LOS ANGELES, Feb. 16.-A
Wheelchair basket ball team OF
paraplegic combat veterans ap-
pealed to President Truman to-
day to come to our rescue" by
permitting three Army hospital
staff members to accompany
them on a country exhibi-
ton tour.
The tour, the veterans said in
a telegram to the President, faces
cancellation unless a doctor, a
coach and a trainer from Birm-
ingham Hospital at nearby Van
Nuys are authorized to go along.
The veterans said appeals to
Veterans Administration officials
in Washington for such authori-
zation had been turned down.
The team had planned to COM
pete against other teams in reg
ulation basket ball games played
from wheelchairs. The first game
is scheduled at Denver next
Wednesday and others during
the proposed 14-day airplane

Tinker Calls Brown Grittiest
Man on Mound He Ever Saw

"But he forced Bresnahan to
pop up and went on to win his
18th game and the pennant for
u.s." Tinker said.
Tinker and Brown were TO-
gether from 1903 through 1912
with the Cubs. When Tinker
managed Cincinnati the next
year, he took Brown with him.
In 1914, Tinker became manager
of the Chicago team in the Fed
eral League and he got Brown a
job as pilot of the st. Louis club
in the same league.
Brown rejoined Tinker with the
Chicago Feds in 1915 and when
Tinker became Chicago Cub man
ager in 1916, Brown went with
him. Tinker acquired an interest
in the Columbus American Asso-
citation club in 1917 and was asso-
ciated with Brown until he came
to Orlando in 1921.
Tinker recalled that since he
lost his left leg from an infection
in January, 1947, five members OF
the great Cub teams of the 1900
1912 era had died-Sheckard,
King, Evers, Overall and Brown.
Only Pfiester, Ruelbach, Schultz,
Hoffman and Tinker survive.
