Many, Many More All Makes And Models SARWARK MOTOR SALES 1610 E. Von Bum Tel. AL. 8-6071 NEW YORK, (Global).—Wher ever people gather to trade, or just “chew the fat” around this town, the talk is about young Elson How ard, whom the Yankees have brought up this year. At the Smoke Shop over on Amsterdam Ave., and the Barber Shop on the corner, the consensus seems to be that the Yanks would let Howard start the season and maybe play around 50 games, and then trade him. The cab driver who brought us uptown didn't agree. He thought the Yanks would use Howard this year, that he believed they finally had found the right boy. Had lunch at the Press Club downtown the other day, and found the correspondents from the daily papers talking about the same thing. But they seemed to feel that Howard would join the team and become a regular—that is, the first season he would be second string catcher or outfielder, but would be a permanent addition to the roster. Some of them defended the Yan kees in their action on choosing a Negro player. They said they felt the first &egro Yankee should be tops—have everything. He should be exceptional in every sense—not only a good player, but a good mixer and a person of high moral character and intelligence. Up to now, they say, they haven't found such a paragon of virtue. However, in young Elson Howard, they think they now have “the man.” We sincerely hope so.
