BURR Boris Woyt, affectionately known as Butch to his Dodger teammates, moved up through the thronging Dodger outfielders yesterday at College Park, Charleston, ln Brooklyn's 9 to 2 win over the local Rebels of the Sally League. Woyt from Fort Worth gathered two single and a home run ln four times at bat, pick- ing up the ground lost to Tom Tatum at Miami the day before. There's something about the lowered the boon on Fatta. formerly of Bensonhurst. now a Newburgh! hW7 I i resident, in 1:09 seconds of the sec-iond round of their scheduled eight- tured the first clinic at which time over 300 perions attended.

An open forum will be welcomed. 1 Ed McCarrick, executive secretary of the Brooklyn Amateur Baseball Foundation, was one of the guest' speakers at the first meeting of the American Legion Junior Baseball League held at the Legion's county clubhouse.

McCarrick told the large audience about last year's Brooklyn Against the World contests and congrat the way he won but he was glad! Florida sunshine that peps up young Boris amazingly. The heat of the tropics wore him out, as It did so many other Dodgers, but when he went to Miami from Havana with the Dodger second team he slugged the Braves' and Browns' pitching around like he owned 'em. "I feel good ln Florida," said Butch, squaring his shoulders and reaching for a bat. "Perhaps I was homesick for the old S. A.

Manager Leo Durocher still has 10 outfielders It was 11 before Joe Tepsic decided to take the veil and has had to use 'em on short shifts. On the last day of the long training junket, however, Woyt elbowed through the Durocher Says: Brooklyn College Routs Fordham Behind Sirofa he was the winner. The bout meant much to him and he proved to himself that he can really punch with both hands. He convinced himself too that he can take punishment and still fight on without slackening his pace.

Their first pennant-race preview performance in the old Flatbush baseball orchard has overtones positively unique in the history of the game. There is a threadbare axiom to the effect that everything happens in Brooklyn.

Well, this hasn't. Not until now. The presence of Jackie Robinson on the ball field makes the story and it isn't entirely that Robinson is a Negro, the first man of his race to seriously threaten to win himself a Job in organized baseball. Look at it this way. These pre-season performances have been going on a long while.

They were designed primarily to collect a few shekels that would help defray the cost of Spring training. Also to give local fans a chance to size up the rookies of more or less promise who came out of the South. And, thirdly, to whet the appetites of the fans for the opening of the regular season a few days off. TEST? But never has there been such a stage setting this one. There isn't a question of doubt that the attention of everybody at Ebbets Field will be concentrated not upon Dodger heroes old or prospective but upon a player in uniform for Jackie Roosevelt Robinson will be either Montreal first baseman or the Montreal second baseman depending on where Clay Hopper, the manager of the Royals, sees fit to use him.

And as an added theatrical fillip. Branch (Old Belasco) Rickey has subtly created a strong impression that whatever Robinson accomplishes in this preview performance will determine whether the Negro will be taken off the Montreal roster and set down in the middle of the Dodger clubhouse or whether Jackie will accompany the Royals when they pull up stakes tomorrow night. That puts Mr. Robinson on a well-decorated spot just it would put any ball player on a spot. Two ball games certainly constitute an extremely brief interlude in which to pass final judgment as to whether or not any athlete is good enough to help a ball club.

A ROUGH SPRING Being on a spot, however, certainly Is no novelty for the big, fast-moving Negro. It is doubtful whether any ball player at any time ever went through a set of circumstances calculated to construct a mental ordeal as Jackie did this Spring. Every one knew he was a candidate for the Dodgers but he wore the uniform of the Montreal club. Actually, he belonged to neither ball club and lived apart from any of the others. In Havana, the swank Nacional Hotel considered his atltrittance unthinkable.

Nor could he live with the I Montreal players at the Military Academy barracks which rwere their headquarters. In Panama, both Brooklyn and Montreal players lived In the Canal Zone and the Canal Zone is strictly set up on Jim Crow lines. So Robinson lived in Panama City, Republic of Panama, where the color line is practically nonexistent. A SKETCHY TRIAL And when his alleged test as a ball player begirt, he played a position that was utterly strange to him. He was Montreal's second baseman last season when he led the International League in batting and rated the best second sacker in the minor leagues.

But In the South, he was slapped down on first base to sink or swim. The odd part of all this is that the Dodger Spring train-; lng program deliberately skirted the South because of Jackie Robinson; Actually, he had a far better break in Florida a year ago when his position was relatively clear. He was a candidate for Montreal and a member of the Montreal squad and if Southern prejudice forced him into different living circumstances than his teammates, he at least was quartered with American colored folk. My own thought is that Rickey will bring Robinson up to the Dodgers and what happens in the Flatbush series with the Royals will have little to do with the decision. I can be wrong on this because the Montague St.

Mahatma has been a bit more than his usual baffling self in this case. Sometimes, he has talked too much and sometimes he has said too little but the issue has always been beclouded. NO EXPLANATION Rickey must know that, if Robinson remains in Montreal, he will be accused of not giving Jackie a fair test. And that if he does not act now he will never be able to -explain the reasons why he has kept Jackie in a Montreal uniform this long instead of having him play with the Dodgers from the start of the season. And, it seems to ue, that any reasons for that which hold up will be tantamount to an admission that his entire program of breaking down the color line In baseball has failed.

So, in a sense, Rickey is on the spot Robinson. And much more so in the eyes of certain well-defined sections of the populace. Hamilton, St. John's, Lane. Brook- this year but even Marvin Eackley is winning sudden favor.

The the Bronxlt.es came back to knot 0pppnent has not been picked yet. jCanadiens Choice Well, today we tear the wrapper off the 1917 Dodgers so you all can see 'em.

What will you see? Well, here's my Idea: 1. You'll see an even faster club than the one which ran most in the National League. We are faster in left field where 1 think Hermanski will make it, faster at third base because of Arky Vaughan, and faster in reserve power where Rack-ley, Tatum and Woyt will have chances to stay. 2. Our catching is the most strengthened department on the team.

Edwards, Rragan and Howell are a strong trio and Gil Hodges is one of the outstanding prospects I've ever seen come over the horizon in the last five years. He reminds me of Walker Cooper. 3. A more flexible pitching staff. At the start of last year we had only I.ombardl in the southpaw department.

Hatten was not reliable. Today Hatten and Lombard! are ready and either Minner or Van Cuyk seem like good bets for No. 3. Don't count Van Cuyk out. yet.

The next five clays will be critical ones for this ball club. There will be five games on the field and just as many meetings in Branch Rickey's office, probably, to decide on the makeup of the club. I am in a spot which makes me appreciate how an umpire feels when a close play comes up. If I make a mistake now, it may influence not just one game, but 154 during the whole season. If 1 keep the wrong man, it will be too bad.

I am going to be as careful as I can, and take all the time 1 can before making these (alls, for some of them are hairline decisions on which man to keep and which to send to the minors. But when the decision is made, it will be my decision, make no mistake. Branch Rickey has always given me the first word and the last one when it comes to picking my men, either on the srjuad or in trades. There is just one consideration which wilt govern my eveiy move this Spring: Our aim is to win the 1947 pennant. That is why we added Eddie Chandler to the staff just at the time we should have been cutting down instead of adding.

I think Chandler can help us. Just when everybody is looking for the axe to fall, perhaps there will be another addition or two. Why? If I see somebody on the Montreal club who can strengthen us in the field or al bat, I will ask for him. We want to win. With that in mind, I'm trying to get the best 30 men I can.
