THE JOURNAL, CALDWELL, OHIO
"Bill Robertson is not conced
ing that the Atlanta Crackers'
1956 outfield will be (left to
right) Dick Sinovic, Jack Daniels
and Bob Montag.
Robertson possesses the *most
impressive x*ecommendation of
any incoming Cracker. He led
the Provincial League in five
departments last year and is
confident he can make the leap
from Class to double-A.
He is one of only two men on
the Cracker roster who passed
the century mark in runs-batted
in last year. His 108 RBI topped
the Provincial League as did his
total bases (277), doubles (33).
hits (173) and batting average
(.342).
v
Robertson also hit 19 home
runs and wrapped up the league's
Most Valuable Player award.
That in detail is the recom
mendation Robertson will hand
to Manager Clyde King when
the Crackers launch spring train
ing in Jacksonville, Fla., next
week. Except for pitchers, the
Crackers have not been very
successful with Quebec grad
uates. Robertson hopes to change
the luck.
If he gets a home with the
Crackers, Robertson should
find Ponce de Leon Park's
dimensions to his liking. A 21
ycar-olrt native of Caldwell,
Ohio, Robertson is a 6-2, 205
pound left-handed hitter.
Signed by old major leaguer
Denny Galehouse, Robertson did
not reach the .300 mark his first
two seasons in professional base
ball. The Milwaukee Braves pur
chased him on the recommenda
tion of scout Gil English after
one season in the Tar Heel
League.
At Evansville in 1954 he got
off to a bad start and was shuf
fled off to Eau Claire where lie
hit .296 in 103 games. Last year,
the Braves say, he found him
self and they point to the records
for evidence.
He is a welcome addition to
King's roster but the Cracker
skipper reserves comment until
he sees the 205-pounder in
action."

literature
the championship game Saturday
evening at Ban Johnson field
house. There were no unanimous
choiccs on the eight-man first
team.
Ralph Antill, of Woodsfield,
was the only player outside
Washington county to land a
berth on the first team. He was
likewise selected to the all-tour
ney team last year along with
Ray Gessel, of Beverly.
Mel Davis, of Sarahsville, was
the only member of the two
Noble county basketball teams
entered at Marietta to receive
honorable mention. It will be
recalled they lost their initial
game to Newport by only two
points and then Newport went
on to take the sectional title.
Followers of the three teams
from this county all agreed that
the Sarahsville Red Devils made
the best showing in the Marietta
tournament.
Glen Baker, Don Buchanan
and Ronnie Hall were the three
Salem players honored. Champ
ion Newport placed its durable
duo of Dick Harris and Harold
Francis. In addition to Gessel,
Beverly, also placed Lloyd
Drake.
The honorable mention list in
cludes Mel Davis of Sarahsville,
and Chuck Isaly of River Local,
who were first-team choices last
year.

It*® fen to raise Chinchillas—
these cute little animals have
no disagreeable odor. They
are vermin free. Ideal to
raise in or near the home.
Feed bill is $2.50 to $5.00 per year.
Chinchilla fur is so light in weight that
it is the only better grade fur in the world which does
not pull the fabric when used as trim on sheer evening
gowns. Therefore, as much as 30% more use may be
found for chinchilla than similar furs in its class.
There still aren't enough good breeders to fill the
demand, so you can also sell breeding stock.
Chinchilla raising is enjoyable. It can
be started as a part-time venture, and continued into
a full-time business with a wonderful future for those
who see its possibilities today visit our herd, or
