IT know I've been feeling
WOODY since the injury, but ]
never could have told anybody
that Newcomb be deliberately
threw at me-" Jones said.
Don would never do that to
me. We're good friends. We've
always gotten along and always
had nice things to say to each
other when our paths would
cross. Besides, I'm sure neither
Newcombe nor any other pitcher
would throw at a fellow with
the intention of hurting him.
Sure, he'll brush you back
once in a while. but that's base
ball. You've got to expect that.
I know if I were a pitcher and
a batter took a toehold and
swung from the hips against me,
I'd sure as heck brush him back,
too"
Jones blamed himself for get
tim hit by the pitch--a high
fast ball with a count Of two
balls and a strike.
THE ball was thrown behind
me-" he explained. II saw it all
the way and all I had to do to
get out of the way was bend my
head forward. But I sort of
paralyzed. l just couldn't seem
to move. Yeah. l just froze,
That's the first time such a thing
ever happened to me.
you can tell Big Don not to
worry. I'll be all right and ]
have no hard feelings"

Jones Leaves Hospital,
Has No Grudqe for Newk

CLEARWATER, Fla, Mar. 81
(P).-Willie Jones. released from
the hospital after his beaning
last Tuesday by Don Newcombe
Of the Dodgers, said today he
had been given a clean bill of
health by the doctors. He ad-
vised Manager Mayo Smith OF
the Phillies he would be ready to
return to uniform next Wednes-
day.
The veteran third baseman
will leave with the club when 1t
breaks camp here next Thurs
day.
Jones, taking in the exhibition
game between the Phillies and
the Chicago White Sox, said he
still felt weak and that the hear
ing in his left ear had been af-
fected about 10 per cent" but
that the doctors assured him
that would clear up within a
few days.
MY left ear still feels clogged
up. but that's because there's
still some swelling inside" he
said. Its no longer bleeding
however"
Jones said he bore no grudge
against Newcombe and reiterated
that he was certain the Dodger
pitcher had not thrown at him
deliberately. Jones had previ-
otisly been quoted that New
combe deliberately threw at
me-" but has denied it since.

Dear Mr.. Griffith:
I think the baseball contest
is a very good one. I entered
four times, but every time I
fill in an entry blank this
question puzzles me and a lot
of children: Can your parents
help you? This means can
your parents help you think
up a lineup? In the rules it
says people over prep school
cannot enter, but it says Moth
ing about the parents helping
the children.
Yours truly,
Barry.
Yes. parents can help. Barry
