Mickey Mantle has 2 tape measure blasts over 500 feet off
Camilo Pascual, as the Yanks win easily 10-4. For the 4th
consecutive opener, President Dwight D. Eisenhower throws

With a false beard and levis, microphone in hand, lurking in
the Washington Square fountain? Sounds like a Fang dressed
up in Cat's clothes. Mustbust early may, order from the DA.
