T oday's Sport Parade ‘ 5,’ , (Rtfl- U- A- P*t- Office) By JACK CUDDY NEW YORK (UP) — Now Milwaukee's fanatic baseball fans are pondering whether Fred Haney’s career as a manager will follow the rags-to-riches pattern of Casey ; Stengel. , No manager ever had more Woes than Stengel in the days When he piloted the ’’daffiness bnya” of the; Brooklyn Dodgers and later the equally inept Boston Braves. But! when old Casey got a ohance with a good team—Yankees, he became the first manager pßer to win .five straight flags. Like Stengel, the. 57-year-old Hat»ey has ‘‘never really had a chance" until now. And also like Stengel, Haney hasn't allowed past anguish to st&! his sense of humor. It takes quite a man to come up smiling jatteC ap eighth-place and a staihplace wKh those old St. f Lmib ’ Browns (1929 and 1940) and three straight ' eights (the hard wgy) * with the Pittsburgh Pirates (1953. <81,» '661 but Haney has done it. , Like the time the Pirates lost a game they had apparently won. With , men on first and third and two but the Bqc batter singled and , the “winning” run came home/ But the runner on first failed 'to touch second a la Fred Mffkle and.was p.dt out. Haney, who was coaching at first, was asked why he didn’t correct the yoUiig man. •'Because I was too busy making sure the batter touched first." grihned Hiney. "Last week he lost us a game that way.” /> Haney insists he “enjoyed" managftig the Pirates and the record shpws plainly, he, was very unhappy when he was let out —so it could be true. He had taken the job in the first place only at the behest of old friend Branch Rickey who .fired him on the last day of last season. The Braves picked him up as add “more fire” to the team, and When jolly Chofly Grimm w-as excused from the managerial post lAst, Saturday for. failing to scalp the' league, Haney -was moved in. Now some folks are saying that fuftdoving Fred must win the pennant 'this year in order to keep the Job next year. If so. that puts him on just about the hottest spot in the majors. But this is a guy who became manager of the Browns at a time when Babe Ruth was one of the applicants for the job and had a let of sentimental hackers; and the same guy who gave up a safe job at Hollywood to suffer in Pittsburgh. Haney’s used to tough spots. Like Stengel, he’s suffered. Like Stengel, he could come out a winner in the tend. ; 'J —_ Room For Engineers \ PHILADELPHIA (UP) — The ..of ' Pennsylvania annwinced it is able to accommodate 60 pfcr cqnt inore engineering student a than Are how Enrolled.
