"With Tony Kubek back in the Army, Tom will be bidding for the job left open at shortstop this season. The young rookie has the potential to develop into a top-flight major leaguer, and Manager Houk will be watching Tom closely this spring.
Tom finished fourth in hitting in the International League last year."
