washington’s Walt Mas
terson on Sept. 23.
Shantz, who v.as ridiculed as be
ing too small when he began )rs
baseball career in 1948. was the
overwhelming choice of the writers
He was named on 23 of the 24
ballots, received 16 first-place votes
four second-place votes and one
each'for third, fourth and sixth.
On the basis of 14 points for p
first-place vote, nine for second
eight for third and so on down tc .
one for 10th, the 27-year-old W
hander received a total of 28’’
points.
Allle Reynolds, fireballing 20- \
game winner of the world cham
pion New York Yankees, was
Shantz’s closest competitor in the
balloting with 183 points. Outfield- !
er Mickey Mantle of the Yankee?
was third with 143 points and catch- j
er Yogi Berra, also of the world
champions and the league’s Most :
Valuable Player in 1951. was fourth j
with 104.
Reynolds was named first on four
ballots, mantle on three and Nel
son Fox. second baseman of the
Chicago White Sox, on one.
however, was named on onlv 1"
ballots and finished only seventh
in the overall voting with 59 point*
No player was named on all 24
ballots.
Behind the fourth-place Berra I
in the voting came pitcher Early |
Wynn of the Cleveland Indians with
99 points: fhjst baistman Ferris
Fain of the Athletics, the Ameri
can League batting champion, with
: 66: Fox; and three members of
the Indians—pitcher Bob Lemon
with 58. pitcher Mike Garcia with j
!52 and third baseman A1 Rosen
with 51.
In addition tc leading the league
j in victories. Shantz topped- the cir
; cult in woh-and-lost percentage
t with 774, pitched 280 innings.
I struck out 152. pitched 27 complete
games and, hurled five shutouts.
! Shantz, a native of Pottstown.
Pa., smarted his baseball career
with the encouragement of his fa
i ther—one of the few who thought
the pint-sized pitcher had a chance
to make good—with Lincoln in the
Western League in 1948. After an
18-7 season at Lincoln, he moved
up to the Athletics and had a 6-8
record in 1949.
lii 1950 he developed a screw
ball and finished the season with
j a record of 18-10 and a 3.95 earned
run average.

Demaret Still Has the Touch
By ALEX J. MORRISON
Author of “A Neio Way to Better
Golf" Teacher of Champions
JIMMY DEMARET’S victory
recently in the National Celebri
ties tournament at Washington,
D. C., comes in mighty handy.
First, there is the keen personal
satisfaction that goes with any
triumph in golf. In Jimmy’s case
this personal satisfaction is hard
to measure. I doubt if anybody
knows for sure what particular
success in golf would please him
most, whether it would be win
ning from certain other cham
pions or gathering the largest
sum in cash.
It would seem that the first
part of this deal already has been
settled since Jimmy has won from
almost every champion at some
time. He has issued personal
challenges for individual matches
against players like Bobby Locke,
yet I doubt if he is as interested
in beating them as he appears.
And I do believe he lias an in
terest in the colorful side of golf
that is second to none. In this
department he is not excelled by
any player of the past or present
and my opinion includes Walter
Hagen.
» * *
UNDOUBTEDLY this feeling
for color put Jimmy on his toes
during the great annual parade of
stars from many fields as well as
golf.
This gathering of the tops in
varied activities inspired Demaret
to show that he still has the
touch needed to win from golf's
foremost competitors.
Though the title and cash may
not be considered as great as
those connected with other events,
there’s no denying the satisfac
tion in being tops among the

stars. It would be like stopping
the show at New York’s Palace
theater for a vaudevillian or like
a jockey’s winning of the Ken
tucky Derby.
So Jimmy's cup of satisfaction
must have been running over on
this occasion. And we should
thank our stars that we have had
a Jimmy Demaret, since golf
readily becomes a mighty grim
business for most players, par
ticularly those who claim they
just play for the fun of it.
