Ford, Spahn Named To Hurl Series Opener NEW YORK (UP) — Milwaukee manager Fred Haney adopted Casey Stengel's favorite weapon — the platoon system—today, revealing he will alternate his right fielders and possibly his first basemen against the New York Yankees in the World Series. with southpaw Whitey Ford slated to start for the Yankees in the Series opener at Yankee Stadium Wednesday against left-hander Warren Spahn, Haney said right - handed hitting Andy Pakko will be in right field and Joe Adcock, another right-handed hitter, at first base. •'When the Yankees pitch a right hander," Haney added, “111 have Bpb Hazle in right field and maybe Frank Torre at first base." Hazle and Torre are left-handed hitters. Casey Still Undecided While Haney appeared certain as to who would start for his Braves at every position Wednesday, Stengel still had not made up his mind about three spots—- — Last Time Tonight — Technicolor Sensation! “ISLAND IN THE SUN” Harry Beiafonte, James Mason Joan Fontaine, Joan Collins ALSO — Shorts 15c -50 c WED.

first base, second base and left field. Husky Bill Skowron, the slugging first baseman who has been sidelined two weeks with a sacroilliac condition, was the key man ni Stengel’s indecision. “I still don’t know whether he’ll be able to play.” Casey said, “And if he ”m ,il rea n ac t “And if he can’t I’zn ta real trouble. ‘lf Skowron can piay, it will help me make up my mind who I will start in left field and at second base.” Skowron and Mi p ke y Mantle who has been sidelined by shinsplints in his left leg, both indicated they were ready to play in Wednesday’s opener although each explained he wasn't 100 per cent sound. Howard May Start Skowron seemed the more doubtful starter of the two and in the event his back prevents him from playing. Stengel probably will use the right - handed hitting Elston Howard at first base. That would mean either rookie Tony Kubek or Enos Slaughter would be in left, and either Gerry Coleman or Bobby Richardson at second. Stengel had no doubt at all as to the other positions. He said Yogi Berra would catch Wednesday, Hank Bauer would be in right field, Gil McDougald at shortstop and Andy Carey at third base. Considering his Braves are the underdogs in the Series, Haney was in an expansive confident mood as he arrived here by plane from Milwaukee with his team late Monday. "J know we have a battle on our hands," he said, “But I don’t see any reason why we can’t win it.” Haney said that in Wednesday's game his outfield would consist of Hank Aaron in center, Wes Covington in left and Pafko in right. Adcock will hold down first base; Red Schoendienst, second; Johnny Logan, shortstop; Eddie Mathews, third base, and Del Crandall will start behind the plate. Maine-born Sir William Phipps was the first American to. be Flighted by an English king and became the first royal governor of ttife combined Massachusetts Bay and Plymouth colonies in 1692.

Brooklyn’s Move To Los Angeles Delayed NEW YORK W» — This is the day when the Brooklyn Dodgers were supposed to announce their plans for 1958, but instead club president Walter O’Malley is expected to ask a National League meeting for an extension of the deadline. .. The New York Giants vtee likely to make formal announcement at the meeting that they will move to San Francisco for next season. But the Dodgery were hung up on a legal technicality—failure of the Los Angeles City Council to approve plans for a new Dodger home in that city. A stormy council meeting in Los Angeles Monday night ended with opponents of the plan still blocking the unanimous vote needed for quick approval. O’Malley goes into today’s league meeting, however, armed with "definite” assurance from Los Angeles Mayor Norris Poulson that the council will approve the ball park next Monday. Under Los Angeles rules, only 10 of we 15 councilmen are needed to pass the bill at that time and Poulson told O'Malley in a telegram early today that the 10 votes are lined up “without the slightest doubt" Although there Were repots that one or two league owners are opposed to granting O’Malley any more time, indications were that Poulson’s assurance would get O'Malley an extension.
