NEW YORK l9 - The world

the first time in their 5l-year-old
major league history. have Negroes
on their roster today.
The Yankees became the 18th
big league club to acquire Negro

A great deal of attention will

Power, who was regarded in some
quarters as ready for the big

Powers outstanding work in the

Power, Yankee General Manager

the young Negro was not ready.

said, especially a Negro player.
The Yankees are eager to have

"a Negro player, but he must be
good enough to win a place on

Apparently the Yankees think
they have that kind of a player
in Power and Howard. They have
no doubt about Towards ability

question is whether he can hit

Power, on the other hand, is a

Return To
The Outfield
BY BEN OLAN

NEW YORK R--Johnny Lindell
the big guy who came back to
the major leagues as a pitcher,
may return to his second love
outfielding-if his batting perform
ance during the 1859 season was
any indication.
The 37-year-old knuckleballer led
all big league pitchers in batting
with a 1921 average. He cracked
out IS hits in 100 rips including
seven doubles, one triple and four
home runs. Johnny. often used as
pinch hitter, also drove in 19
runs, figures compiled by The AS
sociated Press showed today.
Linde1 came up to the New
York Yankees as pitcher in 1852.
He then switched to the outfield
for eight creditable seasons, reach.
ing his high water mark in 1914
with a 300 average in 149 games.
In two World Series with the
Yankees, 1S43 and AZ, he dubbed
$40.
With Hollywood of the Pacific
Coast League in 1852, Johnny again
turned to pitching, winning "a
games. He was purchased by the
Pittsburgh Pirates last fall, only
to be waived to the Philadelphia
Phillies Aug. 81. He finished with
6-17 record.
Mickey McDermott of the Boston
Red Sox was the only other major
league pitcher with better than a
800 average. The 27-year.old lefty
had 2S hits in SO at bats for .301..
Harvey Haddix of the st. Louis
Cardinals was second in the Ma.
tional League with .2S9 and Max
Surkont of the Milwaukee Braves
