something? The game looks a
lot different from up here than
it does when you're down there
playing it. 1t is easy to sit back
and criticize"
1t is Greenberg's contention
that the Cleveland writer's are
straining.
Those guys scratch for
every item," he said. '"They say
the public is interested in such
things as the number Of
tickets sold. You go see a
movie and nobody cares how
many tickets are sold or how
much money the actors got for
playing their parts"
There is agreement here with
Greenberg on one point:
sportswriterS, like political
writer's and drama critics, can
be over-critical. But as for at
tendance and the salaries of
ballplayers actual or estie
mated-these are matters Of
general interest, In this one

fans are interested in - the
players. not the front office
people"
The subject came up be-
cause the Chicago writer's, who
had to give UP such words as
"pepnant" and championship
in their daily dispatches, cur
rently are concentrating on
possible personnel changes.
They say Greenberg will resign
from his position and the ex-
home run swatter neither con-
firms nor denies the report. He
considers it a very dull subject.
His White Sox are not a dull
subject. though their play has
been, This was the team that
was supposed to give the big
challenge to the Yankees. In
stead, the Sox are at the bot
tom of the first division, their
noses just above the 500 level.
"The newspapers have kissed
us off," Greenberg said, "but
we haven't given up by any
means. We're not thinking of
1862. We're still thinking of
this year. We have 81 games
to play and this is much too
good a club to be playing 500
ball.
Il don't know what hap
pened. You can't blame it on
injuries. We've had some, but
so does every club. The relief
pitching hasn't been as good as
we would like it. This team was
supposed to be a contender"
Artistic failures they may be,
the Sox are holding their own
where it counts-in the finan-
cial column.
I'VE have the biggest pay
roll in baseball" Greenberg
said. I'VE have to draw 900, 900
to break even. We will finish
in the black"
The Sox already are over the
300. 900 mark. lust barely last
year at the same time, the fig
ure was 1,193,437. They are
down, but solvent.
&*
Cleveland is another story.
The Indians are barely draw
ing breath and rumors persist
that they will take their fran
chise elsewhere.
Greenberg says that If they
do. the Cleveland press can
take most Of the credit.
"The press there always has
the fans and players up in the
air." Greenberg said. IF you
keep on panning a thing, you
wind UP with disgruntled pa
Jronage. Those writer's keep
telling the fans what a lousy
show the club puts on.
Washington is lucky. That's
the best press in the league
there. 1t is tolerant and fac
tual. Chicago is great. too.

a tie with Triandos for the all

was his Tooth run batted In,
two more than the club record
of 98 he set as a rookie last

Gentle now stands fourth In

victory for Estrada.

not in fine shape, but they are
ahead of us.
with a system of defense,
and organization, we could win
a war. BY showing we are pre-
pared. we could avoid it," says
the Hungarian born scientist.
DR.. Teller warns the time is
short.
Soviet resumption Of nuclear
testing is frightening, he says.
For it could mean the Soviets
have been testing new weapons
secretly underground in the
past two or three years, and
have decided to make open
tests simply to answer some
final questions.
The SovietS knew open test
ing would force or irritate the
United States into more test
ing, and arouse adverse.
opinion.
But an edge won through
secret testing could mean "they
are so far ahead in weaponry
they don't care what we do"
DR.. Teller says "if we don't
prepare, 100 million Americans
could die in the first days of
an all-out nuclear war. Thirty
to-40 millions more could die
from starvation and disease.
The United States would cease
to exist"
But I firmly believe 80 per
cent Of our population could
be saved"
Nuclear war would be one
of the most horrible things
imaginable, and everything
should be done to prevent it,"
DR.. Teller says.
Not End of Everything
But, he says he is dismayed
by those who say that a nu-
clear war necessarily means
the end of everything" adding:
"The fear of radiation is
much greater than 1t deserves
to be. 1t is not true that radia-
ton, even from an all-out war,
would destroy all forms Of life.
"And it is simply not true
that if war came. everything
is hopeless.
I'VE can prepare.
"One third of our people
would not even be in danger,
because they don't live near
targets the bombs hit.
"One-third could be pro-
tected well enough by fallout
shelters.
"One-third would be in
trouble, but they could have a
10 per cent chance of survival,
if given decent shelters"
Evening star., 1961-09-13

dustries, cities, schools, homes
Democratic institutions would
function again.
Lingering radiation would be
a problem, but not insuperable
he says. The human race would
not perish. Nor would future
generations be destined to be
born as misShapen monsters.
DR.. Teller is convinced this
country and other nations
could survive despite the
"doomsday" fear which grips
and paralyzeS millions of peo-
pie in the face of nuclear war
Indeed. he regards this at
titude and lack of defense al
a temptation for a well-pre-
pared nation to launch ther-
monuclear war.
And it is an invitation tc
panic and wholesale, needless
loss of life If bombs ever fall
says the famous physicist oi
the Lawrence Radiation Lab
oratory of the University oi
California.
Survival Steps
Three steps could create the
defense for insurance against
war, or for national surviva,
