Without it, a Iless courageous man would have balk- ed at the idea of taking charge lof as notable a collection of mis- fits as there is in the major leagues, not even accepting the Cincinnati Reds. “His sense of humor may han- dicap as well as help him, how- ever,” remarked Memphis Bill Ter- ry, the big boss of the Giants, |when I discussed Stegel's appoint- |ment at the Miami Beach camp (of the world champions. “Don’t runners advance on an|Pou on March 4, 1901, started Lhe\forget that most of the fellows on the Dodger club have been kidding |and joshing with Casey while he !was just a coach. That kind of stuff was alright, of course, so long as Casey didn't have to say |the final word about what they would or would not do. “Now that Stengel is in full icharge, he won’t be able to sit down and laugh everything off or ‘rehcvp the situation by telling some {funny stories.

Casey may encounter similar trouble, unless he gets better co-operation from the board of directors representing perhaps the most quarrelsome ownership in the big league family. Stengel’s background is in his fa- vor. He was on the lst two Dodg- er pennant winners in 1916 and 1920. He played on three cham- pionship teams with the Glants. After three games of the 1923 world series the score in effect was “Stengel 2; Yankees 1,” Cas- ey's home run had decided two games. He later won a pennant with the Toledo club of the Amer- ican Association despite the fact the team was in financial straits most of the seaspn and there were | times, Casey recalled, “when I was managing three teams—one going, one on the field and an- other coming.” a FAVORITE STENGEL YARD One of the Stengel yarns I like best is the run-in he had one time with Bill Klem. Casey had kicked on a third called strike and Klem, very much on his dignity that afternoon, remarked, ‘‘You're out and unless you get away from here right away, T'll put you out of the game.” ‘This abruptness caught Stengel a trifle off guard. He had no im- mediate comeback but he was not to be outwitted altogether, The! next time he went to the nluln he used some pretext to renew argument with Klem, who shoL back: “I told you to keep quiet. One word more and you're through for the afternoon.” Whereup Mr, Stengel bowed, looked apologetic and took off his cap from under Whlch a sparrow flew out!

Basketball coaches who let out per- jodic yips about the rules being| too this or too that are no rarity| —but Coach Dave MacMillan of | the University of Mimesota has a‘ new angle or two in his observa- | {tion about the hardwood code. “I believe all personal fouls| should be called,” he says, “but I 'contend there should be a new system of summing them up—in- volving a new disqualification pro- vision and increasing the foul limit from four to five.” MacMillan favors making it not only possible, but customary, to, disqualify a player who intention- ally slaps down an opponent who is heading for a set-up basket shot, even if that is his only of- fense. “An offictal should be allowed to decide in his own mind wheth- | er a foul has been deliberate and unsportsmanlike, or accidental, and penalize in accordance with the in- tent and severity,” he says, “but| the rules don’t allow him to adju-| dicate on this basis. . “In a game we had with Wis- consin, both George Svendsen of our team and Rolph Poser of the Badgers were elected for four per- sonal fouls, yet I defy anyone to; show me that either of them did| anything deliberate, or ‘dirty.” | MacMilan aegrees with many of the coaches that officials could show greater leniency on ‘“steps”| | Butler Mauro Drug Co. “Express Money Orders Anytime” R | 3 SHOE REPAIRING | ‘We do with the latest ingenigus | | shoe machinery, restore them | to their newness in a marvel- | | ous manner at a fraction of | cost of a new pair.
