Som Jethroe Was
Oldest Rookie In
Bio League Ball
BY BILL BROWER

Boston-In 1850, the Boston
Braves, which later shifted to Mil
waukee, acquired its first tan
player. He was Sam Jethroe, who
had such a commendable year in
his first season that he was named
the National League the
year.
During the recent all-star game,
the man who sold Jethroe to the
Braves was in town. Buzzy Bav-
vasi, now general manager of the
Los Angeles Dodgers, was serving
in the same capacity with the
Dodgers farm club at Montreal.
Earlier, he had been business man.
ager at Nashua, N. H., where Don
Newcombe and Roy Campanella
broke into organized baseball.
Bavasi was reminiscing, as many
baseball men frequently do, and
nominated as his candidate one Of
the fastest men in baseball Jethroe.
He proved it one night in Mont
real" Bavasi said, when he beat
Barney Ewell in a 75-yard sprint" :"
Barney was a former Penn State
dash man and a gold medal win
ner at the Olympics in London in
1913.
"Ewell had just come back from
the Olympics where he won a
sprint championship" Bavasi said.
II arranged 70 a match race be-
tween Ewell and Sam. We steamed
it up good. There was lot of bet
ting. Those Montrealers love to
bet.
The town was so hot we drew
1880 on Monday night, generally
the worst baseball night. Sam bet
on himself. Ewen wore track
spikes and Sam wore baseball
shoes. Sam beat Ewel by inches.
Barney wanted a return race, but
there was none"
What made this remarkable
was that Sam was 81 years old at
the time. We sold him to the
Braves two years later. He was
not only basebalrs fastest man,
but guess he could be called, at
80, the majors oldest rookie"
