he should be sent down to the

Of all Of US who consider baseball

the only qualifications a man should

has yet shown his true worth. He
came up as u shortstop, was trans

Montreal and now is playing first.
II is a tribute TO his sOlidness as
a man that he hasn't fallen apart
as a ball player. Less heat has
burned better ball players out Of
the big leagues. About him RACES
the silent upro&r Of a perpetual
commotion. He is the most dis

his judges do not evaluate him for
his actions on the field alone. But
he has concealed the turmoil with

there Is no indication he regards

Robinson for his alertness. Jackie
told me himself that Hughie Casey

But in the clubhouse Robinson
is a stranger. The Dodgers are
polite and courteous with him but
it Is obvious he is isolated by those
with whom he plays. have never
heard remarks made against him
or detected any rudeness where he
was concerned. But the silence is
loud and Robinson never Is part Of
