You know it holds enjoyment you can depend upon . that each and every time you'll find tbe same touch of genius. the same quality of greatness.

Copyright 1947, Jos. Schlitz Brewing Co., Milwaukee. Wis. The Beer that made Milwaukee Famous Iilea With A Heart When the Alabama legislature abol- ished the use of tax tokens last October the American Legion rolled up its sleeves. Arthur Greenwood, a prominent Bir- mingham restaurant owner and faithful Legionnaire, fostered the idea of collect- ing the defunct metal and plastic discs and putting them to good use. He and State Commander Jimmie Lane were in agreement that the money for redemp- tion should be turned over to the Crippled Children's Clinic in Birming- ham. Over one hundred Posts sprang into action when an appeal was issued throughout the state. In the week fol- lowing, a continual stream of tokens poured into boxes in theater lobbys, into barrels on street corners. School chil- dren were asked to bring tokens from home. Newsboys conveniently made a house-to-house canvass. Boy and Girl Scouts, armed with explanatory letters of the drive, besieged merchants, who were most cooperative in contributing to the cause.

    Sam Nahem: the Right-Handed Lefty Who Integrated Military Baseball in World War II

    Sam Nahem: The Right-Handed Lefty Who Integrated Military Baseball in World War II Peter Dreier NINE: A Journal of Baseball History and Culture, Volume 26, Numbers 1-2, Fall-Spring 2017-2018, pp. 184-215 (Article) Published by University of Nebraska Press DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/nin.2017.0025 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/758617 [ Access provided at 12 Aug 2020 17:57 GMT from Occidental College ] Sam Nahem The Right- Handed Lefty Who Integrated Military Baseball in World War II Peter Dreier Sam Nahem was a so- so pitcher who logged a 10- 8 win- loss record and a 4.69 earned run average (ERA) in four partial seasons with the Dodgers, Cardinals and Phillies between 1938 and 1948. Despite this unremarkable record, Nahem was a remarkable Major Leaguer in many ways. He was the only Syrian and one of the few Jews in the Majors during that period. Nahem not only had a college education— a rarity among big league players at the time— but during off- seasons he also earned a law degree, which he viewed as his fallback job in case his baseball career faltered. He was also an intellectual who loved classical music and American, Russian, and French literature. He was also one of the few— and possibly the only— big league pitcher who threw exclusively overhand to left- handed batters and exclusively side- arm to right- handed hitters. In his Major League Baseball (MLB) career, he was inconsistent— occasionally brilliant, but mostly unexceptional— on the mound.
