You'll Like The Way
GREENE'S Do
Your Shirts
"x:4+-.x.
You'll like the way shirts are done at Greene's. They're sparkling
white, neatly pressed, and beautifully packaged.%
Greene's use carefully-controlled formulas for soil removal, give your
shirts a gentle bleaching, and then add a special brightener for a really
white shirt.
Starching is done to your preference-or more important, it's ornitted
if you like a soft shirt.
Each shirt is individually packaged in cellophane, and a non-crush
collar support keeps your shirt in perfect shape.

DETROIT-Baltimore's Orioles,
who have been fermenting witch-
craft since the all-star game, re-
duced their magic number to 33
Yesterday with a 5-1 win over
Detroit.
Detroit's magic number (com-
bination of Tiger wins and Oridle
losses needed to clinch the pen-
nant) remained at 21.
Center fielder Paul Blair timed
two of John Hiller's slow curves
for a triple and a homerun 'for 4
runs batted in. The skinny little
outfielder teed off on Hiller in the
second with a -high fly which
Mickey Stanley couldn't hang onto
at the 440 foot sign to drive in
Boog Powell. Powell had walked on
four pitches.
Hiller, who had control trouble
in alternate innings passed Powell
again in the' fourth afterFrank
Robinson had doubled up the left
field alley. Blair waited patiently
for a high breaking curve and
puAiped it in the upper deck.
The three run shot finished
Hiller, who was succeeded by Pat
Dobson, Daryl Patterson andDon
McMahon.
The Detroit trio of relievers
dueled on even terms with Dave
McNally for the rest of the game.
McNally gave tie Tigers one run
in the sixth and Patterson gave it
back to the Orioles in the seventh.
McNally became the winningest
pitcher on the Baltimore staff,
posting his eighteenth win against
eight losses. He is 10-0 since the
All-Star break, when he told his
manager, Earl Weaver, that he
felt he'd never lose another game
all year.
The Oriole ace prevailed against
the Tigers' mild insurrection in
the sixth. Al Kaline singled in
Dick McAuliffe who had tripled
for the Tigers only run. McAuliffe
struck out his other three times
up against McNally.
Kaline, still hobbled by a lame
leg, 'had 'two of Detroit's six hits.
One was a line shot into the left
field corner which Frank Robinson
held to a single. Detroit loaded,
the bases after his sixth inning hit
on walks to Willie Horton and
Jim Price, but shortstop Dave
Johnson backhanded Dick Tra-

cewski's grounder up the middle
to force Price at second.
Detroit's patented last inning
heroics consisted only of two sin-
gles, a doubleplay, and a long fly
of rising expectations and falling
altitude which Mervin Retten-
mund squelched and ended the.
game.
Hitter-pitcher Earl Wiison, who
had two homeruns and seven rbi's
in his last three, games, pinch hit
in the fourth;jbut unceremoniously
struck out.

(There are more black athletes in America now then
there have ever been. Fifty per cent of the players in the
National Basketball Association are black. Twenty-five
per cent of the players in the National Football League
are black. Twenty-five per cent of the players in major
league baseball are black. Because of these facts and
because of the further fact that s p o r t s and sporting
events are a major source of interaction in our society,
many whites and blacks seem to feel they understand
each other better now. But, somehow, the two worlds sep-
arated by color don't really seem any closer together as a
result of their mutual experience on the football field or
the basketball court . .
Early on a cold Saturday afternoon in a crowded
stadium bowl, 50,000 throats sent out a roar to greet 22
warriors garbed in clean shiny jerseys and sharp point-
ed cleats. The warriors clash in fifteen-minute intervals
four separate times, shake hands and then go home.
The battle is fought by two 11-man squads - one
against the other. A quarterback calls the "signals" and
everybody plays to win "for the team."
The quarterback has blue eyes.
* * *
The lean cat under an.11;00 p.m. streetlight wears
bright green slacks and slick pointed shoes. He wears
his curly hair long and his shades black.
He's in his part of town, where it moves baby. Where
there's music, baby, and there's people. Where' every-
body's gonna have a good time.
There's plenty of grass going around, and tablets
and liquids. There's plenty of sound in the doorways and
in the windows, and the sound has plenty of soul. There's
plenty of talk, too - people talkin' about Daddy Rose,
that big tackle. Daddy pliyed himself one game out
there today, they're sayin'. He's big, man, he's so bad.
Daddy Rose comes from this part of town. He's al-
ways up on dexies.
* * *
On Sunday morning, the quarterback takes his time
in rolling out of bed. The sun is white and warm on his
blanket and his body aches from the game.
He picks up the morning paper to read the scores
and curses a picture of a big ugly tackle making a key
The sun is still white and warm, so he rolls back ov-
er to sleep. There's no reason to get up today. Sunday is
a day of worship and'of rest.
To hell with worship; Sunday is a day of rest.
* * *
The shakes are bad in the morning. And the cat is
getting fed up with the stink. It's getting to be time to
break out of this stink ... to get out of there and make
those green dollars like Daddy Rose. To get rid of this
scene.
Today's Sunday. That wouldn't be a bad day, but
tomorrow's Monday. We'll just wait until Monday.
Maybe then the shakes will be gone. And maybe
then there'll be some action. There's always people on a
Monday, baby, there's always plenty of people. And ev-
erybody's gonna have a good time.
*. ' *
Monday afternoon scrimmages are always the worst.
All those aches and pains from the game have to be
worked out. It sure is nice to be a quarterback, though;
the coaches take good care of you. Wouldn't want to be
those two fast: halfbacks, trying 'to beat each' other at
time trials for the one starting spot still open.
Wouldn't want to be one of those five negroes stack-
ed at cornerback. They're sweating hard at every prac-
tice so two of them can play on Saturday.
Oh well. Another game this week. A lot more cheers to
look forward to, and some more pretty girls. Saturday's
not so long off.
Monday's really dead this time, man, but Mondays
are always dead. Those shakes might be comin' back
again, but you can't really tell.
Wish there were a few more dollars here right now.
Just might have to spend 'Saturday night pushing. That
would be a shame. Saturday "nights are for fun, baby,1
Saturday nights are for FUN. I11
But that's okay. Saturday night is a long way off.
(For some white men, football is a reality. For some
black men, football is a reality. For some men, black and
white, football is not a reality. However it is for any one
man, the realities for black and white are never the
same ..)
