  • My Father and Stan the Man
    My Father and Stan the Man Lincoln Mitchell, Harriman Institute, Columbia University Posted: January 22, 2013 5:19 PM A few hours after the Cardinals won the 2011 World Series, I got an email from my father saying "Tonight, this old Cardinals fan is very happy." My father is far from a big sports fan and grew up in New Jersey, making it unclear why he was a Cardinals fan. It was possible that he was simply rooting against the Rangers because of the presence of George W. Bush in the owner's box periodically during the World Series, but it was unlikely that my father was even paying attention that closely. Over the years, I have met other men my father's age who were also lifelong Cardinals fans despite growing up in the east, where they were a lot closer to Boston, New York, Philadelphia or Washington. The real reason these men, including my father, became Cardinals fans is simply because of Stan Musial. Musial, who died over the weekend at the age of 92, had not uncoiled his famous swing in a meaningful baseball game in just short of half a century. During that time a legend grew around Stan Musial. Of all the great World War II era stars, Musial was the decent one who rarely sought attention but lived his life honorably, was polite, pleasant and respectful and never had any contact with even the whiff of scandal. Musial's personal story reinforced this. He was a Polish-American who grew up in a coal mining town, was a natural athlete who worked hard to make it in baseball, spent his entire career with one team and was married to the same woman for more than 70 years.

  • Jackie Collum: a Living Baseball Legend
    Jackie Collum: A Living Baseball Legend By William L. Sherman Jackie Collum would be a good name for a baseball trivia contest. Especially in Iowa. Collum started playing second base for Newburg High School as a 10-year old sixth grader in 1938. Newburg was a small high school. Enrollment was usually less than 50 up until the school reorganized with Grinnell in 1958. The older players didn’t mind having Jackie play with them. He was good, and it sometimes meant the difference between playing or forfeiting. Jackie’s two older brothers were the Newburg pitchers. When they graduated Jackie took their place and quickly became a dominant southpaw pitcher. But he was Newburg’s only thrower. So on one occasion in 1944 when Newburg had to play two games back to back, Jackie pitched the first game left-handed and then pitched right-handed to win the second game. It was the first and only time an Iowa high school baseball pitcher accomplished that feat. Collum was also good a left-handed hitter. His pitching and hitting helped Newburg get within one game of making a state tournament appearance in 1944. Following high school Collum enlisted in the Air Force. Baseball was a popular diversion for the troops and Collum was able to resume his baseball career as a pitcher for the Fifth Air Force baseball team. His team was good. They reached the finals of the Pacific Theatre Championship series. They had to win two games to win the championship. Jackie pitched the first game and defeated a team that included several major leaguers—Pee Wee Reese, Stan Musial and Joe Garagiola.
