(Rocky) Rock- ingham, a relative newcomer to 8) , says the future of com- petitive skiing for Canada lies with the army. He's doing his best to prove it. The 52-year-old president of the Canadian Army Ski Associa- tion first st ago. "Tf a man is a good athlete, he's a good soldier," says the neral officer commanding estern Army Command. To whip up enthusiasm for the sport, he entered the Western Command championships last year. Most of the field of men half his age was left behind as he finished third in the slalom event. This year L. Cpl. L. 0. Berg of Edmonton won the downhill championship for Western Com- mand at the army's national ski meet at Valcartier, Que. Next year Gen. Rockingham hopes to get Western Command represented in interna- tional competition and Berg likely will lead the entry list. His Confidence in the army's future in the competitive pic- ture is based on several existing factors. GET THEM YOUNG "We get recruits at the right age, when they're 16 or 18, and we're in a good position to de- velop him when we find a good one. "The army recruit is in good condition-we make sure of that as a matter of course-and he's usually the type who enjoys thrills and adventure.

But the Milwaukee Braves southpaw wonder, nearing 42 years of age, makes one im. portant proviso. New manager Bobby Bragan must let him pitch every fourth day. "I realize that most of the other older pitchers like to work no sooner than every fifth day or perhaps once a week, but with me that's no good," Spahn insisted. "My arm is a creature of habit. It's accustomed to working every fourth day and that's how it must continue, Otherwise my arm has very little life in it." The veteran star, a 20-game winner a dozen times and holder of almost every south- paw record in the major league books, continued: , "Take a curve ball pitcher. ; |If he doesn't throw a curve, he loses it. If a fastball pitcher lays off his fast one, he'll find that it's not easy to get back. It's the same with me with pitching in my normal turn. If I don't do it, I just can't pitch." Spahn is going into his 18th full big league season the same as he did his first--working as hard and as long as anyone else on the squad. "There's only one way I know of getting into shape and that's by following the same routine set up for the whole camp," he 4 | said. To prove his case, the ageless Spahn has been moving at as speedy a clip as any player in the Braves' camp. Inside of the first three weeks of the exhibi- tion season, the Hartshorne, Okla., ranch owner has made six mound appearances. The last of these was a glit- MAJ.-GEN. JOHN M. ~ ROCKINGHAM By JOE REICHLER NEW YORK (AP) -- New York Yankees, solid at every position as usual, are being quoted at 1 to 3 to win the American League pennant for the third straight year. Never before has a team been made such a prohibitive favorite. The Yankees should win again but they need not have a cake- walk. At least six of the teams which trailed them last year will be better. They are Los Angeles Angels, Minnesota Twins, Detroit Tigers, Balti- more Orioles, Cleveland Indians and Boston Red Sox, Of the six, Los Angeies. and Baltimore appear to be the most improved. They call the Angels' third place finish last year a miracle. New adjectives may have to be coined to de- scribe Bill Rigney's crew this year, They could climb to sec- ond and may even give the Yankees a run for it. Minnesota, the Yankees' most persistent rival last year, should be just as good and perhaps better because of the year's ex- perience gained by the kid in- fielders Bernie Allen, Rich Rol- lins and Zoilo Versalles. Baltimore opens the season with new faces at four key posi- tions as a result of several Yanks 1-3 Choice OLD COUNTRY SOCCER | (Winners meet Rangers io the semifinals at Glasgow, April 13 To Take Pennant; L.A. Second Pick profitable deals that brought shortstop Luis Aparicio, out- fielder Al Smith, catchers Dick Brown and John Orsino, in- fielder Bob Johnson and pitch- ers Pete Burnside and Stu Miller. Detroit should be better if only because Al Kaline, the great outfielder, is in good health again, having fully re- covered from a fractured collar- bone which kept him out of ac- tion for half the '62 season. There is also a strong possibil- ity that Frank Lary, former 20- game winner--may be avail- able, The gritty righthander was sidelined with a sore arm virtu- ally all last season.
