FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 25, 1955
Today's
Sports Parade
By OSCAR FRALEY
United Press Sports Writer
NEW YORK, UP—Baseball undeniably entered a new
era today as managerial discretion finally overcame hope
inspiring valor. ,
Once upon a time—and it happened every spring,
children—each major league manager was expected to
predict that his stalwart heroes would win going away.
By August, he usually was hoping that they’d just go
away. n
But how times have changed.
This year, of the 16 pilots on the big apple only one
—Marty Marion of the Chicago White Sox—has come right
out with a flat-footed announcement that “you bet I think
we’ll win.”
Offhand you might think from this that the Pale
Stockings are a shoo-in. But it is possible that Mister
Bones is simply applying reverse psychology; He was
canned from) his last job for assertedly being of a “de
featist” attitude. Said job having been at Baltimore, you
can almost understand the “why” in both cases. •
DRESSEN SEES ADVANCEMENT
In the American League the “catch-me” clubs are the
Indians and Yankees. Both managers respectively, A1
Lopez and Casey Stengel, are singularly reticent when it
comes to prophetic discussion. Neither is going to give the
October critics any extra fodder. And, after Chicago, the
other five bench directors are well-nigh gloomy.
Chuck Dressen of Washington appears downright
brash when he admits to designs on the first division “and
maybe a pennant in two or three years.” That gives him
quite a bit of leeway. Bucky Harris at Detroit cautiously
avers that his Tigers may finish “anywhere within the first
five,” and that not a high in optimism. v
Even with Ted Williams returning, Boston’s Pinky
Higgins sees a “rough road ahead with only a few bright
spots.” And Baltimore’s Paul Richards shatters a spring
tradition by saying he doesn’t have “the foggiest notion”
where his gladiators will wind up but figures it will be
“somewhere in the middle of the pack.”
Lou Boudreau of the Kansas City A’s shows some of
the old-time spirit by complimenting his crew on the
grounds that he never managed a club with “more coop
eration and spirit.” Said attributes may be unproductive
because he admits “we’ll be satisfied to get out of the
cellar.”
THE “LIP” SILENT
Charley Grimm of the Braves and silent Walt Alston
of the Dodgers are the most daring souls in the National
League. Grimm admits “we have as goody” while Alston
asserts that “we are as strong, if not stronger, than the
Giants.”
Leo The Lip Durocher of the Giants for once says
nothing.
Birdie Tebbetss of the muscular Cincinnati Redlegs
ventures a tentative suggestion that “we are solid enough
to be contenders” but tempers it with a warning anent his
pitching. Mayo Smith of the Phils pleads that his club
must strengthen its defense and bench while Eddie Stanky
of the Cardinals hedges that “we’ll go as far as our pitch
ing takes us.” )
Debating for the Cubs, Stan Hack insists stoutly that
his warriors “are not a seventh place team”—and who
wants to finish sixth? Meanwhile, Fred Haney of Pitts
burgh, after two years in the basement will go no farther
than to suggest that “we are not thinking about finishing
eighth.” Maybe they’re going to try a new league.» \
• All in all, the gentlemen are exceptionally wary.
Marion seems to be the only one who didn’t receive the
new script
