AS the baseball season begins
to fade from view, let us look
over the record Of Jackie Rob
inson.
Jackie, former football,
baseball and track star at the
University of California at Los
Angeles (U.C.L.A.). has made a
great name, not only for him
self, but for the entire Negro
race in the field of sports, and
particularly baseball.
Jackie has been very poised
and reserved throughout his
brilliant career. He has met all
obstacles, and has proven his
worth. There might be those of
us who disagree with this state
ment. But if you will consider
the barriers. and obstacles he
faced at the start of his career,
you viii agree with us, that he
has overcome one of the Hsain
stumbling blocks, and that. be-
ing public sentiment.
Jackie Robinson has gained
the respect and admiration of
the baseball world. When we
speak of respect we mean his
sportman-like conduct in and
outside Of the ball park. Jackie
Robinson, the pioneer Negro in
organized baseball has stood high
in the competition for the Ma
tional Leagues most valuable
player award.
TO achieve such eminence, Rob
inson has had many big days He
has led he National League in
. many departments. Among these
are runs batted i'll, stolen bases,
and at enc time (early in the sea-
SOM he led both leagues in tri-
pies and hitting.
His batting average troughcut
, the season has been we'll over the
800 mark. In this department.
he has led such greats las Joe
DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Ralph
kiner and Stan Musial Being tho
first Negro in organized baseball.
Robinson bore many unprece-
denied pressures. But these did
not dull his skill on the bases or
at bat.
In l947, when Jackie was called
Up to the Majors from Montreal
