Bosox’ Mauch Wins
2B Job at ‘Old’ 31
NEW YORK, the age
of 31 when most ball players have
made it or quit trying, Gene Mauch
finally has won a job as a regular
in the majors. With a .356 average
for 11 games, Mauch has been the
surprise of the spring with the
Boston Red Sox.
Boston is the seventh big league
stop, including two brief whirls

with Brooklyn, for the veteran
who broke into the Dodger organ
ization way back in 1943. On the
way he spent one season as a
player-manager at Atlanta.
“I have to prove to myself that
I can do it,” said the determined
infielder. “This is the best chance
I ever had and I’m going to make
the most of it.
“There were opportunities be
fore but I was not ready^. If I had
been a good ball player then, I
would have made it. I just didn’t
hit at all, period.”
The records show Mauch had a
puny .216 lifetime average in the
majors with Brooklyn, Pittsburgh,
Chicago, the Boston Braves, St.
Louis Cardinals and the Red Sox.
He played seven games at Boston
last fall after he was purchased
for a reported $75,000 from Los
Angeles where he batted .348.

All who aspire to be cool men on the campus should take careful note of
the attire of the really well dressed operator, shown above.
Quiet, good taste is the motif, as may be seen in the conservative cut of
the suit. Every item of apparel pictured may be readily obtained by hand
ing your haberdasher a blank check and pronouncing the words, “Ivy me
up, please.”
The black eye patch produces a striking effect if handled correctly. It is
not even necessary to destroy the sight of one eye. Although some cats,
striving for realism, have done so and claim it makes a much more sympa
thetic relationship with the opposite sex.
It is also considered good form to display a National College Life Policy
somewhere on your person. Marks you as an up-and-coming young man
with an eye to the future. The possession of a National College Life Plan
is indicative of a man who knows his investments and knows his savings
plans. They are available only to college men. Talk it over with your
campus representative today.
