Mrs. Catherine Strachan takes
this method to thank the public
relations committee of Lanier Jr.,
High School and its faculty group
for the splendid way in which
they carried out the program at
Mt. Zion A.M.E. Church Sunday.
1t was indeed wonderful affair.
1t is hoped that their effort is APP
preciated by the public.
The committee is trying to
bring about a closer relation be-
tween the community and the
schools. We must remember that
united we stand, and divided we
fall. Let us take more interest in
our children. We have a challenge
to face, so let's get ready.

Lopez Denies
Offering Wynn
For Rivera

CHICAGO, April 10 (P).-

there is no truth to reports the
Cleveland Indians had offered
to trade Pitcher Early Wynn to
the White Sox for Outfielder
Jim Rivera.
II wouldn't give up Wynn for
two Riveras,' Lopez said. Wynn
is not on the block. He is one
of the best pitchers We have and

our pitching. That's our

The Chicago Tribune said the
Indians have been angling for
Rivera and that General Man
ager Hank Greenberg of the
Tribe started talks with the
White Sox by telephone Monday
and was due in Chicago to con-
tinue the talks today.
The newspaper said the Sox
nave rejected Cleveland's offer to
give Art Houtteman. 28-year-old
righthanded pitcher, for Rivera.
The Tribune said the Indians
feel they need a lefthanded hit

Larry Dolby to the White Sox for

COULD ONLY HAPPEN TO DODGERS
Flag Miscue Leaves
Brooklyn Faces Red

BROOKLYN. April Is tP.-
They say some things can hap
pen only in Brooklyn and maybe
they're right.
This sprawling borough also
mas the Dodgers, who do some
things that make sober Brook
lynites scratch their heads.
Usually it's the players who
oring the smiles. but today it's
the Dodger officials who. perhaps
dazed by the world champion
ship won last year, are looking
embarrassed.
Things progressed smoothly
until yesterdays opening game
with the Phillies was almost
ready to begin.
The crowd had risen for the
National Anthem. The players
were lined up along the foul
lines. The world championship
flag was tc be raised proudly
over Ebbets Field.
The band started to play.
Everett McCooey, who was to
sing the Star Spangled Banner,
was about to burst forth when
he hesitated, looked around and
beloved into the microphone:
Who's going to raise the
flag?"
No one had been assigned. A
Marine Corps color guard quickly
whipped into action and the fes-
tivities continued.

Season Opens
In International
BY the Associated Press


With a new team. five new
managers land predictions by
President Frank Shaughnessy of
a banner season, the Interna-
tional League opens its 73d sea-
son today.
The new team is Miami,
which replaced Syracuse during
the winter. The Martins are
managed by Don Osborn.
Other new managers are Phi
Cavarretta, former f1rst-base star
and pilot of the Chicago Cubs
who takes over from Dan Carne-
vale at Buffalo; Ed Lopat. who
replaces Luke Appling at Rich.
mond; Bruno Bethel. who re.
places Luke Sewell at Toronto
and Dixie Walker, who takes
over from brother Harry ir
Rochester.
Shaughnessy predicts total
league attendance of Q million
compared with 1.6 million last
season. He also thinks the race
will be a scramble right down
to the wire.
Toronto. Montreal and Ha-
vana probably will battle it out
for the lead. with the other five
teams fighting for fourth place
The only day game on today's
schedule has Montreal at Co.
lumbus. In night contests To-
ronto goes against Richmond:
Rochester is at Havana and Buff
falo is at Miami.

ing Don Newcombe. Jim Green
grass three-run blast got rid
of Newk in the third. Gran
Hammer homered of Ed Roebuck
in the fourth for what proved
to be the winning run.
Musial, out for his seventh
batting title. was hitless in four
trips before Joe Nuxhall made
his ninth-inning mistake. Vine
gar Bend Mizell. pitching his
first MI game since 1853 after
his Army discharge. was the win
ner, but needed help from Ellis
Kinder in the ninth.
Dale Long homered twice for
the Pirates to make Antonelli
work for his decision. Bob
Friend, the NILS earned-run
leader in IS, was the loser.
Burdette, despite four innings
of rain and snow, was never in
trouble and held the Cubs to one
hit in the last six innings. II
was Milwaukee's fourth straight
opening-day victory and ended
the Cubs string of opening VIC
tories at six.

Later, the public address sys-
tenn announcer told the crowd
that Gov. Hartman had signed
a bill creating an authority to
build a new home for the
Dodgers.
But. alas, it wasn't SO and
here's what happened:
Herbert Bayard Swope. a close
friend of the Governors. gave
the dope to Arthur Patterson
assistant general manager of the
Dodgers. Patterson lost no time
in letting everyone in on it.
"A regrettable error" Patter-
son frowned. I'VE naturally
thought that by the time we
made the announcement, the bill
would have been signed"
Said Swope:
"Averell said he was going to
sign 1t. Period"
Both Swope and Patterson are
former newspapermen. The for
mer was executive editor of the
old New York World and Patter-
son was for many wears a sports
writer on the New York Herald
Tribune.
But. shucks, what happened
yesterday was nothing COM
pared to the goings on when Eb-
bets Field opened in 1918.
On that day almost half a GEN.

got to bring along a key to open

Rocky Marciano retired and
Archie Moore inherited the
heavyweight boxing title, there

Moore said today. Nobody but

But Rocky isn't going to re-

George Parmentier last night.

last fight.
Man. it won't be any anniver-

Moore has 2 June date to keep
with Yolande Pompey in London
and before this defense of his
light-heavyweight title, Archie
must rid himself of several
pounds of lard. He weighed in
at 1893.
Why" Archie was asked, dc
you classify the current heavy
weight crop as zircons?"
Man." Archie chuckled. "they
all look like diamonds until you

Dodgers Bow tomorrow
Has Jersey City Excited

JERSEY CITY, April 10 (P).
Major league baseball returns
to New Jersey tomorrow for the
first time in Al years.
The Brooklyn Dodgers will
take on Philadelphia in the first
of seven National League games
to be played here this season.
A sellout crowd of 24,100 is ex-
pected.
The weatherman predicts fair
skies when Carl Erskine of
Brooklyn and hurry Dickson of
Philadelphia go against each
other.
New York and Boston played
two National League games here
in 1889. In modern times, the
last nonexhibition major league
contest was in 1915 when the
now-defunct Newark club was
in the old Federal League.
Enthusiastic Jersey City fans
longing for top-drawer baseball
since Jersey City's International
League team folded in late 1850
were to attend an open house
in refurbished Roosevelt Sta
dunn today.
School kids were given the aft
ernoon off by city officials, who
looked for a capacity turnout tc
watch the Dodgers take batting
and fielding practice.
Mayor Bernard Berry will
