WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 28, 1960 Murtaugh For Series By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer PITTSBURGH (IP)—Vernon Law,. Pittsburgh's 20-game winning right-hander, definitely will pitch the opener of the World Series against the New York Yankees here Wednesday, Oct. 5. Law most likely will be opposed by Whitey Ford, the veteran left-hander, who has * * * been Manager Casey Stengle's nominee all season to start the important series. • If Ford goes, Pittsburgh Mana ger Danny Murtaugh will start his (!right-handed" lineup. That means Dick Stuart will be at first base. Hal Smith behind the plate and Gino .Cimoli in center field Murtaugh indicated ver y plainly that Law was his man, to he followed by Bob Friend, another right-hander, in the second game. Either Vinegar Bend Mizell or Harvey Haddix, both left-handers. will pitch the third game, when the teams switch to Yankee Stadium. Murtaugh is a man of few words but he strayed - from char acter when asked whether he had heard the whisperings that the Pira t es might tightenen up against the experienced Ameri can League champions. "Listen," he said. "we respect the Yankees but we're certainly not scared of 'em. We're not un derestimating them but - the Yan kees better not underestimate us. We got a good ball club and we're not worried about any pressure. Shucks, we've played under pres sure all year. ' "We've been underplayed all year. When we went into first place last June. the consensus was that we would stay there only temporarily. When we hit a• little skid and slipped into second place, the cynics said: 'I told you so.' "But we moved right back in there. What's the word for this club? Resiliency? "Any club that can bounce back as often as we did will not suc cumb to pressure!"

Penn State soccer coach Ken Hosterman feels that his boot , ers were looking ahead to Sat urday's game with eastern champion West Chester when they were upset by Bucknell last weekend, 6-2. Despite Saturday's loss Hoster man was not overly disappointed. "They had a full week longer than us to practice and we weren't in the best of shape, al though at times our wings dis plaxed good speed," he said. The veteran Lion coach indi cated that first-game jitters ac counted for the bad showing by some of his regulars, but he said he was pleased with the perform ance of sophomore halfback Jay Stormer. Stormer didn't start Satur day because of shin splints, but nevertheless he wound up as the most outstanding man on the field. He set up the Lions' first score and broke up many Bison drives at midfield. The return of letter winner Howie Farrar, the regular center forward on the '59 squad should give Hosterman much needed help on the front line for the West Chester game, The Lion coach is undecided about who will play center-for-, ward. He now has both Farrar., and sophomore Russ Naylor, who' scored one of State's two goals in the opener. "I'll just have to wait and ' see what develops," the Lion coach - commented as he watched his booters run ,through their practice session. Hosterman feels that he has come up with an excellent alter nate goalie in Jim Gottschlinger, a transfer from Ogontz, • "Gott schlinger has fast hands and had he been well for the Bucknell game, Jim would have seen ipienty of action," he said. - Rudolph Receives Medal NEW YORK GT ) ) Wilma -Ru dolph. winner of three Olympic gold medals, received the city's medal of honor 'and a citation from Mayor Wagner yesterday in a city hall ceremony.
