8,000 See Jackie Robinson’s
All-Stars Play in Atlanta
By Chuck Smith
Tribune Staff Sports Writer
Ponec Dp Leon Park, Atlan-
ta, Oct. 16—Jackie Robinson
anti his All-Stars trounced the
New Orleans Creole All Star-*
15-4, here this afternoon in a
game billed as Atlanta’s “Dream
Game o’ the year.”
Some 8.500 fans watched the
game played under dark clouds
that threatened to erupt any
element as they had done dur¬
ing the early part of the morn¬
ing. However, Jackie was in
town- so out to the ball game
the fans came.
They came for a show—and
this is just what they got.
Larry Doby. playing short for
the Robinson All-Stars showed
the vaunted power that
him tiie terror of the
can League by belting two hom¬
ers. both well over 400 feet.
Roy Campanula, the main¬
stay of the Dodgers, did like¬
wise a* he hit for the circuit.
Jackie, held to two singles, nev¬
ertheless was a terror- on the
base paths as he stole second
on a pilchout following a walk
that put him on first. George
Crowe, property of the Boston
Braves, wna at the initial sack
and showed tremendous power)
at the plate as he belted a i
single, double and a triple. | i
Donald Newcombe, the Dod-,
ger’s ace hurler, pitched nine 1
complete innings and at no
time was he in serious trouble.
He took tilings rather easy and
evidently didn’t try for many
strikeouts. He struck out lour.
Roy Purtiow, who went into
orgnuiJX’d baseball along with
Robinson was a relief hurler for
the Creole outfit but didn’t last
too long.
Doby played flawless ball at
shortstop, although he’s one
of the game’s coming center-
fielders.

SUMTEIt, S. C., Oct. 15—
(Georgia State Press Service) —
Georgia Slate College’s forward
wall “came into its own” here this
afternoon as the Tigers trounced
Morris College 25-0.

BROOKLYN <ANP) World
Ser.es may come and World
Series may go, but it may be a
long time before baseball fan¬
dom sees catching perform¬
ance equal to that exhibit d by
Negro Catcher Roy Campanelia
of the 'Dodgers.
Base runners were afraid to
relax, not to m otion stealing
against the Brooks, when the
stocky backstop was back of
the plate, wh ch was all of the
time. The figures on his fielding
do not reveal the true dim.n-
s on of his greatness in the se¬
ries, although his average wa c
a perfect .1000.
T,rv five games,h; was credited
with 32 putonts, two assists and
no errors. But that’s not the
omplete story, thanks to
first starraa on a 85-yard TO gal-
lop as the invading eleven won its
initial game of the season. Before
the biased Morris fans had digest¬
ed the first tally, State was on
the move again with the forward
wall making holes in the line of
opposition big enough to drive
a Mack truck thru. Turner
maxed the effort with a plunge
through the middle from the four.
Neal ran the extra point to put
Ihe Orange and Blue outfit ahead
13-0.
With U. McDowell, and Joe Tur¬
ner on the ends; T. Vann and C.
P. Harris at the tackle posts, Wil¬
lie Thompkins at center, Ted
Holmes and Harry Mason at the
guards, the Tigers began to move
again, this time in the second
period. Slocum got his second TD
from the six around right end.
State led 19-0 at half-time.
The teams battled to a stand¬
still during the third period. How¬
ever, the vicious tackling of the
State line stood out.
Midway the last stanza Neal hit
Hunky Wright with a 35 yard pass
with the elusive back sprinting
across the goal to increase the
margin to 25-0.
The stella play of the line is
dearly evident in the statistics.
Morris made five fumbles with
State recovering three of them.
G.S.C. got eight first downs, Mor¬
ris six. The Tigers tossed the
pigskin eight times, three going
for completions, and five failing
to hit their mark. Morris took to
the air nine times, but only com¬
pleted two. State intercepted six
of the attempts. Morris intercept-
always as safe, in its sealed container, as if
there were no germ of disease in the world.

HERNDON STADIUM, AT¬
LANTA, Oct. 15—Clark College’s
Cardinal and Black Panthers spot¬
ted a big South Carolina State
College Bulldog a first-half touch¬
down. then came back in the third
period to tie the score, and in the
faltering minutes of the last
stanza, hit pay dirt again to win
a hectic 12-0 battle.
Some 4,500 fans saw the game
that pre-game dopstors had rated
a toss up. George Price, a bruis¬
ing fullback, who saw considerable
service at the quarterback slot,
sparked a S. C. drive which began
on the Bulldog’s 26-yard line, and
13 plays later, the visitors held a
six-point lead. Richard Arring¬
ton, called the signals on the drive
with Price running the ends and
hitting the middle. Clark trailed
6-0 at the half. «
The Atlanta squad might have
been “down” at the intermission,
but they were far from being out,
as they returned for the third
period. Sporting a pair of backs
named Johnny Richards and
Charles Ponder, Clark drove 85
yards to tie the score with end
Clarence Williams snagging a Pon-
der pass in the end zone to tie
the score.
The two teams fought on even
terms during the latter part of
this quarter, and into midway of
the final period.
Ben Lloyd took Price’s kick on
play Lloyd moved the ball to the
; South Carolina 36. On the next
play Lloyd moved the bal lto the
five, with Richards bursting
through the middle to score the
winning TD with two minutes re¬
maining. The try for the extra
point, failed.

