Mickey Mantle is Star of Yankees' For By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK (P) — Two main conclusions may be drawn from the world series which ended yesterday with Brooklyn again in mourning for the sixth time. The first is that Mickey Mantle, a 20-year-old from Oklahoma, is destined to become recognized within a few more seasons as the greatest baseball player in the history of the game. The kid can't miss. There's no defense against him. Talks to Elves The second, equally inescapable, is that Casey Stengel, the bemused manager of the New York Yankees, gets advance information from the elves before he makes each move. It would be difficult to prove that he isn't the smartest pilot the game has seen. His coaches are convinced that he is. Mantle's contributions to his club's 4-2 series clincher yesterday at Ebbets field were more spectacular than Stengel's. Every one in the arena saw the "Pheonom" clout the home run and the single in successive innings — the first lefthanded, the second right-handed — to put victory beyond reach of the Dodgers. Wheels Whirred Nobody saw the wheels whirring in Casey's head when he waved in Bob Kuzava, to pitch to Duke Snider the hottest of the Dodgers, with the bases filled and only one out in the seventh inning. But they were whirring, all right, and it is almost certain that Stengel know the blond southpaw from Wyandotte, Mich., would stop the National leaguers lead from there on. Provided he does not go into the service, Mantle will be still better next year. In only his second season the kid has done everything for the Yanks that Joe DiMaggio did, in an inspirational way. There was some debate last night whether Mantle or Johnny Mize the old codger, was the outstanding Yankee in the series. In this spectator's opinion, it was no contest. Tremendous Help Mize, it is true, came in things were not looking so midway of the series and a number of tremendous contitions to the Yankee cause, fact, he put them back in the tention when they appeared tied. But Mantle was in there all way, scaring Brooklyn pitcher death and fielding like an awful He led the assault which ensured the Yanks to tie it at 1-1 be Vic Raschi on Thursday. He provided the insurance second run Allie Reynolds' Saturday shut by tripling in the ninth and ninth. Gazette SP FJC Hornets Face Chaffey Friday Night Three down and number four to go. That's the situation this coming Friday night when the thrice victorious Fullerton junior college Hornets meet the Panthers of Chaffey junior college at Ontario. This is the first league game for both clubs and the Hornets should be in good shape for the contest. No serious injuries have been suffered by the team thus far this season. However a flu bug laid low several of the players last week and some regulars were out of the Oct. 4 game with El Camino. The Chaffey club lost its game last Friday night to Pasadena junior college by the lopsided score of 61-0. On the other hand, the Hornet club won out over a tough El Camino eleven by a score of 14-13. The potent Fullerton team drew first blood with but a minute and a half left in the first quarter. The score came on a line plunge by Jewel-Owens. A pass play from Owens to John Herrera set up the touchdown. Keith Gaynes converted and the Hornets led by a score of 7-0. The second Hornet score came only a minute later as John Craword intercepted a Warrior pass and rambled 89 yards to pay dirt. Gaynes again converted and as the teams changed ends Fullerton led 14-0. The Warriors hit the scoring column as the second period got underway. After Don Cornell had carried the kick-off back to the Fullerton 20 yard line, the Warriors moved it over three plays later, on an off tackle play by Cornell. An intercepted pass by El Camino's Mo Tavallii following the second-half kick off set up the final Warrior score. Jim Carmichael, who is the young brother of USC's Al Carmichael, carried over on the next play. Ken Swearingen's attempted conversion was wide and this proved to be the difference. The last quarter brought no change in the scoring. MANTLE BLASTS ONE — Mickey Mantle (7) of the Yankees brings his teammates off the bench in a burst of joy as he comes back to the dugout after blasting a home run into the left-center field stands in the eighth innings against the homer prowison 3-2. Old Case Bellows He Won't R BROOKLYN (P)—When Casey Stengel, the millionaire manager of the New York Yankees, decides to call it a career he will be best remembered for: 1. Zany antics. 2. As the second manager in big league history to win four straight World Series. 3. As the third pilot in the big league annals to win four consecutive pennants. Stengel assured one and all that he would be back in 1953. "I'm not thinking of retiring," the squire of Glendale, Calif., belowed in the unprearious Yankee dressing room after winning his fourth straight series yesterday. The only other manager to win four stright series is Joe McCarthy, pilot of the great Yankee teams of 1936-39. McCarthy and the fiery John McGraw are the only other leaders to capture four consecutive pennants. McGraw's New York Giants won the National League flag from 1921 through 1924. Stories about Stengel are legion. There was the time in 1925 when he was appointed manager and president of the Worcester club of the Eastern League, a Boston Brave farm. Stengel wanted to quit at the end of his season. As president, he fit himself as manager and then signed as president. During his career as manager of the Braves from 1938-39 Stengel attempted to have umpires call a game because rain. The Braves, who never finished higher than fifth during Caenure, were leading the Giants the time. Rain was falling and skies were becoming rainy darker. But the umps paid Casey heed. Finally Stengel decided call for a relief pitcher, Frankhouse. To show how felt about the situation, Stengel pulled out a pocket flashlight and blinked it towards the bpen. He was promptly ejected. During Stengel's last year Boston he was struck by a trunk and suffered a broken leg. He received this telegram "I trust nothing trivial." Stengel's term as manager Brooklyn from 1934-36 proves was the most trying of his career but old Case got the last lash. They fired him after the 1st season but as he had a two y HITTING TOWN IN BIG NUMBERS! 1952 Pontiac Now you can get immediate delivery on a big, beautiful new 1952 Pontiac.

