THB NEW YORK METS The Mets, the new team in the National League, have set the stage for an exciting 1962 sea- son in professional baseball. Casey Stengel, the manager of New York's most recently formed baseball club,will aim high with first place in the league as his goal. A well-known big leaguer will be on hand at each key position to assure success for this highly tauted two and a half million dollar outfit. The infield presents Gil Hodgers and Bd Bouchee at first base, Charley Neal at second, with Elio Charcon also avail- able, and Felix Mantilla and Don Zimmer for the left side. The outfield first-stringers are Richie Ashburn, Gus Bell, and Thomas with B.G. Smith and Joe DeMerit in reserve. Hobie Landrith has been a first- string-catcher for the Giants, and he is counted on to present a strong front until Casey Stengel can appraise two young receivers. There also will be some good hitting in Thomas Ctwenty-seven in 19613 Bouchee, Hodgers, Neal, Bell, and Zimmer. At present, luck looms a large factor in the pitching BApSBpBALL'S HALL ,OF FAME This year two more Hgreatsn have been elected to the Base- ball Hall of Fame. They are Jackie Robinson and Bob Feller.

Wi? JWHXM How TO SUCCEEELIN BUSINESS M Kenneih Mwndelbwm nHow To Succeed In Business Without Really Tryingn is one of the most brilliant musicals to reach Broadway in many moons. I. Pierpont Finch possesses a valuable book entitled, UHow To Succeed In Business Without Really Tryingn. He intends to follow it chapter by chapter until he reaches the top. From the first time we see him high up on a scaffold washing windows, we know he will succeed. He decides on the World Wide Wickets Company. By the time the final curtain falls, Finch is chairman of the Board of the Company. Some of the cleverest scenes that have ever been compiled are found in this package. There are many lines that will have you Hrolling in the aislesin Much of the thanks goes to Abe Butrows, Jack Wienstod, and Willie Gilbert, the book writers, and to Frank Loesser, whose singable tunes are a constant delight. Much of the thanks also goes to Robert Morse for his brilliant comic performance. His shoulders and his face can curve or grimace and take the place of dialogue. He is crafty, conniving, and 92 wicked, yet somehow loveable. Rudy Vallee gives a solid perfor- mance as the head of the company. Thanks to the authors and producers, HHow To Succeed In Business Without Really Tryingn totally succeeds. w1fg1TE MB A MURDER Nwrite Me A Murdern is a new mystery by Frederick Knott, the author of HDial M For Murdern, a hit of several seasons ago. The play is one of fascination. In its three acts it weaves an amazing plot. It is not a who- dun-it but, a will-he-do-it. We don't realize until the finish that there is no murder in the play. Yet our interest never lags for a second. The play's ending explodes all over the theatre, and, when the curtain falls, we are left in our seats laughing gaily. Kim Hunter, as the wife,gives us a tense and lovely portrait. James Donald as the writer of a brilliant murder story makes Nwrite Me A Murdern one of the best mysteries in many seasons. The play is one of fascination.
