Says Mickey Mantle Tops Power Hitters KANSAS CITY Mo. (UP)—Kansas cfty Manager Lou Boudreau said today that Mickey Mantle is "a greater power hitter than Ted Williams.’’ Boudreau, whose Athletics held the mightv New York Yankee slugger to singles in the threegame serier which ended Sunday, said Mantle has tho potential of being “one' o’ the greatest players in baseball today. He didn’t rate Mantle as a greater hitter than Williams but as a greater power hitter with strength to all parts of the held. “Mantle can hij anywhere and is strongest in center, left center and to the right, but he has a lot of . ears to go before hes is the established hitter that Williams is,” said Boudreau. Asked why he invented the "Mickey Mantle shift” this season if Mantle had strength to all fields, Boudreau said: “The shift is to try to make him go the opposite way— to make him lose power and to keep him from pull’ng in Yankee Stadium. It served its purpose. “Os course, he can bunt against it —• which he has done — but that just makes the shift successful because we use it to keep him from hitting, homers.” Klenk's And Rockford Play Here Thursday - Klenk's of Decatur will meet the strong Rockford nine in a Western Buckeye league game under the lights at Worthman field Thursdaynight at 8 o’clock, __ 1 ' Rockford has one of the best tea 11!s in the league ahd Decatur fans -are assured of one of the best games of the season whenever these two outfits tangle.
