Over Yankees Snub of Vic Power

NEW YORK (GlobaD = Harlem
sports fans this week were ponder
ing the fate of Vic Power, sensa-
tional young player with the New
York Yankees Kansas City farm
club, whose brilliant performance
in the American Association, many
feel, has. entitled him to a try in

Yankees called up four young play
ers; an infield, Jim Brideweser
from Syracuse; Bill Miller, a pitch

q catcher from Birmingham, and
Steve Kraly, pitcher also from
Birmingham.
Local fans contend that if the
Yankees needed strength, they
should have called on the versa
tile young Power, who not only
plays the infield and the outfield
with equal facility, but has made
quite a record, leading his circuit
In hits. total bases, runs batted

The Yankee ball clubs front Of
ice has been smarting ever since
thlS past winter when Jackie Rob-
Inson, in a television interview
openly accused the management of
the World Champions, of race pre-
Judice. The Yankee answer to the
charge was that they did not need
20 orlng up any new players, that
''hey had a strong club, and that if

Since the Yankee team has seen
the need for bringing up additional
strength at this point in the sea-
son, Negro fans felt certain that
young Vic Power would be given
"a chance; but recent events seem
to Indicate that he will not make
the big time circuit this year.
In the meantime, rumors were
circulated, later denied, that the
management of the Chicago White
Sox had made an offer for Power
General Manager Frank C. Lane
IN denying that such an offer had
been made, however, said that his
team would like to have him."
This has spurred further COM

their standing might have been to-
day if they had had the services OF
the classy little outfielder.
1t is reported from out ST. Louis
way that Dizzy Dean, upon being
asked if he would like to face
Satch Paige during BrOwns-Red-
legs Community Chest game, said,
do you want me to get killed out
pliment, or a glowing tribute, de-
pending on how you look at it.
Anyhow it was quite a pat on the
back from an all-time great who
has just made the Hall of Fame.
It seems we haven't heard the
last of close pitches despite rules.
After all, it's hard to say pitch
was intended when the pitcher de-
nies it. But the things that hap
pened recently in Milwaukee seem
to indicate that there is fast grow
ing between the Braves and the
Dodgers, the kind of intense rival
ry that has always existed between
the Giants and the Dodgers. After
all, Milwaukee wanted that flag
and they wanted it bad, and the
Dodgers were the ones to beat. 1t
is only natural that they should
press hard, and take defeat bitter
ly. 1t is still hard to understand.
however, how so many of their in
suits could be directed against Ne
gro players on the Dodgers when
so much of their own success is due
to the tellar performance of Bru-
ton.
Signing of the truce in Korea
does not mean that any of the
major league players will be re-
turned, at least any time soon. 1t
looks better for next year, how
ever. Don Newconbe should be
back with the Dodgers and Willie
Mays with the Giants.
Arizona sun., 1953-08-21

if there is a chance for Power to
play in the Major Leagues, the
Yankees should release him and
give him a chance to play with
someone else. Lane said further
that when, he talked to George
Weiss of the Yankee Management
about Power last March, Weiss
said. that when Power is ready for
major league ball, he'll get try
with the Yankees"
Local fans, taking all these
points into consideration, together
with the fact that one of the play
ers recently brought up was from
Powers own ball club, have been
bitter in their denunciation of the
Yankee management. They say
openly that Vic Power has gotten
a "raw DEAL from the Yanks. One
of them said, "It seems the Yam
KEGS don't want to give the boy a
chance in their own club, but they
realize he's ready if no other rea-
son. than the fact that other teams
have become interested in him.
Maybe they are afraid if they re-
lease him, he'll be back to haunt
them. It has happened before,
geuss, that clubs have released
players only to have trouble with
them as rivals the following sea-

Af Once In Israel

expert technical advice during op-
erations in Israel.
For its initial operations, Lapi-
doth has ordered one cable tool

Convention Host
The Atlantic City Auditorium,

nues, on the Boardwalk, is the
