End Of Term NEW YORK (CP) -- Ford Frick, 69, under whose guidance the major league baseball map underwent vast changes and ex- announced his retirement as baseball commissioner when his present term expires next year. Frick told 'the Associated Press Wednesday: "'It's just what I have said all along. Now T've just made it official." Frick has been commissioner} since Sept. 20, 1951, and has a contract through Sept. 21, 1965. However, he said he was ready to step aside as soon as the club owners elect his successor and had so notified the 20 club own- ers by letter Tuesday night. "T'll stay on as long as they want me to--that is, until the end of my term," he said. "If they want me to stay around and work with the new commis- sioner for a while, I'll be happy to do that too." Speculation as to his successor immediately centred on Joe Cronin, president of the Ameri- can League; Senator Kenneth |B. Keating of New York and |Judge Robert Cannon of Mil- waukee, who has been counsel- lor to the major league player jassociation for five years.

It's a cinch Willie wasn't do- ing it for New York Mets, San Francisco Giants' star centre fielder showed up at Shea Stadium Wednesday night nursing a heavy cold and when manager Alvin Dark made out his lineup, Mays wasn't in it. But five minutes before game time Willie decided to play. The say-hey kid then clouted two home runs, his 30th and 3ist of the season and the Giants de- feated the Mets 4-1. "These guys are trying to get Dark fired,' Mays said, "I've got to help the man." Dark's position as manager was reported shaky following racial remarks attributed to him by a. Long Island newspa- per. Dark denied the quotes to} reporters Tuesday and then held a club meeting-to explain] his position to the players Wed- nesday.
