Rickey, of course, has been the subject of a million stories.

In 1951, it was back to 30.568 Those were all with second division teams, but the Bryan club that the city would be inheriting this year is certainly no ball of fire While Buster Chatham would not disclose his vote yesterday, the guess is that he reluctantly voted for the shift, but only on the condition that the move be strictly for this year.
