By KEN PRITCHARD NEW HAVEN, Conn. (CP)-- When Casey Stengel was man- aging New York Mets in their first season three years ago he used to remind reporters that in signalling for Ken MacKenzie from the bullpen he was call- ing on a real intellectual -- a Yale man, no less. But:MacKenzie, one of a hand- ful of Canadians to reach the major leagues in the last dec- ade, made oné mistake and after that even his intellect couldn't keep him with the Mets. His mistake was to have a winning (5-4) season in 1962, the first pitcher to do that with the Mets. It tended to interfere with the developing image of § the National League doormats and MacKenzie was traded the following season at a time when he had a 3-1 mark. Today, after be ng shunted ; from one team to another and § finally being shipped to the mi- nors, a slightly bitter MacKen- aie has decided to abandon base- ball in favor of a return to his old alma mater. He's freshman coach in hockey and baseball at Yale, the university from which he gradu- ated in 1956 as a six-letter man. "I believe I can still pitch in the big leagues," says the 31- year-old left-hander from Gore = Bay, Ont. "I have no arm trouble, am as healthy as ever | and have experience." WON'T SIGN : The six-foot 185-pounder adds that he has no intention of.sign- | ing a minor league contract. Amarillo of the Class AA Texas HE WAS GREAT until he won! Ken MacKenzie, one of the few Canadians to make the major leagues in the last a winning season. After be- ing traded around then shunted to the minors Mac- Kenzie abandoned baseball to coach at his old college, both iockey and baseball in his home town on Manitoulin Island and came to Yale in 1952 on an academic scholarship. He grad- uated in industrial administra- tion. In 1956 he compiled a 10-4 ree- ord in the Halifax and District Basebaii League and was signed by Jeff Jones, Milwaukee Braves scout, to a contract with Atlanta Crackers of the South- ern Association. ; After a successful minor league career and several spells with the Braves, MacKenzie was acquired by the Mets. In suc- cession he was the property of St. Louis Cardinals, San 'Fran- cisco Giants and Houston Astros before being returned jo the minors.
