Teen Trying
To Be Best
Tennis Player
HOUSTON (AP) — Cliff Ri-
chey is a determined teen-ager
who says his goal is to be the
best tennis player in the world.
“I’m confident I can beat any-
body I play,” the 18-year-old
Dallas player said Wednesday
after advancing to the quarter-
finals of the 31st annual River
Oaks Invitational Tennis Tour-
nament.
Richey, ranked 11th in the
United States, took only 40
minutes to knock off sixth-
ranked Ron Holmberg of Brook-
lyn, N.Y., 6-2,6-2.
A crowd of 1,500 watched Ri-
chey handle Holmberg with
ease.
The four seeded players, Roy
Emerson and Fred Stolle of
Australia, Dennis Ralston of
Bakersfield, Calif., and Rama-
than Krishnan of India also ad-
vanced.
Emerson, the defending
champion and top seeded, de-
feated Jim Parker, Rice Uni-
versity, 6-1, 6-4; second-seeded
Stolle beat John pickins, anoth-
er Rice student, 6-2, 3-6, 6-1;
Ralston, third seeded, beat Cliff
Buchholz, Trinity University,
San Antonio, 6-2, 7-5, and fourth-
seeded Krishnan defeated Fritz
Schunck, Orlando, Fla., 6-3, 6-4.
Rafael Osuna, the Mexican
Davis Cup star, eliminated
Frank Froehling of Coral Ga-
bles, Fla., the fourth-ranked
U.S. amateur, 8-6, 6-4.
In other matches, Gene Scott,
St. James, N.Y., ranked No. 5
nationally, defeated Butch New-
man, Trinity University, 6-4,3.6,
6-4, and Hamilton Richardson of
Dallas, a former Oaks champi-
on, beat Harry Faquier of Cana-
da, 6*1, 6-4.
Emerson was to meet Scott
and Osuna was to play Krishnan
in quarter-final matches Thurs-
day. The remaining quarter-fi-
nal matches, pairing Ralston
against Richardson and Richey
against Stolle, will be played
Friday.

Mrs. Musial Discusses Life
Stan Didn’t Retire,
Just Stopped Playing
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Mrs. Stan
Musial burned her hand turning
a roast the other day and said:
“I guess this proves I’m just a
housewife.”
Lillian — friends call her
“Lil” — has been married 25
years to Stan Musial, who set
more records than any man in
baseball history during his play-
ing tenure with the St. Louis
Cardinals.
Musial now is, among other
things, director of President
Johnson's physical fitness pro-
gram, a vice president of the
world champion Cardinals, a
restaurateur and a successful
businessman.
“Life is more hectic now that
Stan has retired from playing,”
says Mrs. Musial. “He didn’t
retire. He just stopped playing
baseball.”
She said she would rather
have Stan play because-” at
least then he was on some kind
of schedule.”
Mrs. Musial is like most mar-
ried women. She worries about
what her husband likes to eat.
“Stan eats a lot of steak on
the road,” says Mrs. Musial.
“At home he likes stuffed cab-
bage, stews and other things
like that.”
She also said Musial likes to
barbecue in the back yard of
their modest home in south St.
Louis.
“We have our own barbecue
sauce made from a top secret
special receipe,” she says.
The Musials have four chil-
dren — Dick, 24; Geraldine, 19;
Janet, 15, and Jean, 6.
“I do a lot of driving,” Mrs.
Musial says. “I guess driving is
the way I spend a lot of my time
— taking Jean to school and
back, marketing and doing the
things that have to be done.”
She grinned and said: “I’ve
been trying to talk Stan into get-
ting a chauffeur.”
Mrs. Musial says she “usedto
do a lot of charity work, but
now things have tapered ff.”
The Musials are Roman Catho-
lic and are active in their par-
ish.
“I’m 45 years old now,” Mrs.
Musial says. “And I plan to take
up golf soon. After a person
gets to 40, they need something
to keep them in shape.”

1965 DODGE MONACO
Before you hit the road for the show... we’d like to tell you about some hits for the road. The
exciting new line of Dodges for 1965. First, there’s the Dodge Custom 880. Sheer excellence in every
generous dimension. Next, there’s Polara. Beautiful Polara stands out in any crowd. You’ll see that
for yourself at the show. Then there’s Coronet. With a choice of seven spirited engines, Coronet
steps out smartly without tromping on budgets. And Dodge Dart? You probably know all about
Dart. It’s the Dodge-size compact...big. Now that we’ve taken you on a tour through the rest of the
Dodge line, we’d like to show you the top...Dodge Monaco for ’65. There it is, right up there.
But why look at it there when you can see it in person. Let’s hit the road for the show!

KERMIT TRADE FAIR, WALTON PARK, APRIL 23-24-25

Associated Press Sports Writer
Everything looks just fine to
Leon Wagner, who is wearing
contact lenses to improve his
vision despite assurances from
American League pitchers that
there was nothing wrong with it
in the first place.
The Cleveland slugger they
call Daddy Wags zeroed in on
the Los Angeles Angels Wednes-
day unloading two home runs,
the second one leading off the
10th inning, as the Indians
pulled out a 6-5 victory.
The homers were his second
and third of the young season
and hiked his batting average to
a hefty .368, so his contact
lenses can’t be hurting.
“I can see the ball better,”
says Wagner. “I don’t know
whether they’re going to help
me hit more homers though.”
Wagner broke up the game
leading off against Ron Piche in
the 10th after first the Angels
and then the Indians rallied in
the ninth. Cleveland was leading
4-2—on homers by Rocky Cola-
vito and Wagner — when Los An-
geles pushed across three runs
in the ninth for a 5-4 edge.
Cleveland tied it with a run in
the bottom half and Piche
bailed the Angels out of a bases-
loaded, one out jam before serv-
ing the gopher to Daddy Wags
in the 10th.
In other American League
action, Detroit blanked Kansas
City 1-0, Chicago topped Boston
3-1 in 11 innings, Minnesota
ripped New York 7-2 and Balti-
more nipped Washington 3-2 in
11 innings.
In the National League, Cin-
cinnati pounded Chicago 9-2,

Wagner, who rocketed 31
home runs out of American
League parks last year, says
Colavito’s presence ought to
help him hike his total by eight,
maybe 10. “I almost would feel
bad about hitting those home
runs if Rocky doesn’t get one
too,” said Wagner. Daddy Wags
didn’t have to worry about Cola-
vito Wednesday.
The White Sox and the Red
Sox each pushed across a run in
the first inning with sluggers
Pete Ward and Frank Malzone
laying down bunts. Then Bos-
ton’s Bill Monbouquette and
Chicago’s John Buzhardt dueled
into the 10th before Moose
Skowron's two-run homer broke
it up.
Tony Oliva, Rich Rollins and
Jimmie Hall each hit two-run
homers as the Twins spoiled the
Yankees’ home opener. Camilo
Pascual and Gerry Fosnow
combined to pitch the eight-hit-
ter with Mickey Mantle’s 457th
career homer producing both
New York runs.
Rollins and Oliva connected
against Yankee starter Mel
Stottlemyre while Hall tagged
reliever Pete Mikkelsen.
The Tigers managed only
three hits but Don Demeter’s
two-out double in the fourth
produced the game’s only run
as Hank Aguirre and Larry
Sherry stifled Kansas City.
John Orsino’s first home run
of the year gave the Orioles
their victory. Washington’s Don
Zimmer had tied it in the sev-
enth with a pinch homer before
Orsino’s shot won it.
