13y rRANK BECKMAN
ABOUT TWO YEARS from
now, Jewish baseball fans will
have another idol to crow about.
And in all probability he will
be a member of the Detroit Ti-
gers.
Baseball writers covering spring
training down south have nothing
but praise for
20-year-old My;
r o n (Joe )
Ginsberg, s o n
of Mr. and
Mrs. Joseph
Ginsberg, 14302
Terry avenue.
Writes H. G.
Salsinger of
the Detroit
News: "Detroit
Beckman
club officials,
including Spike Briggs, had a
chance to see Myron Ginsberg in
action.
"MYRON, WII0 Is being
groomed for a future Tiger
roster, was In right field for
Buffalo. Batting against Virgil
Trucks, Ginsberg belted a dou-
ble past Pat Mullin in right-
center for one of Buffalo's four
hits.
• • •
"IT WAS A nice hit but what
impressed club officials more was
a throw Ginsberg made.
"After Johnny McHale walked
in the third inning, Eddie Mayo
singled to deep right. Ginsberg
had to go back for the ball but
he came up with it and threw a
strike to Antonelli, the 'Buffalo
third baseman, nailing McHale by
several feet.
No better throw has been seen
in a Tiger game this season."
• • •
ACCORDING TO Paul Richards,
Bison manager, Ginsberg is only
two years away from being a first
string big league catcher. (Myron
played the outfield against Detroit
in place of an injured regular.)
"Ginsberg is one of the best
young major league prospects I
ever saw," Richards said. "He is
a fine receiver, a good hitter and
has a deadly arm."
• • •
MYRON HAS been playing
baseball since ho was strong
enough to lift a bat. He quit
Cooley High School, where he
was on the baseball and basket-
ball teams, to sign a Tiger con-
tract scout Wish Egan handed
him.
• • •
.EGAN WAS TIPPED off about
Ginsberg when Myron was burn-
ing up the American Legion
league as a member of the Police
Post.
Before Ginsberg could get
started on his professional career,
war broke out and he answered
the call to the colors.
As luck would have it, Myron
became a buddy of Joe Garagiola,
the St. Louis Cardinals' brilliant
catcher, and their common inter-
est in baseball cemented their
friendship.
• • •
. JOE LEFT MYRON to play for
the Manila All-Stars, and when he
was injured, he told the Manila
manager about Ginsberg and the
latter was called urr to take Gara-
giola's place.
Ginsberg wasn't an iota below
sensational for the All-Stars. He
batted .417 and was a whiz as a
backstop. To top it off, just.
about all the other players were
major leaguers.
The All-Stars lost 15 games
while Ginsberg played with them
—and, oh, yes—they won 250!

MYRON RECEIVED HIS dis-
charge in October, 1016, and the
next spring he was training with
Jamestown, N. Y, in the Class
D Pony League.

"HOW CAN 441 /6781E ZION MAKE MEAT
TASTE BETTER?"
ivy
, IT'S EASY, .MA'AM," chortled the
butcher. "These new germ-killing lamps
in our refrigerator stop bacteria cold—thanks to
invisible ultraviolet rays . . . and that means less
waste and more taste for your money!'!
For years, you see, butchers have had a difficult
problem in keeping meat both pure and fresh.
Refrigeration, of course, is partially the answer.
Refrigeration will slow up the growth of mold
and bacteria to almost nothing—will keep meat
practically 100% pure. But refrigeration alone
cannot always keep meat from drying out And
when meat does dry out, it loses its natural flavor,
juiciness and color.
Now, however, the germ-killing lamp, properly
installed, make; it possible to increase the temper-
ature and humidity in butcher shop refrigerators.
That's because its invisible ultraviolet rays de-
stroy airborne bacteria before the meat is con-
taminated.
GINSBERG had a great year
with Jamestown, batting over .300,
and now he has a good chance of
sticking with Buffalo.
With Hank Greenberg in the
twilight of his playing career,
Ginsberg may be just the fellow
to take Hank's place on the pop-
ularity list when the big fellow
steps down.
One thing is certain, Jewish fans
will be pulling for Myron Gins-
berg . . . of Detroit.
The result? Sanitary, sweet-smelling meat storage,
for one thing. Less chance of meat spoilage in
your own refrigerator, too, because your pur-
chases are healthfully pure and—at the same time
—juicier, tastier, more flavorful ... not shrunken,
discolored or dehydrated.
The germ-killing lamp is not brand-new. For
some yens it has been used—in many ways and

with varying results—to fight airborne bacteria.
During these years, scientists and engineers made
a thorough study of the lamp to determine exactly
how best it could be used. As a result of this re-
search, it is now possible for every meat market
in southeastern Michigan to get the maximum
benefit from these lamps—easily. A butcher need
not know how to compute the required number of
lamps—need not be an expert on bacteria counts
or ultraviolet radiation. For Edison specialists
can study his problem and give him specific
recommendations.
There's no charge for this accurate, impartial
advice. It's another example of how Edison
service can help Edison customers get the most
from all the electricity they buy.
