Is the modern ballplayer

They're not heavy because
they're made out of plastic and
lined with foam rubber; most of
them look like polo helmets, es-
pecially the Reds. l never felt
the need to wear a helmet. .
However, I'm for it, because &C
cidentS do happen.
would like to mention here
some facts about the so-called
"beanball or duster." The
brushback pitch is part of the
game of baseball. Once in
awhile a pitcher has to brush
back a hitter. But a lot of
this talk about intentional
throwing of a ball at batter

/. What was the longest win
ming streak in baseball by {
: team?
That, Of course, belonged tt
John McGraw'S New York
Giants of 1916. What a frus-
trating year that had to be for
Little Napoleon. The Giants
had two fantastic winning
Streaks that year. In the first
part of the season they won II
straight games and at the end
Of the season they went on
their sensational tear of 26
consecutive victories. Within
that 26-game win streak were
seven double-headers. Despite
the Sensational record, which
still stands today. the Giants
wound up in fourth place.
Their hated rivals, the Brook
lyn Dodgers, won the pennant
that year. Ironic justice, in
deed.
How many seasons did you
miss as a player?
Too darn many, I can tell
you that. I went into the Ma
rines at "a in 1943 and re-
turned to playing in 1916. In
1850 1 fractured my elbow in
the All-Star game and played
only 10 games after that. Then
spent most of the 1928
seasons in Korea. Other in
jurieS and other things, we'll,
you've got a good idea of how
much time I missed, but con-
sidering everything I'm CRATE
full for the opportunities did
have.
Does a baseball really curve?
Sometimes when I walked
back to the dugout while the
inning was still on I thought
so, but I like the remark that
Bob Teller is supposed to have
made: when I throw a curve
I'm not really sure it curves,
but when I swing at one,
brother, am sure!"

Bill to Boost
House Roster
BY 3 Gains
By the Associated Press

The House Judiciary Com
mittee today approved a bill
to increase the membership of
the House of Representatives
by three seats, to 438.
The bill, which has the sup
port of both Democratic and
Republican leaders in the
House, would save seats now
being lost by Massachusetts,,
Pennsylvania and Missouri.
Redistricting plans have been
worked out in Pennsylvania and
Missouri to take care of the
prospective losses. They would
have to be altered if the bill
passes.
The success of the measure
would appear assured. Repre-
sentative Celler, Democrat of
New York, chairman of the
Judiciary Committee, who OPP
posed any increase, said he
helped bring it out of the COM
mittee because of the solid
leadership support behind it.
Mr.. Celler said every effort
will be made to bring the bill
to the floor under a procedure
banning any changes, to head
off efforts by other States to
keep seats they are due to lose
on the basis of the 1860 census
Representative Walter, Dem
ocrat of Pennsylvania, is the
author of the bill. His meas
ure originally also would have
saved a seat in Illinois but T.
was amended today to limit the
increase to three.

Gen. Nasution has been wag-
ing a battle for control of the
armed forces for several years.
A big stumbling block to his
attempts was the Air Force
Chief of Staff, Air Marshal
Suryadarma, who had the back
ing of Mr.. Sukarno. Two weeks
ago, however, Mr.. Sukarno
agreed to dismiss Marshal Sur
yadarma and a pro-NaSution
Air Force chief was appointed.
Gen. Nasution already had
the allegiance of the navy.
Cracked Down on Reds
Everytime the opportunity
has arisen, Gen. Nasution has
cracked down on the Com
munists, particularly durin g
strikes in East Java and Su-
matra last year.
Indonesia is under a state
of martial law which gives
Gen. Nasution's regional army
commanders wide powers. Com
munist volunteers for the West
New Guinea campaign are being
Weeded out.
Gen. Nasution has little
trouble from other political
parties. Both he and Mr.. Su-
karno have expressed disillu-
sion with the parliamentary
system of government, and
parties have less power than
ever before.

Sukorno Gives Power
To Anti-Red General

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Feb. 6
(AP).-A bitter anti-Commu-
mist has become virtual heir
apparent to President Sukarno
and the second most powerful
figure in Socialist Indonesia be-
cause of the West New Guinea
dispute.
Mr.. Sukarno has been forced
to give vast powers to his Ma
tional Security Minister, Gen.
Abdul Harris Nasution, to guar
antee full support at home for
his militant campaign against
the Netherlands. ..
Gen. Nasution, 40, has been
promoted to deputy supreme
commander of the armed forces,
q post that gives him opera
tional control of Indonesia's
250,000-man army, navy and
air force. Mr.. Sukarno him
self is supreme commander.
Dedicated MOslem
Gen. Nasution, a dedicated
Moslem with a hatred of the
Communists, has won full al
legiance from the army during
his long career as army chief
Of staff, a position he still
holds. He has also gained the
respect of Indonesia's SO mil
lion people for bringing in
ternal rebellion to an end and
virtually restoring full security
throughout the sprawling ar
chipelago.
Mr.. Sukarno always has been
wary of Gen. Nasution's po-
tential power as chief of the
army, and has endeavored to
use the powerful Communist
Party as a foil to any chal-
lenge for power by Gen. Nasu-
ton.
Sukarno Needs Army
Mr.. Sukarno now needs the
army, however, more than he
needs the Communists to back
his statements that he will in
wade West New Guinea if no
diplomatic solution acceptable
to Indonesia is reached.
Gen. NaSution is a nation
alist and not particularly pro-
Western. But in one of his
books he commented that In
donesia inevitably falls under
the West sphere of influence.
His IndoneSia-first policy led
him to Moscow last year to
sign a reported $500 million
arms deal with the Soviet
Union. The willingness of the
Russians to provide the arms,
