The Brownies acquired him in October 1952 from the Brooklyn Dodger organization in a deal re- ported to be in the vicinity of $150,000. He is tabbed as one of the future greats. He was in 154 games for the 1953 Brownies, hitting .219. Played prep ball at Indiana, Pa. and also for Indiana State (Penn.) Teachers College.
