MM Wows iants Lose NEW YORK (AP) When else would the major leagues first Japanese player make his debut but at New Yorks Shea Stadium against the Meta? And who else would be the first batter to face him but a fellow named Smith? And who else but Met fans would give a visitor from 9000 miles away such a warm welcome that for a moment the youngster must have thought he was back home in Otsuki, Japan? Thus history of a kind was made when Masanori Murakami, a 20-year-old left-handed pitcher, only a little more than a year away from high school in Japan, struck out Charley Smith on four pitches.

The Giants lost 4-1 but the youngster, pitching with poise and control, permitted only one hit a single by Chris Cannizzaro as he retired the side without a score, striking out two batters. As Murakami, with a spring in his gait and a wad of chewing gum in his mouth, strode toward the Giant dugout, Met fans stood up and cheered. Organist Jane Jarvis got into the swing of filings, playing "The Japanese Sandman." Next seen, the youngster was facing the television cameras outside the Giant clubhouse, explaining through an interpreter, that he wasnt at all nervous in his big league debut.

"It fait good, he said. "I struck out first batter with fast baU. Other with curve. The hit was off screwball But other screwball I threw was strike. "I think hes going to help us, said Dark.

"Hes got a good fast ball, a good cA and outstanding contruL He vhrows strikes. He doesnt overpower the hitter but hes deceptively fast. And more important, he looks like he knows how to pitch. Also impressed by the 6-foot, 180-pound Japanese pitcher was Casey Stengel He pitched pretty good, said the Mets manager, and I'll tell you why. He showed control.

He knows how to stand on the rubber. He knew he had a man to watch on first. He never showed excitement Stan Musial Serious Giants Dropped To Fourth Belts No. 43, 44: Harmon Muscles Up AP Phot of ax Masanoris Debut It was a Punch and Judy show in the American League. Harmon Killebrew played Punch.

LOUIS (AP) Stan Musial whose baseball -feats and stamina helped make Mm the nations physical fitness director, collapsed of "complete exhaustion at Busch Stadium Tuesday night. Musial 43, a Si Louis Cardinal vice president after 22 years with file National League team, became ill at the game with Milwaukee and waa helped to the Cardinal clubhouse. There, he staggered and collapsed Into the arms of former teammates. An ambulance, escorted by several police cars, sped Mm to Jewish Hospital in the citys mid-town medical complex on the edge of Forest Park. He was hospitalized, and a physician would remain at least several days.

He was completed dehydrated by the time he reached the hospital, said Dr. I. C. Middleman, the Cardinals and Musi-als physician. "At times he was irrational.

Asked if Musials condition was serious. Dr. Middleman said, "No, I dont think so although it could become serious. His Mood pressure is all right and he is rational now. The all-time Cardinal great, who holds more batting records than any player in the leagues 88-year history, was suffering from viral entiritis wMch drained his strength, the physician said.

Dr. Middleman said Musial' condition possibly could have been caused by the heavy demands on his time in recent months. The good natured Musial idol of millions of American youngsters had been on the go almost constantly since last fall. When he retired as an active player in September 1963, Musial was named a Cardinal vice-president. Then, on February 14, President Johnson appointed him director of the National Physical Fitness program, saying no better man was qualified to set an example.

Friends had noted recently that the handsome, left-handed slugger with the ready grin fans called him The Man appeared tired. But he remained cheerful as always. demands on Stans time has been tremendous, said Dr. Middleman, and this entered into Ms general condition.

Cmmit-tee from Naperville, 111. NEW YORK Sue Jones and Jan Maigo Henne of Palo Alto Athletic Chib qualified first and second fids morning In the lOtmeter breaststroke in the U. S.

Olympic swimming team trials here. Miss Jones was timed in 1:20.5 and Miss Henne, from Menlo Park, was timed In 1:21.1. So where there are doubles and triples we are going to pick others to fill in the holes, Henning said. "That way well be Clem Daniels, a workhorse halfback. Is the key to the Raiders running attack.

"Daniels is a great athlete, said Davis. Our trouble is that we dont have anybody behind him.1 Glenn Shaw and Bobby Jack-son are fighting for the fullback job. Jackson is the former New Mexico State Master who came to Oakland from San Diego in a deal orginally described facetiously by Sid Gillman as a loan. Later Gillman said he was only kidding. Jim Otto, perennial all-league center, heads the offensive line that includes Proverb Jacobs and Frank You so or Dick Klein at tackles and Sonny Bishop, Wayne Hawkins, Ken Rice and Bob Mischak among the guards.

The defensive picture has been complicated by Dave Costas shoulder dislocation. Costa was a front line tackle. Dan Bird well and rookie Rex Mirich of Arizona State are working at the tackles and Dalva Allen and Jon Jelacic at ends. Jack Simpson and Clancy Osborne are the outside linebackers, with dependable Arch Marses in the middle. The defensive backfield has Fred Williamson and Warren Powers at the comers and Tom Morrow and either Joe Krakoski or Claude Gibson at safety.