ATLANTA, Oct. 16 (Aboard, the Nancy Hanks En Route To
Savannah)— Last Sunday afternoon we were in Savannah in.our f
SSffiS*. watched three of the series stars give a stella
de Leon park and
performance . , .
Jackie Robinson returned to Atlanta and took the town by
storm The National League’s M. V. P. showed the fans how
. . fielding, wanted
he earned this honor . . . They wanted classy they
hitting, i • and ____i they i _.......1—tViAo wanted base running they got rfoil all r»f of thic this
Robby got two singles, both clean hits ... he stole second when
he knew the pitcher would call for a pitch-out . . . His fielding was
sensational as he was the middle man in several double plays . . .
He delighted in fielding a bounding ball deep off second then per¬
mitting the runner to almost reach first base before throwing to
Crowe at the sack just in time to nip him.
Jackie was late in making his appearance on the field but once
he had done so the crowd yelled its approval . . . Each time he
was at bat, or fielded a ball he was given a tremendous ovation . . .
Larry Doby played short instead of roving the outer gardens
However, he played flawless ball which caused us to wonder
. . . “insurance" for Lou Boudreau
if the Cleveland Indians consider him
and Ray Boone ... He was terrific at bat getting two tremendous
home runs . both being belted some 400 feet in right and cen¬
. .
ter field respectively . . ,
Roy Campanelia, not to be outdone by Larry, hit for the circuit
,also as he belted a Roy Partlow pitch in the right field bleachers showed
He displayed plenty of class behind the plate and
. . . . basbeall
the fans why he’s considered the best defensive catcher in
and he nailed would-be thiefs at second . . .
Atlantans got their first look at Donald Newcombe as he hurled
his first complete game of the juant ... He didn’t perform as he
did the night we saw him rack up his 15th win of the season against
Boston's Braves in Ebbcts field . . . Instead, he just sort of took
things easy ... lie used his change-of-pace pitch very effectively
. ... At bat he succeeded in getting a double . . .
George Crowe is a fellow many of you haven’t heard much
about but he’s destined to be a Brave regular pretty double, soon . and . .
He sports a big bat and this is evidenced by his triple,
single . . . He’s a first baseman by trade . . .
We can see why Roy -r’artlow didn’t remain long in organized
baseball as Doby and Campy, the first two men he faced upon re¬
lieving Junior Williams, hit successive Homeruns . . . He’s a pretty
good "boy” though but frankly we don’t think he’ll return to the
big time .... -
LET’S JUST SORTA’ RAMBLE FROM HERE ON IN . . . Rich¬
ard Crowe, brother of George, was a teammate of ours when we
wore a basketball suit at Tennessee State way back . . . Geor.je is
quite a master of the hardwood himself ... At one time he was
a mainstay on the Ren’s ... If we remember correctly, there are
seven boys in the Crowe family . . . and all seven are excellent
athletes . . . They make their home in Anderson, Indiana, the home
of the Ball (fruit jar) manufacturing outfit and they played as a
company team . . . There’s one brother who played for Princeton
when he was a V-12 student at the institution and there’s another
attending school on the west coast . . .
Apparently Newk doesn’t like grits . . . "Take these grits off
this plate,” he told a waitress in an Auburn avenue eating establish¬
ment as he ate breakfast Sunday morning . . . Then, it might have
been his temperment as we watched him throughout the day . . .
One fellow came up and asked, “You’re Newcombe aren't you?”
"Yep,” he replied, and the poor guy stood with a poker face while
his hand was extended waiting for a handshake that came after
what seemed hours later . Once he reached the ball park he
. .
didn’t seem to have an ounce of energy as he slumped in the
dugout . . .
Jackie posed for a pix with a Cub scout group . . . After the
game we heard any number of fans say, “Why, 1 even touched
him” (Jackie) . . Robv seems to run the outfit with an iron-clad
. the
hand . . . We heard Campy tell an official, “See Jackie for
line-up.” . . .
“Want’a play short today?” This is what Robby asked Doby
before game time. “Yeah,” the Cleveland outfielder replied . . .
Other clubs represented in addition to the Dodger, Indians
included Black Barons, American Giants, Homestead Grays, New
York Cubans, Black Yankees, Philly Stars, Elite Giants, and Puerto
Rico All-Stars ... from . New
Swell guys we met included Allan Page, who came
Orleans to promote the game, Curtis Leake, press man for Jackie’s
outfit, Joel Smith, Lerone Bennett, Robert Johnson, all of the At¬
