The Seaforth News, 1962-05-03, Page 7Gambler Didn't. Relieve in l„Iuck. Caries Arias dict not believe in luck. Many times, while playing dominoes with cronies, he de- clared; "Luck lust does no exist. Only my knowledge of this game makes it possible for me to win." His friends disagreed, pointing out that if there was not an ele- ment of chance then he would not receive the right series of dominoes so often. One evening, in his favourite bar in Mexico City, Arias, a thirty-year-old stonemason, was playing dominoes with his three friends when the bar doors swung open and two hoodlums staggered in, They began drink- ing heavily and their voices were soon raised in a violent argu- ment. A few minutes later a woman selling lottery tickets tried to persuade Arias to buy the "little orphan" - the last part of a twenty -ticket series, She said the ticket was lucky and urged him to buy and have a chance of winning $3,500 for an investment of a dollar. "No, senora," Arias replied, loftily, "I never buy lottery tick- ets, I don't believe in luck," When the woman persisted, Aria's companions pooled the few coins necessary to pay for the "little orphan," to be rid of her. As the woman passed over the ticket, several shots rang out. The hoodlums at the bar had drawn their pistols and attempt- ed to settle their arguments with bullets. After the first shot, the lottery ticket seller slumped to the floor - dead. But she had acted as a shield for Arias. Had she not been there, he, would have received the bullet. As police arrived to take the pistol -packing drunkards to the Tock -up, Arias, shocked by the unexpected tragedy, declared: "Thanks to this woman, my Tions are not orphans!Now, yes, I' do believe in luck. And I will always believe, But not only did Arias escape death because of the ticket seller - he also won a lottery prize with the ticket she sold him! Russian Flights Now Official The diehards still persist in questioning the orbital flights of the Soviet cosmonauts. But the International Aeronautical Fed- eration (FAI) in Paris, aviation's official certification body, has now formally entered the name of, consmonaut Gherman Titov along with Yuri Gagarin's in the flight record books. Titov was credited with two records. One was for distance traveled 436,651.8 miles; the other for time in space -25 hours and eleven minutes. (This is six minutes less than originally claimed, a reduction made be- cause Titov parachuted from his ship at an altitude of 21,325 feet.) Jacques Allez, the president of the federation, said the certifica- tion was made after the Soviet Union's Central Aero Club sup- plied. an "extremely precise dos- sier" on the flight. Martin Deck- er, U,S. representative tothe cer- tification sessions, was somewhat less charitable. He said the Rus- sians finally supplied "some sort of flight plan" plus radar graph±, formulas, and pictures after tough negotiations. "I wouldn't say it was precise but it was suf- ficient," Decker allowed after seeing the documents. Titov's certification left un- touched Gagarin's altitude record (189 miles), Therefore, no re- cords were left for astronaut John Glenn to claim on the books.' ID ISSUE 16 - 1962. SKINDIVERS FREED - Seven American SCUBA skindivers, including Mike Freeman, shown above, have been released by the Cuban government, which had been holding them for questioning, Time to Lay Off On Roger Maris? Squabbles between sports writers and athletes - especially big league writers and profes- sional athletes - are useless and boring. Not only does no one ever win, but both parties are usually damaged in one way or another, because facts always manage to. get distorted and words said that are not meant. Personality clashes are unin- telligent at any time, but their stupidity is multiplied many times when aired before the pub- lic. The most popular journalistic pastime down south this spring has been the silly throwing of typographical darts at Roger Maris, the young man who made history a year ago by hitting 61 home runs for the New York Yankees, Now, before getting any fur- ther into this humble literary effort, let me point out that Maris is not a friendof mine, I' have talked with him only briefly alone, though a number of times last season as part 0± an'inquir- ing group. Whether or not he hits 61 home runs this year, or 21 makes no difference to me. However, if any one of the critical reporters who have been blasting Maris with their type- writers would cool down long enough to dig into the situation. - to mingle with Roger's team- mates and get a truer picture of the sort of fencer* he is - they would, if they were fair, have to ohange their tunes in a hurry. There can be no doubt that Maris is a high-strung athlete, charged with a competitive tem- perament that often reaches, and passes, the boiling point. It is a mistake for any ballplayer to let' his temperament show, particu- larly in front of the press. ' But if you could have invaded the Yankee clubhouse last sea son while Maris was hitting home runs, and if you would have list- ened to some of the questions. that writersfired at him. day after weary day, you would, I am sure, have felt some_'Sym- pathy for the young man, writes • Ed Rumlll in the Christian .Sci- ence ,Monitor, Only those who have exper- ienced them can know the true burden of major league pressures and, whenyou consider the ever- increasing coverage of radio, tele- vision and the press, Maris must have felt more pressure late last season than any ballplayer in,the history of the game. It had to show in his reactions; there had to be clashes ofper- sonalities. VIaUAL SPACE - George Roberts visually experiences the mutton of space travel at his school where a model of the solar system Is used to teach the students. SKYSCRAPER - Sank= Cen- ter office building towers 306 feet above the streets of Cape Town, South Africa. It is the tallest building in all Africa. One of the more experienced Yankees told me the other day: "Roger is 'the. same boy today that he, was when be played for Cleveland and Kansas City, and when he first joined our club. He hasn't changed. He always was a bull deg; he, always had that fire and determination; he al- ways hated failure in anything he did. "Just how much can a boy take? How can you do anything but„admire what he did a year ago, dogged by the press, radio, and TV, and trying to do the best he knew how out on the field? '"Let lee tell you something about Roger,"; our spokesman went on. "There isn't a better team player wearing a Yankee uniform. IIe follows orders alert- ly and intelligently; he'll do any- thing to 'help win a ball game. And, as a matter of fact, so will Mickey Mantle. "Do you know how this situa- tion really got started? Because • a, writer . wrote a critical', story about Roger without even. talking to. him. Roger didn't even • know the fellow, because .he asked me to point him 'out. Naturally -the boy was upset. Wouldn't you have been? "Since then, of course, Roger has riled other writers because he immediately became suspi- cious' of everybody. But as far as the other • players, on the club are concerned,. this thing has been blown up all out, of proper - 'tion and is grossly .unfair to a kid who deserves a hand clap, not the' back ,of the hand." Said another Yankee: "The thing that surprises' me more than anything else is: that 'ex- perienced, capable newspapermen keep .failing for this line about Maris, a line that traces to one or'two, reporters who have al- ways taken the attitude that they're never wrong about any- thing. "I'venever been chummy with Maris. He hardly ever says much to me, maybe because I'm a pit- cher. But I respect him and take my hat off to him, and wish I could be in his shoes.. Unfair re- porting. such' as I've seen down here this spring hurts all writers, even the fair ones. You can't blame a ballplayer for not want- ' ing to talk."
