How Insults Win S -------- Baseball Games When Enos (Country) Slaugh- rr steps up to bat in a close ball ame you can, if you listen losely, 'hear the rival dugout 'go to work" on him. The voices re shrill, the remarks pointed, eaving little"to the imagination, . jecause Slaughter has been mar- ried five times. Tig "Here's old Marryin' Sam," 'hey chorus. / Then, as Slaughter faces the pitcher, one voice rings out over ihe rest: "What do you do with your old wives, Tommy Manville?" These hecklers aren't some of Slaughter's former in-laws; nor do they have any personal ill feeling toward him, They simply want to "get his goat" and this Is the best bit of information they've got to do it with. And the rough riders of the diamond don't hesitate to use' the sharpest "needle" handy to get under an opponent's skin. It may be coarse; it may be crude; it may even be. sheer nonsense, But whatever it 'is the baseball "jockeys" will use "it if there's the slightest chance it will shake the rival player's concentration by making him angry. Prime i with "rabbit ears," the guys who "go up in smoke" when insulted because they're overly sensitive. But everybody in baseball gets his full share. The dugout jockey goes far beyond the "holler" by which a "live" bench aims at inspiring the home team. The jockey is simply out to get a barb into the opposition and if he hasn't any insult handy, he'll make one up. Thus the ball player must ex- . pect to run the gauntlet con- tinually. The "needling" ranges through his temperament, weak- nesses, romances, unguarded statements and particularly his physical appearance, _ ) Take the case of Yogi Berra, 'the Yankee catcher who is short, squat and somewhat simian- looking. When he was married, 'Birdie Tebbetts greeted him one bright afternoon with: How Can I? By Anne Ashley Q. How can I test the quality of coffee? . A. By putting a spoonful in a glass of cold water and adding a few drops of lemon julce. If the coffee is pure it will remain on top of the water; if not, the water will become discolored. Q. What can be done to a worn shoe lining? A. If the shoe lining has worn -in places, which of course wears -out the stockings very quickly, paste strips of adhesive tape over the worn places. Q. How can I remove water -spots from varnished tables or furniture? A. By rubbing with a cloth or feather dipped in oil of camphor. Q. How can I make a chicken, or turkey, white, juicy and ten- der? ~~ = A. After cleaning the fowl, rub the 'inside and outside thor- oughly with a lemon before put- ting in the dressing. This makes the meat white; juicy and ten- der. Adding a'-tablespoonful" of vinegar to the water 'when boiling .also helps to make it tender. : R Q. How can I prevent tearing the hem of curtains with the "rod? A. Do not starch the hem when laundering sash curtains; the rod can then be put in with- out tearing. Put an old glove finger or a thimble over the end of the rod and the curtain: will go on smoothly. % Q. How can I mend cracked srockery? A. If a cracked peice of croc- xery is boiled in sweet milk, it will often be restored to use. Te rgets-are players - "Hey, Yogi, how does your bride like living in a tree?" It was too good to pass up and every bench jockey in the league grabbed 'it. Wherever Yogi went other players adopted gorilla- liké--poses, hung from dugout ceilings, scratched themselves and greeted. him with Tarzan- like screams. Yogi still hasn't heard the.end of it. on . Pity the poor players like Car Furillo, Ralph Kiner, Spahn or Ralph Branca, boys jith a "schnozz." And now that they're on the same team, Mic- key McDermott will quit walk- ing around on his knees in the dugout whenever tiny Phil Riz- zuto comes to bat. Things promise to be just a bit more quiet this year--now that Leo Durocher is gone. "The Lip" could "dish it out" even better, perhaps, than the.famed John McGraw or Jimmy Dykes. It's quite possible, too, that Durocher was the worst (or the best) of all time because he could, at times, cut like a knife, and it kept him in trouble from the start to the finish of his ca- reer, writes' Oscar Fraley in "The Police Gazette." Back in 1928, when he was one of the freshest bushers ever to break into the majors, Duro- cher was playing second' base 4 clinched the pennant in the first