Curtis: Flood, New Cardinal |
Ball Club Sensation

By ROSCOE L..McCRARY. ~

ST. LOUIS, Mo: ~ Is Curtis
Uharles Flood, the St. Louis Cardinals 20~year old centerfielder
a ~miniature Willie Mays~ as a
St. Louis sports writer comqeue
him recently?;

~Will young Floo@ continue to
play the type of ball that will
make St. Louis fans divide their
allegiance with longtime idol
Stan Musial?

Right now; the answer seems
yes.. Into San Francisco this
week, where Herman and Laura
Flood of Oakland, Calif., will see
their youngest son play ball for
the first time in their lives, Curt
continues to make the right
moves at the right time.

_Short and. strudy at 5~0~ and
weighing 165 pounds, Flood has
learned to hit behind the runner
and also helping to move more

~of. his. teammates into scoring po
sition: Since he was recalled last
May.2, (much to his. surprise)
Flood. credits much of the tutoring he has received to manager
Fred Hutchinson and Musial.

~It~s real opportunity to play
Mr. Busch~s Cardinals. They are
a fine bunch of fellows,~ he said
one day last week.

~ Asked about his current hitting streak, Flood attributed it.to
~lotsa ~luck 2nd Somebody up

there dikes me.~:

He says Lew Burdette of the
Braves is the toughest pitcher he
has. faced in the major leagues.

Flood was only one year old
when his family moved: to California. from Houston, Texas. He

~played sandlot, American Legion

and high school infielder in Oak
land. He was scouted by Bobby
Mattick of the Reds and signed

to a contract for $4,000. Cincin

B Carolina tcague. He was a.300
hitter with 29 homers with 128
RBis in Class B in 1956.| Last
~year, he hit..299 with 14 home
runs. and 82 driven in for the
Class A Sally league.

Flood, a product of high school
is anxious wc pursue his studies.
He is intensely interested in commercial art and during the off
season he plans to study at some
college in or near his home. His
father is a custodian with the
Oakland school system. He has
three brothers and two sisters,
all older than he.

Flood, who is~single (~I know a
couple of nice girs. back home~~)
realizes that he must face a stint
in the armed services. He hopes
it doesn~t interfere too much:
with his game.

~The Confederates are coming to. the Memorial Coliseum, calling themselves the Washington Redskins. It will | -

be Saturday, Aug. 18. They~ll be tossing a football~ around.

It will be the 14th Annual Times Football. Classic and the
fact that the proceeds are used for the benefit of our community. makes ita real attraction..The sponsors should can-,
cel out the Redskin game altogether and give the Rams a
new opponent for the Aug.:18 date. sy

George Marshall, Redskin owner, has openly stated that
as long as he is: the boss the club will remain lily ~white.
Washington football fans said OK and are staying away
from the games. The Dodgers and the Natidnal Football
League have made our city the sports center of the world
and Negre fans have helped make that possible.

Paul J. Schissler; director of special events for the

Times, should ~quit kidding himself. He knows the classic.~an make more, money if he would. dump the Skins and re
place them with ahy NFL team with Negro players. We'll

~bet the appeal would be greater. Just to. prove to myself |

wasn~t suffering from moonphobia, | queried ten rabid football regulars. Not one. could. remember what team Eddie
LeBargn,:Jim Bodoley of. Don, Bosseler played for. In fact,
the Redskins are so unpopular in this neck of the woods one
fan thought LeBaron. was still pitching for the College of
the Pacific.,

This is not a very nice thank you to hand the Times
Charities for.that mighty nice South Area Boys Club, but I
can~t see Dad and.Mom supporting a club that won't hire
their kids after being taught the game at a very early age
atthe Boys~ Club,

It is downright silly for the owners of the Redskins to
beso. narrow minded in ~this age and it is even sillier for
the Times to péddle ~it. Since the major league baseball
teams~. are $d. interdsti ig, it may prove even a fhe disastrous
to keep the Skins playing ball. It~s a~ the fans~ won't
mind. preg ~because the interest ~isn~t t fe! ea it doesn~t
prove one bles ed. thing. Even the most loyal Ram fans are
planning to sit the~ Aug. 18 tilt out and if the Rams don~t
put up 2 howl soon, the fans. are gonna think they are aiding and, abetting. Let me hear from you on this score.., - CITY OF HOPE

Geo, D.~ Stevens

Candidate~~~~
for the Democratic nomination
for Congress from Michigan~s
Sixth District, today blasted the
Eisenhower Administration for
~tetal lack of leadership. in the
five vital areas of domestic policy.~ Speaking before the Civitan
Club df Eansing,.the Flint ~attorney declared that, *fhe recent
severe blows to American prestige abroad, and our. rapidly. deteriorating foreign policy, have

obscured the fact that our do-| |

mestie policies ~*have ~ stagnated.
The wonderful social welfare
programs of the Roosevelt-Truman Administrations have been
allowed. to wither on the vine,
despite glowing campaign prom:
ises in both:1952~ and 1956, on
the part of Eisenhower and
Nixon.

~Stevens said that the five major issues on the domestic scene
in the current campaign are the
growing unemployment, the _ increasing need for social security
and other programs designed to
provide decent retirement for
our senior citizens, our gravely
inadequate educational facilities,
the need for an intelligent long.
range program for the peaceful
use of atomic energy, and finally,
a realistic program to provide
decent, unemployment compensation for the millions of unfortunate laborers who are caught
in an economic depression over
which they have no control.
