1 1 1 -PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1962. Around Mrs. Susman 'Staggers' to Tennis Victory JACK HERNON, -Gazette Sports Writer Bucs Help New Clubs It was about 11 months ago when the National League called in which for this season. During sent away six new teams. The four Bucs were grabbed off by Casey Stengel's Mets.
Now and then there have been co plaints from the two teams that they were dissatisfied with the talent which the other eight able." its meeting Houston and New the outlay of players to the Colts selected and two others Roman Mejias made "expend- None though has been heard regarding the players the Bucs put into the pot. Matter of fact the Pirates probably gave each team its most valuable member. Roman Mejias in Houston has led that team in all of the categories, while small. offensiveon ish southpaw, turned into Stengel's top pitcher. The other Bucs in Houston are Jim Umbricht and Hal Smith.
A fourth, Bobby Shantz, was dealt over to the Cardinals in a midsemester trade. Umbricht had to be sent to the Colts' farm at Oklahoma City, but recently came back and has done quite well in relief for them. Joe Christopher hasn't been much for the Mets, nor has Smitty, the catcher down in Houston. Neither hit much at all, spending most of the season with batting figures slightly past the .200 mark. Jackson though has to be classed as a bit of a surprise.

Virus-Hit Five Bowl Teams for Pitt to Bowl Over This Fall for the expansion draft, York stocked their clubs over $3,000,000, the Pirates But all of a sudden Jackson has turned out to be the 1 best with the Mets. He has won eight games and stands a chance of winning 10. That in be quite an accomplishment. Stengel has Al ear-marked with maybe six or seven others recommendations to the front office for a "good" raise in 1963.
Jackson deserves this recognition. For example, he is the only pitcher the Mets have able to shutout. Four of pitchese games account for half of his victories. Like many others on that staff, he has had his share of rough going. More recently, during a stretch of 10 days, he was beaten in 10 innings and again in 15 rounds.
Jackson was signed into the Pirate organization down in Waco, by Jack Berger. At that time Berger was trying his hand in the minors as a business manager, and is now the Buc publicity boss. Al talked this spring about pitching for the Mets and he wasn't at all sure he could handle the job. He was a bit gun shy of the majors. He didn't know if he was good enough to pitch against the big boys.
There wasn't much opportunity with the Pirates to find out for himself but in New York, he took his chances. Now he has learned the art of doing his job. He plans returning to complete his education at Texas Southern this winter, feeling a bit more secure as a baseball pitcher.

Mrs. Susman's postponed second round match was one of 11 completed before a midafternoon shower swept the West Side courts and washed out the rest of the schedule, further jamming the tournament already complicated by one day's rainout.

Rain and Mud Fail To Stop Pitt Drill Michelosen Stresses Defense In Prepping for Hurricanes By JIMMY JORDAN Post -Gazette Sports Writer Pitt's Panthers spent rain of the practice gridiron with defense getting the noon's drudgery. Coach John Michelosen, the importance of a victory in the season-opener, and also knowing that the Miami Hur. ricanes will be going all-out in their meeting with the Panthers a week from Satur. day, is leaving no detail, minor or otherwise, get by unnoticed. There was plenty of defensive work against the pass attack Miami's George Mira is expected to toss at the Panthers as the Hurricanes seek to atone for that 10-7 loss in a torrential tropical storm in the Orange Bowl last September.
Todav. weather conditions permitting there may be more work on the offensive end of the game. Yesterday's drill was confined to defensive efforts to get past blockers to the ballcarrier, or passer. There was no regular scrimmage or any sort, a phase of practice which may not be used too much this season. Gary Kaltenbach, co-captain W.
Va. QB Injured In Scrimmage Pastilong Hurts Shoulder While Carrying Ball JACKSON'S MILL, W. Sept. 4 (AP) Sophomore quarterback Ed Pastilong was sidelined with a shoulder injury Tuesday at the West Virginia University football training camp here, but Head Coach Gene Corum said Pastilong would be out of action only "a couple of days." It was the Mountaineers' first scrimmage and it was staged in a heavy rain. Pastilong was injured during the morning practice when he was tackled while running with the ball.
Team trainer A. C. (Whitey) Qwynne said the 19-year-old Moundsville back was being X-rayed to determine the extent of injury. Pastilong, who threw for lunch with his arm in a sling but Corum said, "He's too mean out of action very long." aPstilong, who threw for three touchdowns in the intra-squad spring game, is considered a leading contender for the starting quarterback position vacated by Freddie Colvard, who no longer is with the team. Kiesling, Five Others Picked for Grid 'Hall' Sears, Bell, Bidwell, Mara, Storck Also on Helms List two hours in the mud and yesterday afternoon, better part of the after- knowing only too well and veteran tackle, missed yesterday's drill because of a mild bout with the virus.
