FICTION VS.. FACT. Last week, in Lefty
and the Lady Braintruster," author joseph
Gies told about bright young female scien-
tist who convinced big-league pitcher that
it's impossible to throw curve Result: the
pitcher almost lost his job.
This week we move from fiction to fact.
Turn to Pages IL and 13 to see how staff
photographer Hy Peskin and writer Robert
H. Shoemaker for the first time prove con-
clusively that baseballs do curve In the
dramatic pictures accompanying the article,
a real curve-ball pitcher, George Bamberger,
is shown in action. Ironically, shortly after
Bamberger achieved the distinction of being
the first pitcher to prove for the camera that
curves are possible, he was sold to Oakland
by the N Y. Giants. But if his curves keep
breaking as they did for us, we predict he'll
return to the majors soon.
COLLABORATION. The poem, Welcome,
Son." on Page 20 came to us shortly after
Joseph Auslander announced that he and
Mrs. Auslander had become the parents of
noisy new boy. With the poem was the follow
ing note from the Auslanders: "Of our three
collaborative efforts to date - the first two
being novels ('My Uncle Jam and The
Islanders) - the subject of this poem is by
all odds our liveliest On publication day said
subject made the National Best -Yeller List,
and promises to stay there for long time

MACH mans drummer is invisible, but his music is

bass drum of ambition. Others again can hear only
the monotonous one-two, one-two of routine.
Among the crowd there are few who march to

According to reports Altering back, George Macek, manager of the Shamrock Lounge proved to be the star first baseman. Playing on the Stewart team, Macek took the command to cover first base literally-al- though his style was a bit unuS- ual.
 Joe Puhl drew the ever-diffi- cult job of umpire, made none the easier by one team demanding four outs to an inning. Although the Stewart team lost, they had nothing but praise @ for their opponents-lauding their fine sluggers Sherman and Nunnley. we had a great time," everyone agreed.
