Gil McDougald Os Yankees Is Rookie Os Year j 'New York, Oct. 19—(UP) —They laughed the first time they saw him stand up at the plate, but G4l McDougald of the Yankees, .the kid with the school-girt swing, has the last" laugh today.—he is the United Press American rookie of the year.

M But McDougald Had to hatlie evary kind ot an ohstaele along 'the way in order to gain the honor. First of all he had to Win himself a .job.- jriie Yankees didn’t think enough Os him to put him ios their official Spring training rostejeven though the 23-year-old sak voted ihe most valuable player .in the Texas league the year.

plate stance to boss Casey Stengel. “t thought he’d gdt kliUed,” Stengel said. "1 didn’t want anybody to throw very hard while he was up ATiere.” Hut McDougAld showed ‘em. Explaining that he adopted the unorthodox stance because it was the only way he! could hit a curve ball, he proceeded to demostrate to Stengel that he had no fear of any pitcher. .McDougald’s next big chore, once he had made the Yankee roster, was to get into the lineup. That, too was a problem “because \the rookie with the big ballyhoo was Mickey Mantle. McDougald was almost overlooked f- until the Yankees began to play for keeps. Stengel had decided on a lineup of JerTy Coleman, last year’s allstar second baseman and the 1949 rookie of the year, at the keystone spdtdand Bobby Brown third. That’s the way it worked out. except that McDougald muscled in on both. Because of his hitting dependability. he played against all kinds of pitching while Brown worked only against right han lers and Coleman against lefties. U’hen a lefty pitched against the Yankees, McDougald replaced Brown at third. When a right hander went, he took over for Cblemfin at second. He was dependable defensively at both spots and he wound up as the only Yankee in the world chain pionship lineup to hit better than .300. His .306 average gave him the distinction of being the first rookie to lead the Yankees at bat since Billy Johnson accomplished the trick in 194:?. . . And to top it all off. he hit A hat grand slam homer, only the third in the world series history and the ' i '

Michigan And Purdue In For Rough Baffles Chicago, Oct. 19—(UP)-— Two of tlie Big Ten’s four teams unde> seated in conference play risk their i:le hopes in league games tomorrow and both of them, Purdue and Michigan, w’erp scheduled for a tough afternoon. The Boilermakers, who i rallied for 14 last period points to edge lowa. 34 to 30, in their oijly Big Teh start, tangle with the top far* orej Wisconsin team at Lafayette, and the Badgers, though once beaten and once tied, were seven and one half point favorites? Michigan. 33 to 14 winner over Indiana In their onjy league match, coming after two non*conference defeats, were no better than an even bet.against lowa at lowa City. , A third conference game was expected to have desk affect on the 'standings, Indiana' at Ohio State. The lost their only conference gamte while the Buckeyes, also favored .w’ith Wisconsin, deadlocked the Badgers. Ohio State was a two t<itichdown choice for Saturday’s struggle. The remaining undefeated clubs in league play, Illinois and Northjwesttin, meet nigged non-league opponents. The mini travel to Washington and were six point favorites, even though Ray Eliot’s halfback dorps had been riddled by unjuries. I Northwestern was a two touchdoM n e'hoiep at Evanston against Navy, a club which has lost one .game by three points, another by seven a!nd tied one. ; In other non-league games Nebraska plays at Minnesota and the rookie Gophers were a two tbuehdown favorite, Michigan State was a two touchdown choice over State at\ State College, and Notre Dame was a similar favorite over Pittsburgh at Pittsburgh. Ohio State's combination passing and running, highlighted by Vic ■ Jftnowicz and Tony Curcillo, was rated' far too powerful for the Hoosiers, even though Indiana's passer Lou D'Achille has yet to eonie up to his 1950 performance. The Hoosiers may stay in contention on the running of Geqe Gedman 4nd‘ Bobby Robertson. Michigan, after suffering, lickings fiuin Michigan State and Stanford, jelled against the Hoosiers, and With an admittedly tough line, the Wolverine passing and running might be enough to t|p lowa. The Hawkeyes? too, were rated to have a rugged line with Dusty Smith a standout, runner and Ert Britzman fast Jmprpving as a passer. • Wisconsin left its sophomore ■ halfback star; Harland Cartr and \ another veteran back, Roy Burks, at home, but Johnny Coatta was expected to continue his usual accurate passing to match the Purdue throws of Dale Samuels. Freshman Alan Ameche was expected to furnish the Badger power from fullback. Trade between the Netherlands and Japan, under a new agreement, is expected to total $14,600,000 during the calendar year 1951.
