Mantle Hits 494th Homer As Yankees Beat Cubs
Mickey Mantle blasted his 21st homer of the season to lift the Yankees 2-1 over Chicago and move into second on the club's all time list behind Babe Ruth. At 34 he says he can play three or four more years and notes his arm surgery this winter helped his legs feel better. Mantle also leads New York with a .290 average and is slugging at a pace rivaled by few. Separately, Kansas State University ROTC cadets receive $60,000 in new scholarships for next year, the largest grant total for any university in the nation.
