In commenting on the six-player trade last Saturday that brought Harrelson to. the Indians from the Boston Red Sox, Manager Alvin Dark of Cleveland said: "In Harrelson we've got a guy who can turn this club right around." The Hawk started inauspi-ciously by losing Joe Pepitone's liner to right field in the lights in the second inning and it went for a triple, but the Yankees didn't score. Then in the bottom of the second he led off with a triple to the 395-foot sign in right center and scored on Tony Horton's infield hit to give the Indians a 1-0 lead.

Bud Harrelson sent a sinking liner to right-center that Roberto Clemente, running hard through mud and water, gloved backhanded and dropped. It was a double. Tommie Agee and Jackson were explaining to rookie Amos Otis the hazards of having a locker next door to a star (Jones).

"You better move to that locker in the corner." Jackson cautioned Otis while trying to keep from laughing. "When Cleon comes off TV, there's going to he a mob of reporters around his locker. That means you won't be able to dress because they'll push you out of your lodter." Jackson, who occupies the locker next to Koosman, speaks from experience. "Last year I'd come out of the shower and I wouldn't even have a stool to sit on," Al recalled. wf I 'IPS iT lSw Silk' I remember Ken Harrelson riding a donkey around Yankee Stadium and almost getting dumped.

I remember Ken Harrelson misjudging flies in the outfield. I remember Ken Harrelson as the man who boasted he was the best arm wrestler, pool shooter, and golfer in sports. I remember Ken Harrelson defending manager Al Dark when the latter was fired by Charles Finley in Kansas City. And in a pique, Finley fired Harrelson which led the long-haired young man to money which in his wildest dreams and he had quite a few he never thought possible. I remember Ken Harrelson being put on waivers and there were no takers.

I remember Ken Harrelson hitting .194 in 1964 and being sent to the minors. I remember Ken Harrelson hitting 12 homers in 1966 and again in 1967. I remember Ken Harrelson hitting 35 homers with 109 RBI last season for Boston. I remember Ken Harrelson saying he would retire from baseball if the trade to Boston stood. I remember Ken Harrelson saying he would report to Cleveland.

I hope for the Indians' sake that they won't have to remember back to 1968 in order to visualize Ken Harrelson hitting enough to make the trade a good one for Cleveland. Other Things I Remember I remember when Jack Oakie, Tom Brown, Ronnie Reagan and Joe E. Brown used to run for movie touchdowns and showed that life in college was one big ball. I remember when there were three baseball teams In New York and kids would start lining up for bleacher seats at 9 a.m. for the Dodger-Giant games.

I remember kids sitting in the bleachers and passing paper on a string to the centerfielder directly under them in order to get autographs. I remember when all kids felt like Ken Singer of Paramus: "Baseball is in the heart of every young American. It gives a cry to root, root for the home team." I remember when there were two hockey teams in New York and I rooted for the losing one the Americans. It was a fun team because all the washed-up stars like Ching Johnson and Chuck Conacher would finish their careers with the Amerks. I remember when most outfielders hit .300 and pitchers were expected to go nine innings.

I remember the Brooklyn Dodger football team and Ace Parker, probably one of the all-time great tailbacks who could run and pass. His specialty was the jump pass which very few quarterbacks will try these days with 12-foot defensive linemen in front of them. Parker was also a baseball player who made it up to the Athletics they were in Philadelphia then but twice broke his leg sliding. Despite the injuries he played football, wearing a heavy iron brace on his leg. I remember when only the rich kids In the neighborhood rode bicycles.

And even they had to wait until they were nearly in their teens. Nowadays when you get to be five in the suburbs a two-wheeler is a necessity. I remember playing stickball and punchball and what we called triangle where some one pitched the ball on a bounce and you slapped it with your bare hand. Nowdays the kids wear uniforms and play a full schedule of Little League games. I remember a lot of things when each spring rolls around and one more year is torn off the calendar.

Yet in the world of sports you can remain a kid all of your life and there's nothing greater than that. son. DON CARDWELL Mcsjcr League Standings Nationc! League American League Why Koos and not Cardwell? "Because I knew Jerry was going to pitch a shutout," answered manager Gil Hodges jokingly. "How's that for starters?" Obviously, he was pleased toi see Kossman regain the form of his rookie year. "Seriously," Hodges continued, "either of them could have started tonight but Cardwell has a kink in his neck and we saw no reason of; taking a chance.

He was ready' though." Actually, there was more to the decision of using If the 25-year-old southpaw had missed his turn, it could have! shaken his confidence.
