BOOKS
`Jews In Sports'
Harold U. Ribalow and Meir Z.
Ribalow fulfilled a great need,
some 30 years ago, with their
Jews in Sports which was first
published by Bloch, then one of
the leading Jewish publishing
enterprises in this country. It is
now made available again by
Hippocrene Books.
The father-son collaboration of
the late 1940s retains its exper-
tise as a most informative volume
by the greats in sports and the
Jews who excelled and became
national heroes.
Who remembers Benny
Leonard the fighter? The
Ribalows keep the memory alive.
They ,call attention of the pre-
sent generation to the heroism on
the baseball diamonds of Hank
Greenberg and Sandy Koufax.
Al Rosen, Moe Berg and many
others in baseball, eminent box-
ers like Benny Leonard and Abe
Attell, the noted in football and
basketball, and the famous in all
other sports — no one of promi-
nence was eliminated from this
collective effort.
The Michiganders Benny
Friedman and Harry Newman,
footballers like Marshall
Goldberg and Sid Luckman, are
among those remembered.
Especially impressive in the
Ribalow volume are the com-
ments, the essays dealing with
Jews in sports and the historical
background of respect and love for
athletes and athletics.
As the introduction to this im-
portant volume states: "While

its approach and does not name
every American Jewish athlete in
history, it does attempt to convey
the excitement and thrills in the
lives of men who were outstand-
ing in American sports. There are
also historical surveys of the
major sports which are not fo-
cused on individuals but on
sociological developments and
trends in American Jewish his-
tory."
