a very subtle thing for a while.

after many players found out that
I wasn't Jewish, they really started

pouring it on me. They'd holler
Jewish names anyway_ I don't know

why they thought J would con-
sider such names as insults. I
thought I had made it abundantly
clear in conversations that I didn't
harbor any religious or racial
'prejudice, so why should such
taunts bother me?"
Freeman. now a Denver mutual
fund salesman, is somewhat philo-
sophical about his experience. He
concludes: "I'm a Unitarian now.
but I sometimes advertise in the
Intermountain Jewish News."

Newmark explains his selection
of Columbus this way :"I'm from
Brooklyn but there's so much of
New York I don't know. I wanted
to go to a New York school. And
when I visited Columbia I was
treated like an individual, not like
a baseball bum.
"I think the coach is a fine man,
He never tried to pressure me, or
toy with my sensitivities. Athletics
are great, but I'm going to college
to learn. I'm taking a chance on
what I consider right values,"
Spoken like someone who car-
ries a 95 high school average!
