By JACK RYAN ' MM ft MM doesn't care: "I live in Kansas City now (actually suburban Raytown where he has just built a sprawling new home), and. that's what counts. Most of my friends-ar- e there." The Fargo incident helped deepen Maris' natural suspicions of anybody who questions what he does. It also convinced him that if he could take on Fargo and. win, he could take. on. anybody. When the first boos reverberated on his sensitive eardrums last season, Roger was advised to ignore them, Instead, he said: "They (the booers) are a, lousy bunch of front runners, that's what they are. flit a home run and they love you, but make an out and they start booing. I have as much love for them as they've got for me." Later, he said he wished he had apologized for the- - remarks. But he never did. smile at barbs and fend off bothersome questions with an ingratiating backwoods hujnor.f The gods of sport had delivered Roger Maris to the sacrificial altar on schedule, and Maris was most obliging, "If people are going to like me," Maris says, "they'll have to take me as I am. My friends understand me. The others don't count." - This may have been true in Fargo with the Maris boys standing against half the town. But now Roger stands alone in right fields across the nation in what amounts to open warfare kindled by newspaper communiques : "Maris the Whiner, a Threat to Yank Pennant," and "'A Busher,' Says Rogers Hornsby of Mr. Maris." His unpopularity so overwhelmed Maris this spring that he ran from clubhouse to apartment like a hunted man. Manager Ralph Houk finally called v for a truce among sports writers, at least. Houk got the truce, and ince then Maris has falt;eringly attempted to bring out the side of him which inspires great loyalty among teammates and unquestioning affection among family. freckle-face- d -- . the jeers swelled around fellow slugger Mickey Mantle, but 10 years with the same scapegoat is wearying.

Actually, he's a favorite among the cliquish Yankees. In the television room of the Yankee clubhouse, a wide sofa accommodates weary players after a game. Anybody can sit there, but tacitly it's reserved f or the most respected and ' best-like- d players. After one recent game, Maris stopped to congratulate John Blanch-ar- d on a homer. He was the last man in the crowded tv room but a spot on the sofa awaited, him, between bantering Mantle and Moose Skowron. game-winni- ng " , ' ' J Critics call Roger sullen, but wie Pat says he's Susan (on Dad's lap), Roger, Jr. (center, Kevin (right), and Randy (not shown) agree. good-nature- d. a MM MM S MM MM MM itcktd to death 7Vtyears.Tbenlfounda Hew wonder creme.Nou' I'm babtt.

I -- CURE MORE I GIVE MORE to AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY reason for Maris' The important expansive mood is his family his wife Pat (whom he met at . Bishop Shanley) and their four chil- dren, all under five. In his more despairing moments, Roger has admitted he looks on baseball chiefly as. a way of winning financial security for them; there is little love and no toward his career. ?ut he is stuck with it for the next 10 years or more and, much to his chagrin, so are Pat and the kids. "Do you think I like to have my t parents and wife read things about me that "areiTt "IroiTrirallxef'" up?" he asks. "Do you think I like to have my wife call me up and say, 'Your father wants to know what's going on what's the matter?' " The Marises obviously have been hurt by Roger's battles more than he has been,, and Roger would rather stifle his inclination to fight back than upset his closely knit family. By himself. Maris might go through life stacking chips on his beam-lengshoulders, but he realises now , he is not by himself. What he says or does hurts those he likes and loves more than it does his detractors "I'm Roger. Maris, nobody else," he frequently explains, "and I can't change that" But those who know his devotion to team' and family..think he's overestimating his surliness and characteristically playing down the nice-gu- y side. of a deserving hero.
