GOMEZ A
POTENTIAL Is
GAME WINNER
FOR GIANTS

CINCINNATI (CNS) =
Ruben Gomez, the IS year old
'uerto Rican Negro, did such a
good job for the Giants against
he Cincinnati Reds, that Mana
Ter Leo Durocher predicts a bright
'uture for the pitcher. "He should
,e with us a long time. His only
'ault now is lack of experience"
avs Leo.
That experience Gomez should
soon get a lot of what with the
Giant pitching staff so sorely
pressed. In fact, as it now stands,
Gomez is the No. pitcher -
light behind Maglie, Jensen and
learn. Gomez chief asset is a
FOOD live fast ball and every now
md then he throws pretty
')affling ScreWball.

Jackie May Be Left
Out Of AII-Star Tilt

NEW YORK - (CNS) - For
the first time in his major league
career, Jackie Robinson may nc a
be named by the fans to the All
Star classic. Though it sounds in
conceivable that the fans wouI~
overlook Jackie after seven bril-
liant years, still the facts show
how the early polls are leaving
him out.
With the exception of his. first
year when he was first baseman,
Jackie has been a second base
man and the best in the league. It
was for his work at End that the
fans voted him year in and year
out to the All-Star. And though he
always had competition from ST.
Louis Red SchoendiSt and Eddie
Stanky when of the Giants. still
Jackie always managed to lead
among the top three in the nal
bs'loting for all National league
stars.
But this year though he's
probably the leagues most valu-
able player because of his YER
satility this same versatility
can cost him the honor of being
named to the All-Star. For from
the start of the season, Jackie has
been In and out Of three positions.
Starting at third base, he was put
on first short time to help then
Slumping Gil Hodges. Finally he
was reconconverted to left field,
where he seems prmanently an
chored.
Though Jackie has played all
three positions in a highly capable
fashion plus kept his average at
.342, which is the second highest
in the league, he has had little
time to do a stellar job anywhere.
The fans are confused as to where
to name Robinson. If they consid-
ed him for second base as in the
old days, he could be nosed out
by Red Schoendist who has been
pay AlIS opCILdGdAcL oGIOIlO OdSS
for the Cardinals all spring.
Meanwhile early polls of the
experts are naming Schoendist al
second and Jackie is being COM
pletely left out.
However, the fans decide, you
can be sure of one thing-Jackie
will play a few innings at the
request of this years National
League manager - Charlie Ores
sen. Dresser wouldn't think Of
making up any Dodger Lineup
without Jackie and he certainly
won't make up an All-Star line
up without the old pro who woulc
sacrifice his own personal glory
for the good of the team.

PENDLETON GETS
START

MILWAUKEE, Wis. - (CNS)
- Jim Pendleton, the Negro out
fielder who was traded to Mil
waukee from the Dodgers this
year, finally got to start in left
field for the Braves. Pendeton has
hitherto been used only as a pinch
hitter or runner despite his 1924
average but with Andy Pafko out
sick, Pendleton has finally gotten
his chance.
