jackie SaYs Hickey
Cove Him Best
Advance He Ever Had

BY CHARLES ]. LIVINGSTON
In the highly competitive field
Of sports, a timely advice from an
expert or someone on top often
goes a long way. Jackie Robinson,
former Brooklyn Dodgers star
once received instruction from the
man whose daring helped write
baseball history. Jackie calls it
The Best Advice l Ever Had"
The subject referred to here.
deals with an article by that title
in the May issue Of Readers Di-
gest, in which Robinson, now
high-salaried executive with a
prominent restaurant chain. dis
cussed an advice he received from
Branch Hickey several years ago,
but which has stuck with him
since.
The incident occurred in the fall
OF l945 when Hickey was president
Of the then faltering Brooklyn
Dodgers. the story explains. Rick
ey, whom Jackie referred to as
''one Of the finest men in baseball
tRickey is now chairman Of the
Board Of the Pittsburgh Pirates)",
had summoned Robinson to his Of
flee TO sign the agreement to
play with the Dodgers. The meet
ing was a momentous one and.
since he was about 10 become the
first member Of his race to enter
organized baseball, Robinson was
UNDERSTANDABLE perturbed. He was
especially concerned about fans
reaction.
Always frank and to the point,
Robinson put the question squarely
to Hickey, the story states. How
will the crowd take il, Mr.. Rick
ey2" he asked, "Will the white
fans get worked up? II they do,
what viii the Negroes do? II
things really got out Of hand, there
could be a riot"
Rickey's answer was Just as
frank Jackie" he said, ..
you will save yourself a lot of
grief if you don't look for trouble "
and he told a story to illustrate
his point.
Jackie, the Digest story said,
caught the hint and quickly dis
missed his fears. He realized, he
said, that ominous trouble is more
imaginative than real.
In the years that followed, Rob
inson went on to become one Of he
games greatest competitors and
his playing and courage opened
the way for scores of other tan
players to enter the majors. But
he also experienced many tcsty
situations in which Rickey's time
ly advice, Never look for trouble"
stood up.

Soy Giants Have
Real Find" In
Puerto Ricun Rookie

San When the trans
planted New York Giants opened
regular National League competi-
ton for the first time under the
San Francisco auspices, the teams
first baseman was a 2O-year-old
Puerto Rican who had made big
time with just three years Of
minor league experience behind
him.
Orlando Cepeda, picked by some
experts as the MIS- prime candid
ate for roohe-of-the-year, also full
filled the expectations Of Horace
Stoneham, owner Of the club.
Before the team was officially
switched from New York to the
Golden Gate, Stoneham declared
Orlando Cepeda viii open first
base for us in San Francisco"
After watching him in spring
training fielding more than ade-
quately and hitting quite robustly
there was no doubt that Cepada
deserved the chance.
OF course, he had arrived at the
Giants training base in Phoenix
with a substantial reputation. In
his three-year minor league career
he had led two leagues in hitting
batting 1893 with Kokomo undD
to lead the Glass d Mississippi
Ohio Valley League in 1855, and
