Our Athletes 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. • Rovetch to Speak to AJC Women Warren Rovetch, Wayne Uni- versity student who was a dele- gate to the International Student Conference at Prague, will be guest speaker at a meeting of the Women's Division, American Jew- ish Congress, at 12:30 p.m.'Wed- nesday, April 16, In the Jewish Community Center.

"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 Center Group Charts Passover Splash Party Teen-agers will hold a Passover splash party at 2 p.m. Tuesday in the Jewish Community Center.

Page gixteeit 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.
