Feature)
; ?.V
'i. C r
' 4 By JIM1 &T0RY t
The average baseball fan has
no idea what goes on in the press
box at MoCormick Field during a
baseball game. It is actually a
"double-feature" every time a
person is perched high above the
playing field back of home plate.
The first feature, naturally, is
the ball game and the second fea
ture is the fun of listening to and
knowing the personalities in the
press box.
It has been my pleasure dur
ing the season to be a "member"
of this august and select group
of experts (?) and fine people.
Although I've sat in numerous
places throughout the grand
stand and bleachers, for the ma
jority of games, I've found my
self up in the press box. The kind
invitation by the personable
aports conps of the Asheville Cit
izen and Times to join the "gang"
has added greatly to my enjoy
ment of the baseball season.
First of all, there's the "work
ing press," usually composed of
Bob Terrell, Al Geremonte and
Richard Morris. These fine and
expert sports writers stay busy
most of the time, taking time-out
occasionally for a bright saying
or a soft drink (soft drinks are
free to members of press box).
One of these three is the official
scorer, making split-second deci
sions of hits, errors, etc. Although
we don't always agree" with the
official scorer, his word is final
and as a rule, is right. It's not all
work during the game, however,
They're never too busy to make a
sociated with three nicer fellows
than Bob, Al and Richard.
Other members of the "press
box gang" include the witty and
humorous Leo Willette, news di
rector of WLOS-TV, who is an ex
pert as public address "barker."
Leo always a serious announcer
when seen on - television, is a
bright, witty person with person
ality "to burn". His' spontaneous
remarks oyer the P. A. often
bring laughter Jfrom the; , thous-s4-of
vpecUtoTWJfea;- Leo
can't be there,; Fred Brown, a
more' serious-minded TV person
ality, "pinch bits". He is also
very good over the P. A.
Also aiding greatly is the wis
dom of Dick Kaplan, a "walking
encyclopedia" on sports. Dick is
also a pretty fair "guesser" on
how many spectators are present
i at a game. (We always have a
little "pool" as to who can guess
the number of paid admissions at
the ball game). Other regular
personalities are Emmette
Goodman' who usualJy contro18
the large scoreboard lights. This
is not an easy job but requires a
knowledge of the game and the
many gadgets which control the
score board. Emmette has a
"frog-voice" which can be heard
at great distances, especially by
the umpires and pitchers. His
encourgement to Tourist players
ia usually "All right, boys, let's
bat around". He certainly lends
moral support regardless of the
score . Emmette's never de
feated until the last man is out.
Don MoCurry, one of the electric
ians who sees that the lights are
in shape, is also an important
member of the "press group". Al
so often in the box "up stairs"
are Dr. Jack ; Kaplan, Dick's
father; Mrs. Goodman and also
numerous other "celebrities', in
cluding the one and only "Yank"
Young. "Yank" Is , a - Linotype
operator by trade .but likes to
join the aports -writers ocoasion-

season and am a' 100 Tourist

in the press box this season and
hope to join this same gang of
fine fellows next season. ?
