There are many baseball

TAMPA, April l (NANA).-
Big league baseball-which en-
joys special privileges not
granted to other businesses,
clearly is not content merely
to operate outside the anti
trust laws. 1t is now pecking
away at the Bill of Rights.
No longer is Jim Brosnan,
the author, to be allowed free
dom of expression. He's been
muzzled by the Reds, Cincin-
natl chapter, who have ordered
the hterate, articulate pitcher
to put the cover on his type
writer and a clamp on his
tongue.
I'm not allowed any more
to write about baseball, talk
on radio about 1t or make any
remarks on television without
first having the gist Of the
statements cleared by the front
office" Brosnan said.
You're being censored"
told Brosnan. That's uncon-
stitutional."
obviously" Jim said, but
80 Is the reserve clause"
Brosnan is being literarily
and literally restrained by Reds
owner Bill Dewitt, who has hit
the relief pitcher where he
breathes with paragraph sc of
the Uniform Player Contract,
which allows the club that
owns . player to dictate not
only q mans conduct on the
field, but off 1t as well.
Best Seller
Brosnan wrote books and
magazine articles. His first
book, The Long Season, not
only was q best seller, but the
first authentic, hard hitting
look inside baseball which did
not portray all baseball people
as visitations from Olympus.

Brosnun's Gags Gagged by Reds,
Who Refuse Him Right to Write

Brosnan's second book, The
Pennant Race, was not up to
his first, but still much su-
perior to the public relations
pap that baseball officialdom
regards as literature.
Critic Dewitt didn't object
to the quantity, Just the con-
tent and he picked the time to
censor Brosnan when they were
negotiating Jim's contract for
this season and Jim was hold
ing out. Jim's version Of the
conversion goes like this:
Dewitt circled the clause in
the contract and showed 1t at
me-" Brosnan said.
why are you invoking 1t
against me?" Brosnan asked.
What are you going 10 do
about it?" Dewitt asked.
But why me2" Brosnan re-
peated.
Because you say things that
are not good for baseball" De-
Witt said.
No Specific Complaint
So Brosnan's pen is sheathed
and his tongue officially stilled.
If he is to be the arbiter
of what is good or bad for
baseball :" Jim said, leaving
the sentence hanging.

out that the conflict being
waged in Wet Nam is as much
political as military. so indis-
criminate killing may help the
Communists.
Free Bombing Areas"
Some parts Of Wet Nam are
designated free bombing
areas" where aircraft are per-
mitted to destroy virtually at
will. The military argument is
that people seen there
shouldn't be there anyway.
The psychological war advis-
ers would like to see more leaf
lets dropped in these regions
and more notice given to civil
ians that they either have to
leave or be killed.
These advisers also doubt
that the war can be won by
killing every guerrilla in the
country.
The old argument that the
only good Indian is a dead one
is still used In some quarters in
Wet Man," one adviser said.
This argument has been as
completely discredited here as
in the Old West"
He expressed belief that vic
tory will come in Wet Nam only
when the guerrillas themselves
are convinced that to continue
is pointless.
This is what makes the pro-
lection Of civilians of prime i'm
portance, because it is from
their ranks that the guerrillas
come" the adviser added.

Wet Nam Seeks Curb
On ViIIoger Casualties

SAIGON, Wet Nam, Dec. 10
CAP).-Innocent villagers are
often killed and manned In
South Wet Mans vicious war.
New combat procedures being
adopted by the Wet Namese
army may give them a better
chance to survive.
American psychological war
advisers report that more care
will be taken in the future to
warn villagers of impending at
tacks by ground and air forces.
Field forces will carry portable
megaphones. As combat troops
approach villages suspected of
harboring Communist guerrril-
las, they will shout out warm
ings for civilians to leave be-
fore the attack.
In the past. helicopter-borne
troops in their assaults on vii
lagos have poured heavy weap-
ons fire into homes to soften
up the enemy. They have
found dead women and chill
dren when they entered the vii
lagos.
The Communist Wet Cong
troops move from village to vii
lag seeking supplies and intelli-
gence.
People Have No Choice
MANY Of these people who
are forced to help them, or even
help them willingly, do so be-
cause they have no choice" a
United States adviser says. To
kill them along with hard core
guerrillas won't win the war"
Reduction of civilian casual
ties is a major concern for
American advisers. They report
more rapport with their Wet
Namese counterparts since Ngo
Dinh Diem was overthrown,
but the Americans still see
much work needed to help civil
fans escape the terrors Of war.
One aspect Of the war they
don't like is the bombing of
suspected Wet Cong emplace-
ments by the Wet Namese air
force. One adviser said:
Some of the targets are
genuine military detectives.
Others are only suspected
detectives. When the air force
goes in it leaves behind burn
ing houses and wounded and
dead civilians"
This is an old practice in
war. But the adviser pointed

