Not even Monte Irvin broken ankle can change my mind. Eddie Stanky left to manager St. Louis, Willie Mays may go into service any day and Irvin is out for Nelson, forced to operate under the stringent NCAA out-of-season By JOE HUKILL Morning News Sports Writer BENNETTSVILLE, S.

With Irvin out, Brooklyn should be a heavy favorite to breeze home. They're the solid club of baseball in eight positions.

But they couldn't win last year with Don Newcombe. How can they do it without him? The Phillies, with Curt Simmons back in mid-month, could take it all. Stanky's fire and hustle are sure to help the St. Louis Cards in a tangible way if his young pitchers come through. Boston's kids must all be Ty Cobbs to make the Braves a contender.

We'd hoped an operation wouldn't be necessary but after he failed to recover from that injury he suffered last year, Jack had to submit to surgery. But he'll be okay and I think Jack may be just the boy we need to help out at end. He's fast, he has good hands and I don't think the shift will be too tough." Another absentee Nelson would like to count on for duty next fall is Jim Eberle, the 250-pound tackle titan who ran afoul of the books during the winter and subsequently dropped out of school.

The 22-year-old pitcher expects to rejoin his Philadelphia- Phillies' teammates for their National League opener at the Polo Grounds April 15, but he'll only be moral support. Simmons stopped off at his home here, eight miles northwest of Allentown enroute to Camp Kilmer. N. for separation from the Army. "I don't know how that rumor about me pitching the opener got started, but anybody who knows baseball should realize that you can't lay off big league ball for almost two years and step right out on the mound," said Simmons.

"Why I really won't know how long it will take me to get in condition until I actually start to work. It's the legs you have to work on. And when, you've laid off as long as I have, the old control ain't what it used to be," said the dark haired Let's look them over a little more closely. Take the Giants first because they won it last year. Maglie Called 'Big Man' Maglie, one of the better pitchers in baseball, is the big man of the staff.

He's the fellow who beats Brooklyn for you wins the games you have to win. With Jansen, Hearn, Dave Koslo and Max Lanier following in regular order, Durocher gets first class pitching every day. His staff had the best record in the league last year and added cagey Lanier, a prewar headache to Brooklyn. Durocher must come up with another outfielder, or perhaps a hard hitting third baseman like Bob Elliott to plug that gap) created by Irvin's injury. With everything at stake, the Giants front office can be counted on to go to bat for Durocher.

Dodger chances depend on Manager Chuck Dressen's ability to find a replacement for Don Newcombe, the 20-game winner, now in the Army. Dressen counts on Clem Labine, a late-season star, but it's a long hop from Labine 's 5-1 to Newk's 20-9.

As Nelson explained: "We're not going to improve offensively because, frankly, I don't see how the team can improve much on last year's record. We averaged about 350 yards a game. With a strong defense, that kind of offense will be gocd enough.

Like I said last year at this time, if we come up with boys capable of stopping the other fellow when he has the ball, we'll do all right when we have it.

Simmons said today he hadn't thrown a ball out of doors since the 28th went overseas in November, 1951. "All the pitching I've done has been indoors. You can't really get in shape that way. You need the hot sun to bake your arm. It was mighty cold over there in Germany," said Curt.

"I know how it will feel when I try to pitch from a big league mound. Just like it feels when you first toss them up in spring training. Your legs are a little shaky." He said he'd prefer to stay with the club and work out every day rather than go down South and train with the Phillies' minor league teams in South Carolina.
