Braves Bypassed
Willie Because OF
Poor Hittinq'

NEW YORK, April 18-The Mil.
waukee Braves, who were the first
to discover star Giant outfieldel
Willie Mays, booted away their
chance to sign him because they
felt "he would never be able to hit
big league pitching" it was re-
vealed today.
According to an article in the
new issue of Look Magazine
Braves scout Bill Maughn discov-
cred Willie while the Giants star
at that time still in high school
was patrolling the outer garden for
Birmingham's Black Barons.
Despite Maughn's glowing re-
ports. the Braves took the advice Of
another scout, Hugh Wise, who saw
Willie in action only one before he
wrote his report.
Wise, who saw Willie on one of
his rare off days at the plate,
doubted that Mays would ever be
able to hit big league pitching,
respectfully curve ball pitching
Look states.
Apparently, the Dodgers and
White Sox, who also had glowing
reports on Mays, shared Wise's res
ervations about Willie's ability to
hit curve balls.
In fact, Jackie Robinson, who
first alerted the Dodgers to Mays,
had that impression the first time
he saw him, Look says.

change in all things, and it ap-
pears that the field of sports is
no exception. With the refining
of rules in the game of baseball,
for instance, the whole sport has
become more genteel. With base
ball, heroes appearing on TV, en-
dorsing everything from cigar
cites and shaving cream to ency-
clopedias, it is necessary for them
to be personable and articulate.
It would seem, also, that the
interest of baseball generally is
best served by those who under
stand it as the big business it is.
Sports has become an important
industry in this country and there
are thousands of persons who
make their living in the field.
There are, in addition, thousands
of opportunities offered in sports.
Colleges and universities have the
responsibility of preparing young
people for participation in the var
ious phases of American life, and
sports should not be an exception.
1t would make sense, therefore,
for the powers that be in the base
ball industry to take greater in
terest in college sports, baseball
in particular. Colleges ought to
be encouraged to establish courses
designed to train young men in ev-
cry facet of the management Of
the sport. Certainly those boys
who enter college with the idea of
majoring in physical education,
would benefit from a course of
study that would give them an
insight into the whole business of
the sports industries, so that they
would be equipped to play, man.
age, coach and umpire. 1t would
be a fine thing for the sport to
have it run on high level by
specialists. 1t is our view that
organized baseball should give in
stitutions of higher learning every
possible encouragement in the es-
Establishment of such a program.

The Colonial Secretary said Brit

the consent of the Africans should

consultation always took place, the
government must be free to make
the final decision as to what was
to the advantage of the territory as
whole.
He said that although Britain
intended to administer Tanganyika
under the trusteeship agreement,
the responsibility for governing
rested with the British and Tang

them alone to settle what was

pie, he said.

French Airman Gets
Revenge by Dumping
GIs' Luggage Into River

PARIS R-French airman Jean
Louis fourier was held in Jail
today, charged with stealing lug
gage from five US. soldiers.
Police said he wanted revenge,
not profit, because a thief had
stolen his own bags in New York.
Tournier trained at camp at
Amarillo, Texas, and speaks Eng
lish fluently. Police said he went
about his vengeance like this:
The Frenchman struck up con-
versations with US. soldiers holt
daying in Paris. During the talk
he would observe, "You know, in
France we consider the numbers
between | and 10 COR another set
of figures unlucky."
The GIs often would reply,
"Why, my hotel room is number
such and SUCH" naming one of
the series Tournier had mentioned
before. fourier then would tele-
phone the hotel, pose as the Am
erican, and say a French airman
was going to pick up his luggage.
Once he had collected the bags,
Tournier would dump them into
the Seine River.

How Not to
Have a Home
Fire This Winter

Winter is the danger season for
home fires and calls for extra fire
safety precautions, warns the Ma
tional Fire Protection Associa-
ton, sponsor of Fire Prevention
Week, Oct. 9-15. More home fires
occur during the winter months,
when stoves and furnaces are in
use, that at any other time of
year.
Many winter fires can be traced
to defective or improperly oper-
ated oil space heaters, the NFPA
says. The association urges home
owners to thoroughly check all
heating equipment at the begin
ming of the heating season. And
all heating equipment should be
servIced by a qualified r~epairman.
Chimneys and fues should be
cleaned, with all chimney cracks
and hues repaired and loose NOR
tar replaced. SCOT caked in CHM
neys is a frequent cause of
chimney fires and homeowners
W thout tire-retardant roofs
should be particularly wary of
this hazard, cautions the NFPA.
Cluttered storage areas and
faulty electrical wiring are two
more serious winter hazards.
Cleanup of attics, cellars, and
storerooms is another important
preparation for winter fire safety.
Keep boxes and cartons a safe
distance from furnaces and heat
ing pipes. And provide for good
ventilation within storage areas
to prevent spontaneous combus-
ton.
It's wise, too, to replace all
or loose electrical wiring.
Extension cords and multiple
sockets deserve special attention,
the NFPA points out, because
they often develop short circuits
through rough usage. And home
owners should take great care not
overload circuits or use fuses
Of higher amperage than the wiz
ing can carry.
