by an injured knee, has been
given his release by the Nets
and will retire from the game.
The 36-year-old outfielder
played IL seasons in the ma
jors and appeared in three
World Series with the Yankees.
He had his peak year in 1858,
with the Athletics when he hit
38 home runs, batted sos and
played In the 1All-Star Game.
Cerv's right knee, oper-
ated on q year ago, did not re-
spond 10 treatment and the
Nets were unwilling to wait any
longer on his comeback. From
his home in Kansas City, Cerv
said he was retiring from the
game.
Meanwhile, the Braves got
some good news when it was
learned that Outfielder Bob
Taylor, out with a broken col
larbone, viii be able to rejoin

He now makes his home in the

"The only time I ever rode

said.
II don't know many train

doubled for Gene Autry and

Baldwin, who was the envy
Of the neighborhood kids be-
cause he owned a pony and
later a quarter horse, became
friendly with Losen. According
to Baldwin, Losen broke his
neck in a fall. quit the stunt
riding business and acquired q
stable Of thoroughbred horses.
Losen made Baldwin his pupil
and exercise boy at nearby Ran

"I'll never forget the first

The death Of Davey Moore
from ring injuries has jolted

Although the main damage

while Pope John XIII cas-
tigated "fist fights" as "con-
trary to natural principles" and
''barbaric to pit brother against

Among the more vocal leg
islators were Senator Kefau-

who called for Federal regula-
ton Of boxing. and Representa-

York, who said he viii introduce
legislation to outlaw the sport.

Carey blasted professional
boxing as managed mayhem

who gets TO be q champion.
Kefauver said he would re-
introduce his bill-which died

Minor Tracks

ANNAFOLlS, mar. 20 NAf).
The House Of Delegates has
tentatively approved six more
days of horse racing apiece for
Hagerstown and Marlboro
tracks, thereby daring Cover
nor Tawes to veto a track con-
solidation bill upon which he
has insisted.
The Legislature at this stage
has added a total Of SO more
racing days TO the schedule
which the Governor wanted to
keep the same.
He already had given ground
by letting 1t be known he would
accept "a new nights Of racing
at three harness tracks.
The administration was vir-
tually put to rout last night on
a 77-4S vote to tack on IL more

Sylvester G. Neal, %, 733 Car
roll was arrested at the Ebony
Restaurant, GAG Selby Avenue
About 11:3O pm, March 8, as the
result of a surprise raid of the es-
tablishment.
A st. Paul police officer in plain
clothes purchased a half pint of
whiskey and a marked five dollar
bill was given to Neal.
Another purchase was made
from James Monroe, rs, US. Army
Headquarters, Third Missile Bat
talon, 68th Art, Fort Smelling.
Neal, who had been consuming

the sale Of liquor without a Hc-
ense.

The fact that Green, Power and
Versailles participated in this good
will campaign Is interesting, to say
the least.
While the three Negro players
were out on the road pitching
for the club and pleading with
the fans to buy tickets, the
Twins management failed miser-
ably to support those players
when confronted with the segre-
cation problem at the training
base in Orlando.
While the management of the
club was exploiting the three Ne
gro players as ticket sellers in the
far north, it was also submitting
to the demands of Orlando bigots.
The officials of Orlando refused to
drop the racial barriers in the
town, insisting that all Negroes on
the Minnesota club be compelled to
live across the tracks" during
spring training.
The Twins management meekly
accepted segregation. The Twins
are now training with the Negro
players separated from their white
teammates,
This situation is one Of the iron
les of our times. 1t demonstrates
dramatically what some owners
will do to cash in on the popularity
of players, and at the same time
subject them to the most humili'
ating conditions-if those players
are Negroes.
While Griffith's Negro players
were fattening his already bulgine
purse on their ticket-selling jour
ney through the snow and cold o
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa anC
the Dakotas, their owner did moi
think enough Of them to force tn
