Oddsmakers Select AL As Favorite By JOE REICHLEK AuocUled Pmc.Spwit Wrfor BALTIMORE (AP)-A record big league Baltimore crowd of more than 49,000 was to jam-pack Memorial Stadium today for its first look at the underdog National Leaguers in the 23th annual All-Star Game. Although the Nationals appeared to boast the stronger starting line- lip, the were A 14 la 10 to win their second straight and their 15lh since the spectacle originated in J933. There was no game in 1945.

The odds- makers based their claim on the American's stouter pitching and a better bench, led by Ted Williams and Yogi Berra. Showers were forecast for late in the afternoon. The game was scheduled to start at 12 noon (EST). An added feature was the resumption of the rivalry between last October's World Series managers, Fred Haney of Milwaukee and Casey Stengel 1 of New York. Both wasted no' time expressing their determination to pull out all slops in an effort to win.

Haney hurled a couple of early surprises, naming Warren Spahn, his own left-handed ace, to open on Ihe mound for the National League, and selecting Willie Mays, the San Francisco Giants' slugging center fielder, as his leadoff batter. nominated his veteran right-hand- er. Bob Turley (12-3). to open for the American League, countered with a surprise of his own, announcing Mickey Mantle, the Yankees' strong boy, as the No. 2 hit- ler.

Stengel named Boston's Jackie Jensen and Kansas City's Bob Cerv his third and fourth hitters. EHler Side The selection of the 37-year-old Spahn (10-5) was perhaps the biggest surprise, since the A. L. batting order is packed with right- handed hitters. Leadoff man Net- lie'Fox of Chicago is the only southpaw; swinger, with Mantle batting from either side of the plate.

Haney, -in his first All-Star managerial attempt, 'opined that "a good pitcher doesn't worry about what' side of the plate a batter hits from. Also, Spahn is well rested. He' hasn't pitched since Friday. it is a real big ball park, and Spahnie likes to work in a big park." Double-decked Memorial Stadi um measures 309 feet down each foul line and 410 feet to center. A lolal of 1,500 temporary seats won't cut (he dimensions.

"I'll probably use three pinch hitlers," Haney said. "And I'd like to get them in front of Mays. That's why I put him in the leadoff spot. He's the hottest hitter our league and I want him to come to bat as often as possible. I'm here to win, not to shuffle players.

Management OfWUdlife Controversial By DION HENDERSON AiMdaM Pmt Staff WrHer Too many cooks not only can the broth-which is a pretty sneaky way In start a column on wildlife management but Ihey can keep most of the customers in a stew at the same time. Much less poetic are the controversies that arise when Ihe numerous agencies with a provable interest in the outdoors get their fingers into the operation. But it's been ever thus, since professionals started finding out that there are more complicated relationships in fish and game management than there are on Pilcairn Island. Latest state to get a once over lighly on the griddle is Tews, whose operations were reviewed- on request-by the National Wildlife Federation. But it could happen to any and if the truh were out, it probably has.

NWF's- summary, delivered to Sportsmen's Clubs of Texas said that "in general, Texas stale agen cies seem to exchange little information with each other and have modest knowledge of each other's operations. There is a great and common tendency to keep their operations to themselves." The study found that the Texas forest service, the board of. wafer engineers, extension service, agriculture experiment station, department of health, agriculture department, game and fish commission and park boards all are involved with sometimes-overlapping problems. Relationships between agencies was found to be generally moderate to fair the survey. But it noted that one of (he agencies involved figured is own relations with other departments was "poor to moderate." Let the man who figures his own state has no such problems set up lemonade for the house, and give his other blessings to the poor.

Braves' Gate Reported Low i MILWAUKEE (AP) The Milwaukee Braves, a National League attendance record of last year when they won the world championship, will be lucky to reach the two-million mark this season. William Eberly; the Braves' ticket director, said Monday that there is a possibility the attendance will be the lowest in The club's six years here. With the halfway mark o( the season behind them, the Braves have drawn 892,276 for dates. That is under last year's total for the same number of dates. Their lowest season draw to date was 1.826.397 in Stengel arranged his starting lineup with plans for extensive changes- He'd like to get such sluggers as Williams, Berra and Al Kaline of Detroit in the game as quickly as possible.

