Four Rookies Big Reason
For Dodgers’ Early Spurt
SAN FRANCISCO <^)—Three
23-year-old rookie infielders and
a 20-year-old outfielder who
played last season in Class A are
four big reasons why the Los
Angeles Dodgers currently are
tied for first place in the National
League’s Western Division.
“The kids have given the club
a lot more speed and enthusi
asm,” says coach Jim Gilliam,
referring to third baseman Bill
Sudakis, shortstop Bill Grabarke-
witz, second baseman Ted Size
more and the baby of the group,
outfielder Bill Russell.

The Dodgers, who finished sev
enth last year and eighth in 1967,
were minus center fielder Willie
Davis the first three weeks of
the season, and got little mileage
out of veteran pitcher Don Drys-
dale, who now is on the disabled
list with a sore arm.
ured in his early-season use of so
many youngsters.
“Sizemore came to spring
training as a catcher,” Alstoii
says, “but I wanted to try him at
shortstop because I thought he
had more range than Paul Popo
vich.
“He made some mistakes in
spring training but he was quick
to make adjustments. The more
I see of Ted, the better I like
him. He can catch, play the in
field and outfield, he can run and
he doesn’t strike out much.”
Sizemore played short until
Grabarkewitz earned a promotion
from Spokane and then Alston
shifted the reformed catcher to
second base.
Meanwhile, Russell, who won’t
turn 21 until Oct. 21, admits he
went to spring training hoping
to make the grade with Albu
querque, the Dodgers’ farm club
in the Class AA Texas League.
“The players’ strike was a
break for me,” Russell explained.
“There weren’t many players in
shape when we played our first
exhibition game and I had a
pretty good afternoon,” he says.
“But my big thrills were get
ting a hit off Jim Merritt of Cin
cinnati my first time at bat in
the majors — and getting my
first home run. The homer came
at Houston.”
But the four kids and newcom
er Andy Kosco, acquired in a
trade with the Yankees, have
helped the Dodgers get off to
their best start since 1957.
Ack Ack Pulls Out
Of Kentucky Derby
WET AND WILD !

News, Va., hang on to their canoe which upset yesterday
during the Loyalsock International Whitewater slalom
championship near Forksville, Pa. (AP Wirephoto)
Sudakis was hitting only .270
after the first 19 games but he
had driven in 11 runs. Russell,
who played for Bakersfield in the
California League last season,
was hitting .304 and his first four
safeties were a single, double,
triple and homer.
Sizemore was batting .338 and
had knocked in 12 runs while
Kosco was hitting .324, had three
homers and 15 rbi.

Wednesday as a seven-horse
field, headed by the unbeaten Ma
jestic France, shaped up for Sat
urday’s 95th Kentucky Derby.
Grabarkewitz was hitting only
.125 in the seven games since his
recall from Spokane, where he
played himself into shape after
breaking an ankle last year at
Albuquerque.
Manager Walter Alston admits
that several unusual factors fig-
The major surprise came with
the pull-out of speedy Ack Ack,
ace of Capt. Harry F. Guggen
heim’s Cain Hoy Stable, who was
still prancing and snorting after
winning the mile Derby Trial
Tuesday in track record time.
“We’re simply not ready to go
the mile and a quarter against
this kind of competition,” ex
plained trainer Frank Downie
Bonsai. “It’s like handling a
pretty girl — you don’t ask too
much too soon.”
Ack Ack was shipped to New
York to be pointed for the With
ers mile at Aqueduct on May 10.
The horse that finished third
in the trial, Fleet Allied, was
cleared in the historic race at
Churchill Downs as was Traffic
Mark, a dark brown plugger who
won the Arkansas Derby earlier
this year. With Ocean Roar, the
castoff son of Swaps from the
small tracks in Ohio, they form
the ragamuffin challenge to the
big four — Majestic Prince, Top
Knight, Arts and Letters and
Dike.
These are the seven names
likely to be dropped — along
with $500 checks—into the entry
box early Thursday. Each own
er must post another $1,000 when
his horse goes to the post Sat
urday at 5:30 p.m., EDT.
Size No Drawback
For Aggies ’ Seely
Most everyone knows by now
that Texas A&M center Jack Ko-
var came to Aggieland without a
scholarship and then won one
for his football ability.
There’s another in that same
category at A&M.
He is Billy Seely, a diminutive
young man from Brownwood
who is battling veteran Barney
Harris for the wingback job on
the Aggie varsity this spring.
