LIVINGSTONE ROBINSON-STENGEL DIALOGUE DHOWS BASEBALL GROWING UP CHICAGO < ANP)—Jackie Robin •on is an articulate graduate of baseball's school of hardknocka, who nowadays seldom misses a chance to speak out on any topic of the game which he thinks objec tionable. In fact, Jackie la outspok en on any subject, from civil rights to botany. Casey Stengel is a treaty eld baseball warhoraa with a flair for a particular type es double Jargon that has come to be known as "Stengeleae,” and a man who often murders tbs King James version es the Eng lish language. Robinson and Stengel, therefore, represent quite a contrast as In dividuals. But in one respect they both Jive. Neither man is ever at a lost for words. Recently, the two baseball celeb rities crossed words, engaging In a sort of personal dialogue which pro vided newsmen with lovely copy, delighted some fans, irritated some critics and supplied soma grist for the mill of snoopers like me who like to probe behind the headlines. To my mind, the dialogue sug gested a signflcant development It hinted that baseball is finally grow ing up. Jacklo started the whole busi ness by suggesting that the New York Mots, whom Casey now masterminds and q>ellblnds with his special diction, follow die example of the New York Yankees and give Stengel the I *a. let'A ym&fiikut BY 808 BREWSTER Ovtdoor Editor, _ Mtrfvry Oetbecrde f# THE MAONUM LINES tVhen you "gotta go deep" nothing best* a metal line.

Now there's nothing Stengel ob jects to more than to have someone suggest that he end his long honey moon with base bell. The man is juat nuts about the game. Casey loves baseball so much that he re minds me of an ex-crlcketeer (the late “Sir Joshua Palmer of Chica go) who virtually took the count (aa the result of a heart attack) on the playing field. Palmer was such a cricket fanatic that he uaed to tell his wife: “The winter* are yours; the summers are mine( to play cricket).” It is not known whether old Case has laid down any such drastic con dition for his wife, but it ia known that he doesn't permit anything nor ayone to come between him and hia beloved baseball. The man 1* a wealthy West Coast banker, but ha doesn’t ever permit his fellow banker* to bother him with such triviality as attending board meet ings during the baseball season. Be when Jackie hepped on him. Caaoy was ready, brother. “Tall Mr. Kabinaen to attend ta hie awn busineea and I’ll attend te mine," Stengel ahet back. Then, noting that the former Brooklyn Dodger* great and Hall es Earner had himself per mitted bastneea and pelHlea to came between him and base ball, Casey added with acas "He (Rotolnaon) is chuck full of nuta." The statement wa* atrongly suggestive. Caaey, of course, was referring to the fact that Jackie is now vice president in charge of personnel for the “Chock Pull ‘O' Nuta” restaurant chain in New York.