game of a double header, and Leo was feeling his oats. There were two out in the ninth inning of the second game and "Fatty" Fothergill, the overstuffed De- troit outfielder, was coming to bat when Durocher dashed up to the plate umpire. "Stop!" he screamed. "Don't you know it's illegal to let two men bat at the same time?" Fothergill tried to brain Du- rocher- with a bat, and many have been sorry since then that "Fatty" didn't. Two of them are Carl Furillo of the Dodgers and Al Rosen of the Cleveland In- dians. Durocher "got on" Furillo so mercilessly, and with such un- printable abandon, in 1953, that they squared off in a slugging match in which Carl suffered a bition game between the New York Giants and the Indians last spring, Durocher needled Cleve- land's Al Rosen so badly that they went at it. "It wasn't that he kept yel- ling 'Show us your muscles," said Rosen, "it was the other things, the dirty names, that made me mad." Jockeying . which got out of hand touched off a feud between Billy Martin of the Yankees, one pt the best in the business to- day, and Jim Piersall of the Boston Red Sox a couple of years back. The taunts went from bad to worse until Piersall finally exploded: "You've got no guts, Martin!" "You don't have a gut in your whole carcass!" Billy replied. P and were whaling the daylights cout' of each other when finally pulled apart. : During the last World Series between the Dodgers and Yan- kees, the pugnacious and fisti- cally-adept Martin va ready to go at-it again when Don New- combe began riding him. "I'm ready to take you on any time you're ready," Martin raged, "so put up or shut up!" There is little jockeying done on the color, race or religion of .a player, though. when Jackie Robinson broke the color -bar- rier he did for a time take a lot of bad riding. Subsequently, when he had clinched his place as one of the game's greatest players, he became one of the game's top needlers. Thus today he stands among such heckling artists as Martin, McDermott, Tebbetts, Charley Grimm, Casey Stengel, Jake Pitler, Nelson Fox, Chuck Dressen and Piersall.

Davie, master of M/V Wrestler Can Beat Fighter -- Joe Louis Joe Louis says there isn't a a topnotch wrestler such as Verne Gagne or Luo Thesz, and "that goes for Rocky Marciano, too." - fF . The ex-champ, who can't un- erstand the rash of press crit- 'ism over his entry into wrest- ling, has a lot of company in this view. Primo Carnera and Tony Galenti agree; but Joe Walcott turned-wrestler who doesn't. says Walcott, "I'll fight any of 'em and lick 'em. Trouble is, rasslers don't abide by the rules. - They punch and kick and they won't stand up." Louis put in,enough time as a wrestling referee around the country to convince himself that, as a fighter, he'd never be able to lick the good wrestlers. "I'd have to take out a wrest- ler with one punch," he. said. "That don't happen too often. They stay low and keep their chins in, and # they drop you, - you don't have a chance." At the same time Louis ex- plained that wrestling is a soft touch compared with fighting. "I'm 42 years old," he says, "and I could rassle every night night of the week. In fact, I got this offer from Ray Fabini of Philadelphia which guaran- tees me $150,000 a year to go on tour. But I don't want ao ras| six, sometimes seven nighty a week. Got too many other, businesses. - ~ "But take the fighters. If they fight one a month, they're 'busy. They gotta be young and full of endurance, In rasslin', you walk around a lot. I weighed 211 as a fighter. Now I'm 240 and that's good rasslin' weight." In the days when wrestling was considered more of a sport than a sideshow, you could al- ways get an argument by sug-= gesting that a Jim Londos or - a Strangler Léwis or a Gus Sonnenberg could lick the best heavyweight fighters going. This generally made the fight mob scream "foul!" Yet in the few instances when wrestlers went in against figh- ters, on the up-and-up, the fighter never had a chance. This was so far back as the turn of the cenury, Once Farmer Burns, middleweight wrestling champ, took on Billy Papke, a great middleweight fighter, antl* the wrestler ended it all™ without even getting a sweat up. On the other hand few wrestlers ever made much of a dent in boxing. Frank Gotch, a grleat