"1 come here to win me an All- Slar game," he to beat the guy which I didn't do in the World Series." Neither manager revealed his pitching plans after the third inning. Each said it depended upon whether'he is ahead or behind. A good.guess is that Haney will follow with Bob Friend of Pittsburgh and Dick Farrell of Philadelphia or Don McMahon of Ihe 3raves. Stengel was almost certain to use Billy Pierce, White 5ox southpaw star, and his own Ftyne Duren, the sensational rookie right-hander who has been averaging a strikeout every two batters in relief.

High rv National Leaving N.Y. Brings Back Negro Ball By HARRY GRAYSON NEA Sptrtx Edilw NEW YORK-(NEA)- Frank Forbes popped his head through the door talking faster than ever about Negro baseball. "I campaigned for 35 years to get the Negro into organized ball," a i Forbes, a gray-1 i bustling man in the mid-W's i around like an ambitious recruit. "And when Jackie arid the Brooklyn club broke the bar- CEPEDA rier in 1947, they put me out of business." Forbes, you see, was the promotional director of the Negro National League in the East" and Ihe Negro American League in the West. As long as they relained their stars, these did well in major league parks by advertising names such as Satchel Paige, athletes denied-the right fo prove that they were of big league caliber.

But when Jackie Robinson paved Ihe way for Larry Doby, Paige, Minnie Minoso, Roy Camp- 'anella apd others to go lop cabin, only the Negro American League survived and it was reduced to four clubs and had a lough time paying the bus fare. The National League walking out on New York has had a tre mendous effect on professional baseball. Among numerous other things, according to Forbes, the Giants and Dodgers moving to California has pill Ihe breath of life back' in the Negro league. Includes Caribbean F6rbes, who first came to New- York in 1912 from Howard University in Washington to play with the Lincoln i a contends Negro Leagues, including those in the Caribbean, now are'organized baseball's principal source of talent supply. "In six or seven years," he predicts, "35 per cent of big Jeague ballplayers will be colored.

"Economics enter into In mighty few other lines has the colored boy such a chance to go first class. He's more willing than the average white boy to sacrifice at the outset while learning the trade. He'll take Class pay and ride buses. With an unlimited horizon in front of the players, each Negro' club now has from 30 to 40 aspi ranis in addition to ils regulars. "Then there is the situation.

Stickout players were in such that the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association, composed of more than 5jO schools, ruled that its athletes can play baseball professionally and still be eligible for other Confined To SMth For 11 years, the Negro league could not afford to send its teams East. The Detroit, Kansas City, Memphis and Birimingham clubs were confined lo the Midwest and Soulh. But with major league ball in New York only half the circuit was presented with a golden opportunity. Forbes, who is more recent years has been a trouble-shooter and scout for the Giants, lined up Yankee Stadium. His first doubleheader between Detroit and tyem- phis played to close to 10,000 paid admissions.

Negro league clubs cannot come East unless they have four lucrative dates. On the first swing, Forbes had Washington, Baltimore, Wilmington and NSw York. Now he has acquired a half dozen more stops--Norfolk, Richmond, Philadelphia, Albany, Syracuse and Buffalo. The result is that the Negro league now plays a 140 game schedule from Fort Worlh fo Detroit and Birmingham lo Buffalo. Developed Stan While wilh the New York Giants for 11 years, Forbes had a hand in the development of Willie Mays, Reuben Gomez, Bill While, Ossie Virgil and Orlando Cepeda: As great as Mays is, Cepeda, not yet 21, is Frank Forbes' pet project.

"The Gianls front office people acled as'though I crazy when I firsl (old'them what they had in Cepeda," he laughed.
