game in 1851 and has permitted
only "a in almost 100 innings
this season.
Eight years after he left the
Browns. in 1887. Earl joined the
White Sox as relief pitcher. He
had pitched to Joe DiMaggio back
in 1886 when the Yankee Clipper
played his first big league game.
Caldwell's last big league service
was with the Red Sox in 1948.
Caldwell is listed by the Har-
lingen club as 43 years of age, but
privately they'll tell you he is
somewhat older. Caldwell just
grins, but the Official Encyclo-
pedia of Baseball says he was born
on April 4, 1905.
The Texas League has him list
ed as pitching for Waco in 1926.
This is believed to have been his
first year in professional baseball.
Despite his age, Caldwell says
he could probably still go two or
three innings in the majors "but
not much more" Anyway, he
chooses to play here in his home
town, where he's in the citrus
business.

He got a job as a patrol Judge
at Tanforan and watched the
races as an official. AS part of
his job, he watched the motion
pictures of each race. Oddly, this
gave him the idea Of come

Those pictures were an edu-
cation in racing" Nick explained.

make myself. but they convinced

Comeback Road Hard One.
1t wasn't until July, l949, that
he started exercising horses at
the Hollywood Park meeting, held
at Santa Anita that summer. In
time he got a few mounts, but
although he was famous as the
winner Of two Santa Anita Handi-
capS-on Stagehand in 1888 and
Bay View in 1941-Nickie found
the going tough.
Tough, that is until he brought
home a 15-to-1 long shot, Sas-
sanid. That convinced the skep-
tics that Nickie was back on the
beam and again could ride with
the best.
Has Won Several Stakes.
That's just what he is doing
now at Aqueduct where his win
ners have ranged from long shots,
such as Tropical at $50. 20, to odds
on choices scuch as Wilful at $3.50.
He's won couple of stakes, too,
the Edgemere Handicap with Out
point and the Shevlin Stakes with
Golden Gloves.
Win or lose, Nick is worth a
two-buck bet anytime you're at
the track, particularly when his
mount is lightly weighted. Nick
managed to beat the great Sea-
biscuit three or four times in ma
jor stakes, each time when his
mount was getting big weight

HARLINGEN, Tex, July g.
Earl Caldwell, as secretive about
his age as an old maid but one
of the oldest active players in
professional baseball, is having
another big season.
This is at least his 9th year in
the game. It isn't likely to be his
last either.
At the halfway mark of the
Gulf Coast League season. Cald-
well had won 13 games pitching
for Harlingen's Capitols.
He is used mainly in relief, but
he's still the winningest hurler in
this class B circuit. Six of those
victories were gained in less than
three innings on the mound.
When the portly veteran at Al or
more. who looks more like the vice
president of bank than pitcher,
strolls to the hill, the whole club,
which averages approximately 20
years less than the published fig
ures in Caldwell's age. seems to
pick UP.
Earl has been the bellwether of
the Harlingen pitching staff for
two years now. Last season he
won % games.
The former major leaguer-he
was with the Athletics briefly in
1928. played with the Browns in
the mid-1930s and the White Sox
in the 40s-relies mostly on a
sharp-breaking curve. nearly per-

Board Asks Truman
To Support Boost in
Midshipmens' Funds

President Truman today was
urged by the Board of Visitors
of the Naval Academy to support
a $525 annual increase in the al
lowance for midShipmen to keep
them from going in debt on grad
uation.
Repeating recommendation Of
last year, the Board, headed by
DR.. Reuben c. Gustavson, Uni
versity of Nebraska Chancellor.
said:
THE increased cost of books
and clothing bear heavily on the
brigade of midshipmen who have
received 1896 a year since 1947.
Under present circumstances they
will be forced to run into debt
at graduation to provide the nee
essary outfit. We recommend
that the Government, in addition
to the present pay, should issue
bedding. text books, drawing in
StrumentS and slide rules to each
midshipman up to $275 and pro-
vide an initial uniform allowance
of $3.50, similar to that given
NROTC midshipmen."
The board. which includes edu-
Gators. businessmen and members
of Congress. made it's annual visit
to the academy from April Is
to 18.
In it's report to the President.
the board said the academy must
make something of a compro-
mise in its educational program,
Charged as it is with the highly
specialized responsibility for basic
education and training in the Use
of instruments of science and at
the same time with providing suf-
ficient time for development Of
those general and liberal subjects
regarded as essential to the highest
form of leadership"
Expressing satisfaction with re-
suits thus far, the board also
that Specific in
struction be given to the mid
shipmen on the need for economy
at all levels"