grunt-and- groaned who fancied himself a boxer, found out you couldn't mix 'em one night in Dawson City Alaska, in 1901. } Gotch . was touring the ter- ritory, taking on all comers in wrestling bouts, when Frank Slavin, the Australian heavy- weight champ, challenged him to fight. Slavin was in the Klon- dike prospecting for nuggets of gold. The challenge was assepted, winner take all, Gotch, magnifi- cently proportioned, looked like: a fighter, He was handsome and quick on his feet--but Slavin knew too much. At the end of the fourth round Getchr was bleeding from 'the mouth and . fose, and one eye was battered writes Herb Goren in "The Police Gazette. At. the bell for the fifth round, Gotch, furious over his inability to land a solid punch, rushed up and heaved him into the tenth row. Slavin, badly shaken, crawled back to continue the hostilities, but the referee had already disqualified Gotch. boxer alive who could knock out * is the only fighter- "If a rassler rassles clean," Slavin to the ropes, picked him | When it was over, Slavin re- marked: "Gotch ought to stick-- to his own trade. He's the best wrestler I ever fought with." Maybe the same should be said of Louis, but Joe is 0 old to fight, and he could us the wrestling dough. Besides, as Tony Galento puts it: "You're never too old to rassle." Galento, who once floored "ilouis in a heavyweight title match before Joe stopped him, has this advice: "Joe, you're a nice guy and you Were a great fighter. It you're gonna rassle, better learn the holds. Get somebody to teach you. In two, three months, may- . be you'll learn." This is sage advice for any- body in any business, particu- lary for the fighter turned wrest- ler. Joe doesn't look so pretty .on the mat, Lots of folks say it is beneath Louis' dignity, but but this only gets Joe mad." Rudy Dusek, a big name in wrestling, welcomed Louis into the game. "I'm 63 now, and I wrestled until two years ago," Dusek says. "Joe should have at least five profitable years as a wrest- ler. If I was him I wouldn't go in against a Thesz or a Gagne for a year or two, at least, but he ought to do good against the 'big, slow-moving guys. He re- fereed a I6t and should 'have picked up something. And it would be interesting to see what a guy who can hit as hard as Joe can do against the wrest- lers." Did that mean Louis could haul off with his Sunday punch? "Not exactly," Dusek said. "But he is allowed to hit with the side of the his fist. An el- bow smash or a rabbit punch 'NO WAY TO RAISE 'EM--Mama's howling mad at a human's idea of the way to bring up kittens '--even if it's a photographer's way of dreaming up a picture, It was only a temporary catas- trophe; two' kittens shown are now back to earth together with their three brothers and sisters. is "all part of the wrestling game. He could chop up a lot of guys:" As for Carnera, who recently opened a bar and restaurant in Los Angeles, he was a carnival strong man and a continental freak before becoming a wrest- ler. "Louis never wrestled before," he said. "This is not like boxing. ----fa.wrestle, you must know your way around." As Dusek puts it: "Louis is supposed to have made four and a half million dollars by fight- "ing, but he got cut up so bad he wound up owing the govern- ment a million bucks in taxes. In wrestling he won't get cut up 14 different ways." Dusek, like all wrestlers, thinks it would be a joke for any fighter to come into the ring with gloves on and try to stop a wrestler, ~ "It's been tried many times, and always the fighter never had a chance. Like Louls says, the fighter would have to end it with one punch, Once the --wrestler crowded in, the fighter would be a dead duck." There was a funny sequel to Louis' first wrestling match with * Cowboy Rocky Lee. Third man in the ring was Joe Walcott. Lee took exception to the way Walcott handled the match, called him a cheese champ and snowed him under with insults. "Cowboy," said Walcott, "If you think I couldn't fight, you're welcome to take me on any night in the week." That's the way Walcott tells it, and a week later they were thrown in together, with gloves on in Baltimore, "In the first round," said Wal- cott, "I showed Lee a little of the technique that brought me the heavyweight championship. I just wanted to tease him a