Yanks, Braves Open Series On Wednesday BULLETIN NEW YORK - Southpaw Whitey Ford was nominated today to pitch the opening World Series came for the New York Yankees on Wednesday at Yankee Stadium. Lefthander Warren Spahn will start for the Milwaukee Braves. NEW YORK <UP)—The champion New York Yankees hoped to solve their injury problems today while awaiting the arrival of the Milwaukee Braves and what could be the richest overall World Series in history. Manager Casey Stengel of the shooting for his eighth Series championship in nine tries, wondered whether his ailing stars, Mickey Mantle and Bill (Moose) Skowron, would be able to play in Wednesday’s opening game at Yankee Stadium. So he called for a Monday morning workout at the stadium. \ "Maybe after it's over I'll be able to tell you whether Mickey ami Bill will start on Wednesday,” Stengel said. "On the other hand. I’ll work 'em out again on Tuesday morning for I wants make .sure.” . Just what he would do if they couldn't play, he didn’t reveal. But the chances are he would put his prize rookie, Tony Kubek, in center to replace Mantle and shift Elston Howard, a baseball jack of all trades, to first for Skowron. Mantle, whose bid to retain batting's Triple Crown, was foiled by shin splints in his left leg, sat out the last three games of the season while Skowron, a heavy-hitting right hander, has been on the sidelines for nearly a month with a painful back injury. Mantle’s Leg Better The chances appeared to be that Mantle would play for he reported his leg “feeling better.” But it didn’t look like Skowron would make it. Stengel had hoped to get all the right-handed hitting power possible in his lineup to face the Braves’ opening game pitcher, the gifted left hander, Warren Spahn l ' Spahn, a 21-game winner, is expected to oppose Whitey Ford, a Yankee cripple for most of the season, who finished strong with a total of 11 victories. While the Yankees were working out, the Braves were being feted in a civic ceremony and parade in Milwaukee. The Braves were scheduled to leave Milwaukee by plane at 2 p.m. e.d.t. and

"I want my players at the stadium on Tuesday to practice during the same time the games there will be played," he explained at Milwaukee. “Then they can establish' the patterns of the sun and shade during the afternoon.” Field Troubles Visitors Center and left field especially have given visiting players trouble at the stadium Haney refused to go beyond his pitching plans other than Spahn. It was expected, however, that he would start either Lew Burdette <l7-9) or Bob Buhl (18-7) in the . second game at the stadium on , Thursday. Stengel, who has not even an- . nounced definitely that Ford will I be his opening-game pitcher, was t expected to go with another southpaw, Bobby Shantz (11-5) in the . second game. Ft' For the third game in Milwaukee on Saturday—Friday will be kept open for travel—Stengel was expected to go with either Bullet Bob Turley <l3-6) or Don Larsen (10-4), who made history last year when he pitched the first perfect game in Series annals. For the Braves in Saturday’s game it will be either Burdette or Buhl, depending on which one does not start on Thursday. Bobby Brogan Named .

Horsepower Outboard Introduced "The new V-four horsepower outboard introduced by Johnson Motor for 1958, will revolutionize engineering concepts in the outboard industry." stated Bill Mansfield of Mansfield Outboard Marine. He says that V construction is the ideal arrangement for multicylinder engines as the automotive industry has already proved. The design allows for a compact grouping and reduces the height of the engines to almost half that of in-line engines with the same number of cylinders. V construction permits use of a shorter crankshaft which is inherently stronger. If you uavc something to sell ot rooms ftn rent, try a Democrat Want Ad - they bring result*.
