Running the Roost. And what was happening to the Cards without Keane? Nothing so terrible. Another old Redbird was running the roost: Red Schoendienst, 42, the second most popular man in St. Louis-next to Stan Musial, of course.

There are too many night games, too many coast-to-coast plane flights, too many tough young pitchers with that big new strike zone to shoot at. But then this year, there is Willie Mays, and Stan Musial sums it up pretty neatly when he says: "Common sense tells you nobody can hit .400-but if anybody can, it's Mays...
