One family lives just outside
Port Huron.
'Would you come that far?"
the mother asks hesitantly.

or three former Detroit
Tigers, last Monday
was a day to reunite. It
was a day to play golf or
tennis with major sports fig-
ures like Bob Probert of the
Detroit Red Wings. And it
was a day to honor a
legendary Jewish athlete.
"It is a day to honor a Jew-
ish hero," said Gary Dembs,
organizer of the second an-
nual Hank Greenberg
Memorial Golf and Tennis
Invitational at Tam
O'Shanter Country Club. "It
carries on the Greenberg
legacy. It's carrying on his
name from the people of his
era to those today who
should be knowledgeable of
what he stood for."
More than 140 golf and
tennis players participated
in the fund-raiser, which
grossed $45,000 for cancer
research and equipment at
Sinai Hospital.
Riding a golf cart, Mr.
Dembs met up on the 9th
fairway with a foursome

that included Denny
McLain, the former Detroit
Tiger pitcher and current
radio talk show host for -
WXYT-AM.
"You must be following
the winners," Mr. McLain—
quipped.
Barney McCosky, who
played outfield for the Tigers
during the early 1940s, was
also on the links, along with
former Tigers and Hank
Greenberg teammates Joe_

Bob Feller
respected
Greenberg for
standing up for his
Jewishness.

Ginsberg and Harry
Eisenstat.
Mr. Greenberg inspired
other ethnic players to excel
in sports and break down
ethnic barriers, Mr. Dembs
said. He was inducted into ci
the Baseball Hall of Fame in
1956 and is honored as a 17 -'
member of the Jewish Sports
Hall of Fame at the Jewish
Community Center in West
