On the basis of his late
season play last year, Grady
Hatton is by far the best
third baseman in the game.
On the basis of Sam Mele's
strong hitting in late season
last year, he is by far the
most talented of the Sox left
fielders should Williams stay
in retirement.
In the face of these facts,
we dare Mr.. Higgins to re-
place Hatton with Lepcio at
third, and send Karl Olson or
Gene Stephens to left field
while Mele sits on the bench.
LEAKY INFIELD
There were times last year
when the Sox infield had more
holes in it than a hunk of
swiss cheese.
That's when Lou was trying
out the kids with Lepcio at
third, Boiling at short, Con-
solo at second and Agganis at
first.
All four of them were at
least one year away from
joining big league company.
AgganiS, due to his tremen-
dous aggressiVeness, offset
many of his weaknesses
through sheer determination
that will eventually make him
a star.
But the crudeness of Lep-
clio and Console was so no
ticeable that their most en-
thusiastic rooters were shak-
ing with embarrassment.
We felt that Boudreau's
policy of tossing the kids in
there for a couple of days and
taking them out, served to
gradually build up confidence
in a bunch of rockies who
should still have been learn
ing the fundamentals down in
Louisville.
And we still feel that Con-
solo, Lepcio, Boiling, and also
Agganis, woud have been kept
in Louisville for another year
If the Sox had not been so
desperate for players.
From all reports, the Sox
will be roaring ahead of the
parade in two or three more
years.
The real Red Sox stars of
tomorrow are not Lepcio and
Console. Nor Boiling or Olson.
They are strange names as
Norm Zauchin, Don Ludin.
George Keough, Frank Baugh-
man. And names that are not
entirely strange like Gene
Stephens, Fay Thronenberry

cerned. Higgins put on an IF
IF Ted comes back the

or FIVE others on the roster.
When they finally backed
him deep into the corner, how
ever, Higgins made a slip of
the tongue.
Eventually I'll pick out my
strongest combination and
stick with them"
That, then, is what Higgins
intends doing in 1855 that
Boudreau failed, or refused,
to do in 1854.
FANS WANT MORE
Frankly, we think the fans
will expect more than that.
And more frankly, it comes
far from justifying the unload
ing Of Boudreau last winter.
This business of shifting
your lineup every day or so
may be a frightening thought
IN Boston, but not so over in
Yankee stadium.
Boudreau'S critics seem to
forget that the champion of
all champions for juggling
line.ups day after day is Casey
Stengel.
He had no less than 86 diff
ferent combinations in the
field when he won his fourth
title going away back in 1858.
Among other manipulations
of his he used four different
left fielders; three right field
ers; five first basemen; three
third basemen and three sec
ond basemen.
Line-upS became so uncer-
tain at Yankee Stadium that
an ump greeted Stengel at
home plate one day and in
quired; "Who's playing be-
sides Berra today?"
And so if Higgins is serious
about picking a lineup at
Sarasota and sticking with it,
he's ignoring some very val
liable advice from a manager
who has won five world series
titles and six straight pen
nants.
1t may be alright to talk
about building from the bot
tom, during the process, how
ever, the fans of New Eng
land are entitled to witness a
half decent exhibition of
baseball.
RATED HONORS
BY mixing up his kids with
the oldtimers, Boudreau kept
the Red sox games on a major
league level, and finished
fourth in the bargain.
With what we saw at Bou-
dreau's disposal last year. his
ability to keep the Sox in first
division warranted naming him
the manager Of the year.

Communists Fear They Have Made Many
New Pucifists in Denunciotion of H-Bomb

Communist World Council is
sued a peace appeal to be
signed by millions Of sup
porters throughout the world.
In that appeal the statement
was made that atomic war
will result in the extermina-
ton of mankind" Frederic
Joliot Curie, son in law Of
Madame Curie, who discovered
radium, was one of the leaders
of the Communist peace move
ment in France. He made a
statement in January. 1858,
which was typical of all the
Communist propaganda on
atomic warfare. He said:
THE problem is to know if
humanity will accept the ruins
and the destruction and the
death of hundreds of millions
of human beings, misery for
those who survive, the possible
creation in this case of mon
sters and also the possibility
Of the abolition of all life on
this planet"
Again, in December, 1854,
the monthly magazine New
Democracy, edited by Jacques
Duclos. the number two Com
muniSt in France and the
leading theorist of the Com
munist Party here, devoted an
entire issue to the same sub
ject and played up the COM
ment that science now has
the capability of destroying all
life on earth"
Another article. by Roger
Mayer, a colleague of Joliot-
Curie, appeared in January,
1855, saying that fifteen hy-
drogen bombs are enough to
damage all of France and kill
half of the population and
leave the rest without indus
tries or work or cities in which
to live"
But on February 8. 1855,

spokesman in behalf of Soviet

Standing on the solid ground

Government or people. Both
for strategic consideration,
concerning the defense of the
Philippines, and for moral con-
siderations, we will do no such
thing But are we sure that is
what he means?
In any negotiations, how
ever conducted, the United
States, it seems to me, must
refuse to bulge from two posi-
lions. We must not allow Red
China to take back a former
Japanese colony, which had
previously been a Chinese
colony, on the ground that,
having been colonized by
mainland Chinese, it belongs"
to the Peiping government.
That is poppycock. No country
that is fighting "colonialism"
can sincerity maintain such a
stand. The right of secession
from a former colonial status
is either the right of all COL
onieS or of none.
Secondly, the United States
cannot turn over the people
of Formosa to, any regime
without popular consent.
Chou himself declared his
willingness to recognize any
government resting upon I'M
restrained popular consent.
We may argue whether any
Communist government full
fills such conditions, but we
can certainly see to it that they
are fulfilled in Formosa. 1t
is, in fact, the American way.
But beyond these two points