little bit, knocked him out. rasslers nohow. They're all musclebound, and they. can't fight a lick, and I think if they I don't like I could stop any one of them by fighting." That's Walcolt's story, but his version of the rules may not necessarily be right, Louis could be just as vigorous in defence of boxing, particularly since he still draws $20,000 a year from the International Boxing Club "as a so-called ambassador of the game, but he just doesn't be- lieve that any fighter has a chance against a wrestler. "You could throw in Marciano against any real good wrestler," says Louis, "and say: 'Rocky, do "you want to fight with gloves or without gloves, Take your choice', It won't matter. The rassler, he comes in real low, and he's on you quick, and you don't have a chance." Joe paused, then added: "A fighter's got no more chance than" a man in a man- wife argument. The man always loses." ' 'Magnet Installed In Cow's Stomach Magnets are being installed in cows as a possible answer to one of the banes of the -ivestock in- dustry--hardware disease.

RE The record-breaking flight -- for a Western nation at least ~~ was revealed in one -of a séries of announcements of United States progress in rocket bomb warfare, The intercontinental weapon, a Northrop "Snark," flew 2,000 miles over the Carribean from a launching base in Florida. Jet engined,, and flying at only about the speed of sound, it was in effect a pilotless bomber, The American defence de- partment promptly announced however that the Snark {s to be superceded soon by an inter- continental missile of longer _range. This, it is believed, would be a rocket-powered bomb which would fly above the atmosphere and descend upon its target at high speed -- prob- ably twice the speed of sound at least. In the field of short-range guidéd 'missiles, the Americans announced an "exceptionally high" degree of reliability in its Petrel guided missile which arms aircraft. The Petrel, which secks out its target by radar and homes on it, can be used in air-to- ground - or air-to-submarine combat. "Launched by patrol aircraft well outside the range of the target's air defence, the missile attacks at high speed and with devastating effect," the joint announcement said. "Use of the new missile thus will save the plane pilot from the anti-aircraft hazards which attack-plane aviators met Li the Second World War when they closed on the target. - Most Modern Bible "The Newest and Most Modern Bible", "a Picture-Book Bible", "The Jubilee Youth Bible" as it has been variously termed was released to the public recently. Copies of it have already been presented to Prince Charles and Princess Anne. Packed with 500 pictures that are simple snapshot sketches of every _bird, beast, tree and flower mentioned In the narra- tive, the attractive volume fis the Authorized Version, "with- out note or comment" in keep- ing with the 150-year policy of its publishers, the British and Foreign Bible Society. For the first time this new Bible. It is really an up-to-date visual aid rather than the old time type of story picture, Route- maps accompany the fext to show the reader the road he travels, milestones give the dis- tance between different Places, time signals count out the pass- ing of the centuries, badges or tionality of the people he meets, City gates and dwellings of the points visited are also shown. Highlights of the book are the special close-up studies of the Temple buildings, officers, vest- ments and vessels of worship; the costumes, coins, countryside and customs of the time of Christ; and the journeys of the apostle Paul. It is the complete Bible but so arranged that the narrative flows on in uninterrupted fashion; passages, especially ia the Old Testament, which are concerned with _genealogie itineraries," specifications an measurements, and other tech- nical matters, are placed in three columns on the lower half- of the page, but in their right sequence and of equal import- ance, yet not impeding the Bible Story. Several years' work has been put into this handy edition for young people and children. The aim and purpose is "to bring ~the story to life". The first edition will consist of 100,000 copies and is printed by Oxford University Press, and distributed by the Society below publication cost.
