Littlefield looks with envy on
those major league ball players
who fire back their contracts
unsigned and ask for more
money.
Dick has a contract from the
Dodgers he'd like to sign but

Jackie Robinson to the Giants
from the Dodgers.
Brooklyn got Littlefied, a

everything by announcing that
he was quitting baseball.

Littlefield is a Dodger. But all
that probably will change when
Jackie gets around to writing

"Buehler has been digging all
