...Warren Spahn, 44, is the best left-handed pitcher in baseball history, but history is passing him by. For a long time, Spahn defied old age with remarkable success. He was 40 when he pitched the second no-hit, no-run game of his career, remarking later: "A fellow my age has no right to do that." At 42, he compiled a season record of 23 victories against only seven losses, thus winning 20 or more games a season for the 13th time.

Lefthander Sandy Koufax has painful arthritis in his throwing elbow, still leads the league with twelve wins (v. three losses) and 159 strikeouts.

Lefthander Claude Osteen, picked up over the winter from the American League's Washington Senators, has accounted for six, and "should have won three more victories than he shows," according to Manager Alston...
Last week Burns made quite a comeback: he was named the $150,000-a-year chairman and chief executive of Cities Service Co., will at year's end take over when President and Chief Executive J. Ed. Warren retires. Burns's background in the oil business is scanty, but he has other attributes to offer: he holds a doctorate in metallurgy from Harvard, worked his way from laborer to wire-division head at Republic Steel, became a partner in the management consultant firm of Booz, Allen & Hamilton and an adviser to 30 blue-chip corporations before joining...