Los Angeles St. "A GOOD DEAL AND Yankees' Fourth Straight Series Win It Mantle was in there all the scaring Brooklyn pitchers to and fielding like an angel. The assault which enabled Yanks to tie it at 1-1 behind Maschi on Thursday. He protect the insurance second run in Reynolds' Saturday shutout piping in the ninth and scoring on Peewee Reese's error. His home run on Monday proved the winning run in the 3-2 Yankee victory which sent the play-off to the seventh game, and he killed the Dodgers completely dead with his two big ones yesterday. Amazing Coincidence In all, the Mick propelled 10 hits in 29 appearances for an average of 345. By an amazing coincidence, this was exactly what Reese and Duke Snider did for the Brooklyn cause. Snider, for a time looked like being the hero of the series. In fact, this big swinger from Callioia battled the Yanks right down to the wire while others on his company failed to last. But in the end he had to yield honors to Mantle. Didn't Have It The most unfortunate figure was Joe Black, the big Negro rookie who rocketed the Dodgers in front with a beautifully pitched triumph over Reynolds in the opening game but was turned back by Allie's shutout in the fourth. Manager Charlie Dressen obstinately held Black out of Monday's Yankee equalizer in order to have him well rested for yesterday's big one—and then Joe didn't have it! Black sat the Yanks down very smartly for the first three innings yesterday, and we like to feel, as an expert second guesser, that he would have done the same thing the previous day if Dressen had only put him in to protect a 1-0 lead in the last three innings. After yesterday's third inning, it may be conceded, Black was tired and wavering. So was Ed Lopat, and Vic Raschi, who tried to take Reynolds off the hook. Preacher Roe, who came in after Black had given up, didn't have a thing except a long time between pitches. Secret Weapon And that was the point at which Stengel wheeled out his secret weapon, Kuzava, the only pitcher in the park who wasn't about to collapse of the blind staggers. Casey used the same tactics against the New York Giants a year ago. It was Kuzava, perhaps the most obscure southpaw in modern history, who snuffed out the final three Giants in the '51 World Series. Did It Again He did it again. The Dodgers popped up or struck out or sent harmless flies into the stiff breeze blowing into the plate.

PALO ALTO (AP) — Bob Mathias is getting lessons in how to carry a He Won’t Retire from Baseball On Brave farm, Stengel decided to quit at the end of the season. As president, he fired himself as manager and then re-attempted to have the team call a game because of braves, who never finished than fifth during Case’s era, were leading the Giants at home. Rain was falling and the team were becoming rapidly hot. The umps paid Casey no money. Finally Stengel decided to for a relief pitcher, Frank Korkhouse. To show how he about the situation, Stengel out a pocket flashlight linked it towards the bull. He was promptly ejected. Stengel’s last year at Brooklyn, New York, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Boston, with a .284 batting average. He played in the 1916 World Series with Brooklyn and the 1922 and 1923 classics with the Giants and finished with a .393 average. Stengel accounted for the only two Giant victories against the Yanks in 1923, winning both games with home runs. Dumb like a fox, that’s old Casey. Casey used the same tactics against the New York Giants a year ago. It was Kuzava, perhaps the most obscure southpaw in modern history, who snuffed out the final three Giants in the ’51 World Series. Did It Again He did it again. The Dodgers popped up or struck out or sent harmless files into the stiff breeze blowing into the plate. When Reese fled to Gene Woodling for the final out in short left field, the Yanks climbed all over Kuzava and gave him a wonderful drubbing. And Stengel went around thankking each of the little men whom nobody else could see, he told each of them, personally that he had done a whale of a job all year, and that he would see him next spring at the same old stand.

Injuries in last week's game with Citrus were negligible, and several players who have been out most of the season should be back in play. Ray Bokelman, center who has been sidelined since a pre-season game with Corona, might be in the lineup in spite of sustaining injuries in an automobile accident Saturday night. The type of plastic face mask used by Fullback Jim Roberts may make Bokelman's appearance possible. The Colonists will be attempting to better previous game performances enough to boost themselves into that elusive win column, which they have so far failed to make. Their performance against Citrus was one of the most heartening yet, the Blue and Gold team finally gaining a measurable amount of yardage.
