York's F|y-Bo|| Phobio
Shared by Others
BY JOHN LARDNER,
Special Correspondent Of The Star.


NEW YORK. April cit all de-
ponds on how you look at baseball
Rudy York. Detroit's Cherokee
catcher, has a mortal terror of look
ing at the ball from underneath
though when it comes at him
horizontally, no matter how much
zip the pitcher gives it, Rudolph
stands ready to pound it back twice
as fast.
A fugitive from the outfeld,
where the sight of a tall fly caused
his fangs to chatter like castanets,
Mr.. York insists on playing catcher,
the only portfolio which carries a
mask with it. Behind the cage, he
feels pretty safe as long as they
feed him regularly and do not ask
him to come out while the ball is
in play.
Most catchers toss the mask aside,
for better visibility when a foul
scars off the hitterS bat. To Rudy,
however, this is the time when
prison bars are sweetest. A close
student of the law of gravity, Mr.
York knows that the ball is going to
come down again at faster clip
than it went up, and, short of
jumping the reservation, the best
thing to do is fight the unnamed
apple from ambush.

York's Phobio is Shored

Other great hitterS-and Mr.. York

It at all. Then, suddenly, it is on
