DAYS I'LL NEVER FORGET
Continued from page mine

I had lifted from Dads crab-ishing scow
down on the Bay. 1t was hard to tell as
came up to the plate with the oar whether
was a hitter or not / think I was caring
around 800, though, when Coach Ed White
of Francisco High School said one day he
thought could make the San Francisco Seals
if practiced hard. My answer was some
thing like, ''Sei nsatto da Iesare," am
Italian expression l had picked up from
my brother Dominic. Its approximate
meaning: Brother, you're crazyw
Outside of Dad, who was crackerjack at
Bocci, the Italian equivalent of bowls, all
the athletic talent in the family seemed to
center around my older brother. Vince. Vince
had been signed up by the San Francisco
Seals as spare outfelder.
One afternoon the same year was watch
ing through slit in the fence as my brother
shagged flies in the outfield A sandlot
scout named Spike Hennessey, who had
seen me play. came up and tapped me on the
shoulder. Listen, kid" he said, IN get
you into the ball park where you can sit down.
Not only that but l think / can fix it 50
you can practice with the team"
/ was about to give him the old 'Sei nsatto
da kgare" treatment. But he led me through
the turnstiles and had me shake hands with
Charlie Graham, president of the Seals.
Evening star., 1952-06-08

The next morning I reported for batting
practice and got the surprise of my life when
I hit one out over Vince's head. Before the
season was over had subbed few days at
shortstop. Next year as regular outfelder
I broke the Pacific Coast record by batting
safely in 81 games, and Mayor Angelo Rossi
(not one of the Olive Oil Rossis) presented me
with gold watch.
But the No. thrill of those greenhorn
days was neither the first nor the 6lst game.
Maybe you've got to be l7-year- old kid with
baseball busting out of your boots to under
stand But the heart-throb for me was that
afternoon when came out of knot-hole to
hear the owner of professional club say.
''Stick around, kid. Maybe you can practice
with the team"
Thrill No. z
IHE second thing that stands out in my
memory still doesn't have to do with any one
ball game in particular. It's rather period
of time, meeting of minds and men, veterans
and rockies in locker rooms, the donning OF
uniform - all of which may be called, the
making of Yankee"
Thrill No. stretches from spring day
when climbed into an automobile in Cali
fornia, bound for the training camp, until

In Homeopaths' Resolution
BY the Associated Press


CHATTANOOGA. Tenn. June
27.-The American Institute of
Homeopathy has gone on record
as opposing f1uoridation Of mu-

The adding Of fluorides to water
has been recommended by many
medical and dental officials as a
measure to combat tooth decay
among children.
Yesterday, however, the homeo-
paths adopted resolution con-
tending "fluorine is a deadly poison
producing or aggravating the
symptoms of many diseases, af-
fecting especially the heart, kid
neys, glands and central nervous
system.
According to our present
knowledge of the use of f1uorides,
their use should be left wholly to
the discretion of the individual
physician or dentist"
The resolution was adopted at
a national convention attended by
some ITS members of the institute
on Lookout Mountain.
