give Gentry JesSup, the Am
erican Giant star pitcher, an
opportunity to plug the hole
made by the departure of Lo-
pat. However, at the time of
this writing, the Sox have not
mentioned Jessup.
ALL the Cub and Sox man
agements have done is talk.
This idle chatter has become
tiresome and nauseating to the
fan. While most of our poll
ticians are screaming, "It is the
duty of America to keep the
world free" right here in Chi
cago these teams are trying to
exclude 1919 of our population
from Major League baseball be-
cause of their color. Is this
freedom? If such a thing is pos
sible the Sox are guiltier than
the Cubs, for they turn around
and expect Negro patronage to
keep them out of the red.
This is 1948, the year of the
fight for progress and Henry
Wallace. The people are tired
of being constantly split up so
that a few can rule. We are
getting together in a united
front and making history as
we fight for equal opportunity
for all in every phase of Am
erican life. And that includes
baseball, our National Sport.
We are going to show you
autocrats by our letters of dis
approval and at the box office
how we feel about your tactics.
We realize we have to build
fire under you to make you
move. The kindling wood is
being gathered. When the teams
come in from California this
year they are going to be re-
cipients of a warmer welcome
than they expect.
Come on, fans, let's go to
work and demand what in our
hearts we know is right. We've
just begun to fight.

Boxing

A blue ribbon coroner's jury last
week called the death of Sam
Baroudi, 20 year old light heavy
weight boxer, accidental"
They reported their findings
showed the circumstances relating
to the fatal bout between Baroudi
and Ezzard Charles were of a
character so unsavory and dis
reputable as to warrant whole
sale revision of professional box
ing regulations and ethics in the
State of Illinois.
They particularly indicted man
ayers, who by their greed and
cruel disregard for the public and
the welfare of their boxers, prosti-
tute the sport. They also recon-
mended the barring from profess
sional boxing of Mike Spinelli,
manager of Baroudi, for life.

"snes they had agreed
on a signal for McGinnity's famed
fooler, "Old SAL" floating un-

Thus it would be "Old Sal"
when Joe caught Trucks toss
back with one hand-the gloved
one.
For three innings Joe caught
all of Trucks returns with the
mitted hand. It got on Trucks
nerve, and spine, too. He began
tossing 'em at Joe's feet, over his
head. Anywhere to make the
pitcher use two hands. But Joe
speared them all with his gloved
claw.
FINALLY. Truck shot the ball
to centerfield. Joe yelled to the
outfielder, ''Stay where you are,''
sprinted after the leather-arld
picked it UP with his GLOVED
HAND.
Truck was licked. Thereafter
he caught "Old SAP through to
the finish without trying to vary
Joe's favorite delivery.
''That thing went Is innings.
Yes, old Sal won, 2 to L." Truck

Hoppe recollected, Twain rose
and told this one:
''Once, in Nevada, 1 dropped

knocking the balls around. The
proprietor asked me if I'd like to
play.
"I said Yes and he said, Knock
the balls around a little and let
me see how you can shoot

chalking my cue.
"He played and I ch ak d
through the game. When he had
run out his string, said:

What's in a Name?

HANS WAGNER, one-time great

rockies who once came up to the Pr
rates In the waning days of a season.
The manager wanted to try them out
at the plate, so he decided to give them
a turn at bat one day when his team
had lead of several runs.
The first rookie approached the plate.
Whats your name and who are YOU
batting for?" the umpire asked.
my names Riggs and Pm batting
for myself" was the fast reply.
The umpire's face crimsoned, hut he
allowed the remark to pass. To add to
his discomfort, the youngster singled
on the first pitch.
When the second rookie-a small.
shy boy-came up, the umpire was in
no mood for another wisecrack.
And what's your name and for
whom are you batting?" he asked.
The newcomer hesitated, coughed,
and blurted, boo"
This was too much. Flinrinp his
mask to the ground, shaking an angry
finger before the rockies face, the
umpire yelled, "Out of the game"
But the youth was completely in
nocent. His name was Boo-Everett

row asile seat was fattering, but, a
little disconcerting. She had learned
from long experience that listener
sometimes weighs the words of lee
turer with extra care in the hope of
finding something with which to de-
stroy him.
Nevertheless the speaker continued
her brave protest against the unfor-
tunate fate of womankind.
"For centuries" she rallied, "women
have been misjudged and mistreated.
They have been enslaved, Inundated,
exploited, ridicued. They have suf-
fered in million different ways"
Suddenly the little man in the third
row aisle seat challenged: "But there
is one way, madam, in which women
n.ver have and never will suffer-"
"And how is that, sir?" the speaker
angrily demanded.
The little man surveyed the audi
ence carefully and, making certain that
he had their undivided attention, he re-
piled: "They have never suffered in
silence"

MANY queries have been throw,

questions that come up most fire.
quently are:
NO. l.: Who are the outstanding
stars you have seen?
NO. q: Who are the leading rockies
VINO might make difference in a

Here are listed the outstanding
pitchers we have seen-Eweii
blackwell, the six-foot fiye-inch

well, with any sort of team support.

pitcher.
Hal NeWhouser of the Tigers is
another 25-game winner with a ser
ond-grade infield and onlv a fair
outfield behind him. Warren Snahn
ana Johnny Sain of the Braves, Muir
ny Dickson of the Cardinals and
Joe Dobson of the Red Sox also are
near the top.
We would like to see Blackwell
and NeWhouser with the Red Sow
or the Yankees. Both could pass
the 3O-game mark.
BEST 1NFIELDERS - Few real
standouts. No top first basemen.
PAIRING Musial; Kell of Tigers, the
best at third. Many good shortstops
BEST OUTFIELDERS - Joe Di.

daughter, the games tops. Cliff

calibre. WV
BEST ROOKIES-Curt Simmons of

AMY we can run second or third. So
