The Giants earned no credit for "social pioneering" when they brought Willie Mays to the Polo Grounds, but they did provide a beautiful opportunity and setting for the genius of a great young athlete of winsome personality. The fiants probably would have passed up Mays had not Branch Rickey, in Brooklyn, already driven through the barrier with the first Negro major leaguer, Jackie Robinson.

Within the brief span of Willie's career, which is still at least two years short of his inevitable fall, the apathy of his own people in Harlem and the risk of robbery, assault and other violence, especially at night. ruined the Giants' business and drove the firm from its sentimental old home, in the lee of Coogan's Bluff, to San Francisco. These phases of the greal undo their conscientious training of their children. JACKIE ROBINSON'S personality is not endearing in his belligerent insistence on a legal position without the slightest recognition of the original eager warmth of the white man toward him. A more pleasant man would have exploited this chance to the happy advantage of millions of Negroes.

There was such a man on Robinson's own club, Roy Campanella, the catcher, one of the most popular, even beloved, major leaguers of all time. Hatred of Robinson is not unthinkable, but who could think hatefully of Campanella? Brooklyn was a jovial if sometimes ridiculous institution, a litUe mad but so amusing that the Dodgers' eccentricities preserved their actual deeds long beyond a duration. Uncle Wilbert i wasn't sure he was going to keep a recruit catcher named Al Lopez, a blond Spaniard from Tampa, because "if you Kayoed Is Suspended TACOMA, Wash.

Yet. if baseball be as important in our national personality as the press and electronic "communications" make it seem, the suppression of the truth is unfair get one of those colored you got to get another to room with him." Like Babe Ruth. Uncle Wilbert was on names and faces and be had not identified Lopez even in the second week of the training camp. He supposed anyone named Lopez would be a dark Cuban. There were Dazzy Vance, a great pitcher but also a philosophical humorist; Rickey, who went to his knees and prayed for Leo Durocher after Leo gave the Hollywood underworld carte blanche in the Brooklyn clubhouse; Larry Macphail, one of the wild crew who tried to abduct Kaiser Wilhelm from Doom after the first war to have him hanged in Paris: and Babe Herman, who hit a triple into a double play.

Vanca called him "the colonel of tha cavalcade of chaos or the headless horseman of Ebbets Field." THIS TRADITION, to give a trite name to a treasure of the soul, could not maintain the Dodgers in Brooklyn becauss low and" ugly people who engulfed the ball park were so offensive that polite people simply stayed away. It was not safe to park cars there. It was risky to take a lady there at night. The same was true at the Polo Grounds. Robinson's own people and Willie's personal public in Harlem would not spend money to see them play.

Instead they spent money in bars and got the games by radio or TV.