Davis is high on two rookie linebackers, Dan Conners from Miami of Florida and Bill Bud-ness of Boston University'. Seriously, our big problem is tiie relative strength of the other clubs in our division and bow much their have improved. Kansas City handled us pretty good in our first exhibition. We beat Denver but that was before they got Jacky Lee. Everybody is waiting to kick the tar out of us.

Berth protected in case of illness or injuries. Well have top alter nates for our relay teams that way. Well name file full earn team, said Dr. Harold W. Henning, chairman of the U.S.

after Thursday's events. Thus, there is hope for those who have been taking steady beatings from Saari, Sharon Stouder, Donna de Varona, Don Schollander, Carl Robie and Kathy Ellis, all double makers of the team. Saari, winner of the 400-meter freestyle and second in the 400-meter individual medley, was heavily favoed to take file freestyle today. The B-foot-2, 190pounder was a loafing fourth in the qualifying heats Tuesday in 17:25.7. The top man was Bill Farley, 19, of Michigan in 17: 17 A Saari holds the listed world record of 17:05.5 but Australias Murray Rose has sliced it to 17:01.8.

John Nelson, 15-year-old comet from Pompano Beach, who made the team in file 400 free, was second in 17:19.5. Also on today's program are the men's 100-meter butterfly and womens 100-meter breast stroke. These are special events to qualify the first two in each for the Olympic relay teams, Miss Stouder became the first double winner of the trials Tuesday with a time of 1:05.7 in the 100-meter butterfly that bettered the listed world record. She now plans to enjoy her first break since April. Redwood Honors 49er Squad Redwood City fans of the San Francisco 49ers will honor the hometowners tomorrow at the Chamber of Commerce's annual Salute to the 49ers luncheon at the Veterans Memorial Building at 12 noon.

The team, which tost one member yesterday when veteran offensive end Clyde Conner was placed on the waiver list, will move across the street from its Community Park training quarters to break bread with the fans. Coach Jack Christiansen, who still is looking for a good running back to spell J. D. Smith and Don Lisbon, will allow himself to be put on the griddle tomorrow when those on hand will be able to fire questions his wav. Master of Ceremonies for the luncheon will 49er broadcaster BobFouts.

Conner, who has never been able to play any length of time due to a strong of injuries over his eight plus seasons, and hadnt played this year, indicated he would try to hook on with another dub. Cutting an Old Pro Is Rough Friendship is a wonderful thing, but it can make life a little rougher at times as San Francisco 49ers coach Jack Christiansen found out yesterday. In his first full season as head man with the 49ers, Chris already has had to give the word to several aspiring pro footballers that their services no longer were required. In short, they hadnt cut the mustard. Until yesterday, however, he hadnt been put in the position of having to break such news to an old pro.

That obviously produces a rougher situation for a coach, particularly when the old pro also is an old friend. Such was the case yesterday when Chris had to give the word to offensive end Clyde Conner, who was embarking upon his CLYDE CONNER ninth pro season, that he had been placed on the waiver list. Sooner or later, Jack said afterward, theres going to come a time when youve got to cut a friend. It had been pretty easy up to now. Chris admitted that Conners injury-prone history had much to do with the decision, adding that he (Christiansen) had been the one who sidelined Clyde with a dislocated shoulder several years ago when Jack was a defensive backfield star with the Detroit lions.

Clyde came into camp in real good shape this year, Jack continued, but came up lame before the first game and hasnt played a second We had an abundance of ends including some real good young receivers, he added. Injured players never are a luxury to be afforded, but this year, despite the increase in squad size to 40 players, the luxury is even more expensive. In the past, an injured played could be taken off the active list with another substituted for him until the former was ready to play again. Once hes off the active list this year, hes off for good unless more than four players are injured. -A If Christiansen thought that giving Clyde the word of his release was tough, whats in store for him next Tuesday when four more players must be lopped off the rosters? Its going to be tougher, he answered.

SANTA ROSA, Calif. (AP) -A1 Davis, the American Football Leagues Coach of the Year last season with a surprising 10-4 record at Oakland, is afraid people will expect too much this season. Our big problem is that the expectancy is so much great er, said Davis at the Raiders training camp. We beat San Diego, Kansas City and Houston twice each last year. Even if we split even with them, we'll be ony 7-7.

Last year doesnt count. This is a new season. Our problem is to stay where we are. The Raiders amazing success of 1963 has paid off at the box office. Davis reports an advance season ticket sale of close to compared to 7,800 a year ago.

Everybody is coming around to see if its true about us, he said. We have the smallest club in the league, a decent first team, but we need help. I hope we can get some help from the others that are so far ahead of us. Before stopping to wipe away the crocodile tears, Davis admitted, "We should be better in over-all intelligence about our system and in added experience. Davis has a fine split end in Art Powell whom he calls "the best in pro footbalL Powell reportedly was thinking of playing Canadian football but he is back with the Raiders.

Tom Flores, starting his fourth year of pro ball is the No. 1 quarterback, with help from Cotton Davidson. In addition to Powell Flores has flanker Bo Roberson and tight end Ken Herock as his top receivers.