Re-entV Into National Politics Raises
Possibility of G. 0. P. Kingmoking Role

To the surprise of nobody
save those MOSTLY emotional
Nixon-haters who buried him
deep last fall with absurdly
solemn incantations, Rich
ard Nixon has re-entered ma
tional politics. More impor-
family, he has re-entered in
circumstances raising the
possibility that he might be-
come the Thomas e. Dewey
Of the mid-l960s.
Mr.. Dewey, like Mr.. Nixon
evoked a strange, glandular
animosity from some going
far beyond what his I'M
doubted shortcomings could
in any way warrant. But Mr..
Dewey rallied from two Pres
idential defeats in the Forties
to become the Darkroom mas
ter of the Republican Party
at one Of its most critical
points in modern history
1852.
More than any other one
man he controlled the
G. o. P. convention OF that
year and led it to its deci-'
sion to break with the ortho-
dox Republicanism of the
late Senator Robert A. Taft
and so to nominate Dwight
Eisenhower for President.
The party he could not lead
from the vantage point Of
candidacy for office, Mr..
Dewey led from the vantage
point of kingmaker.
Mr.. Nixon, too has known
two defeats-first his loss
of the Presidency in 1860 to
John F. Kennedy and second
his loss to Pat Brown in
CALIFORNIA; gubernatorial
race of 1862. AS was the case
with Mr.. Dewey after the roof
fell in upon him in Presi-
dent Harry Truman's unex-
pected victory in 1913, Mr.,
Nixon may we'll be through,
so far as any personal Pres
idential ambition is con-
cerned. But, like Mr.. Dewey
in New York he has in vast
California a home-State base
of great power. And Cali
fornia is a State in which
the G. o. P. organization is
at all events not already in
the monolithic grip of any
other politician. There is
some room for maneuver
here.
And, as was true when Mr..
Dewey prepared to go to the
1852 Republican national
convention, the party for
1864 suffers an awkward sur
felt of Presidential poSsibili-
ties-the ideal set of condi-
tons into which an old pro
can move as a consolidating,

A Cuban Revolution Will Come

foreign countries. Nor is a
coming revolt advertised in
the newspapers or brought
out in public places where
tourists can see the prepara-
tons. Most revolutions come
as a surprise.
Potential revolutionists are
numerous in any country
where there is economic dis
content or where the tyran-
nical hand Of the ruler has
wiped out friends and rela-
tives. A general with per-
sonal magnetism and skill
fulness can often take over
an entire army by a single
stroke, and the political head
of the state will suddenly
find himself helpless to re-
sist.
When the anti-Castro rev.
olution does materialize. it
will not be initiated by armed
bands swooping down on
Havana but by officers in
the Castro regime itself, most
of whom will be patriotic
enough to wish to return
freedom to their people. The
day a coup d'etat" happens
in Havana, the entire army
will quickly 60 over to the
revolution. For In that army
will be thousands of Cubans
with starving relatives and
children threatened with ILL
ness as we'll as continued
famine.
Infiltration by underground
methods, supported by lead
ers in exile, is a primary in
fluence that helps to bring
a successful revolution. The
seeds of revolution are eco
nomic. Nikita Khrushchev,
for instance, has been politi-
cally wise enough to recog-
nize this fact as he strives
to maintain a reasonable
standard Of living. He, too,
however, cannot indefinitely
spend money for armament
that should go to improve the
lot Of 200,O0O,0O0 people. And
when the whole country
comes to be of one mind,
the standing army naturally
will respond to the concerted
will Of the nation.
