, Who had successively
of a • major league
written during the
last April,
Back in 1950, in the midst of a semi-
final Cup series; between Canadiens' and New York Rangers,
the Canadi.eny' goaler Bill Durran, seven times winner of the
Vezina trophy, had the courage and sporting spirit to tell coach
Dick Irvin: "Dick, I'm not doing the team any good. My rieflexes
have slowed down, I'm. through,"
And so Durnan stepped out of the picture and ended a
career, to be succeeded by little Gerry McNeil. But Ranger's
were roaring ahead, .the wizardy of McNeil, then a rookie
youngster, halted them only temporarily, and Rangers went
on to win the round, and give Detroit; Red Wings a grins battle
for hockey's most coveted prize,
On the 'Thursday night of April 2, last, Canadiens were
defeated by Chicago Black Hawks, in a Stanley Cup semi-final
game. That game gave Hawks a 3-2 edge in a best of seven
aeries, One More victory, and the Chicago team was into the
finals, Canadiens were oat. And the next game ,Was in Chicago,
before • a fanatic, victory -mad Saturday night crowd scenting
n Stanley Cup triumph for the first time in years.
On the Saturday morning, the long arm of Coincidence
stretched across the years. For this time it was little Gerry
McNeil, the successor to Durnan, who waited on coach- Dick
Irvin, and declared: "Dick, I'm not doing the team any good.
My nerves are i haky. My reflexes are shot. Put Jacques Plante
into the net: He'll win a game for us."
Irvin gave the matt& lengthy study. McNeil continued. to
urge the change. It was a desperate gamble, but Irvin decided
to take it. He benched not Only McNeil, but three other regu-
lars, tossed in lour rookies, including Plante, a hawk -faced,
sharp-eyed French Canadian youngster who had played a few
genies for Canadiens during the season. Canadiens rallied m
spirited fashion, won by 3-0, and first to greet Plante . and
throw his arms around the rookie goaler was McNeil him-
self, who had raced almost the complete circuit of the rink
to be first to congratulate his replacement,
Plante played three more games after that. Chicago was
eliminated with the dead -pan Habitant in the Canadiien nets.
Then, in the. second game of . the Cup finals against Boston
Bruins !`'!ante faltered, and Coincidence, if you like to call it
that, entered again. "You better put Gerry back in there"
Plante told coach Irvin. So McNeil was switched back, scored
two ?hut -outs in the next three games, and Canadiens marched
of with. the Cul?,.

Jackie Phillips, once a big -leaguer

the Hollywood Stars out on the
]Pacific slope.
•Versatility, within proper lim-
its, can be a baseball player's
greatest asset. Carried to excess,
:taowever, it can become a serious
obstacle as certain athletes can
testify. More often, than not the
player who can go in and do a
4lreditable job at any one of sev-
eral positions deprives himself
of a regular job. In such case his
versatility has made him too
-valuable as a 'utility' raan or as
what is called bench insurance,
During the years he was with
Brooklyn Eddie Miksis learned
this hard lesson. So did Bob Ra-
maszotti. Peanuts Lowrey can

Lolls Cardinals would not think
of "wasting" his talents in 125
or more games per season. Sa

way he would prefer, Lowrey

Thus far, this season Holly-
wood's Helping Hand has pitched,
played first base, third base and.
shortstop. Last year he also
played soiree in the outfield. so,
if needed, he could go back there
again. About the only thing Phil-
lips has not done is catch, and
he.may get around to that before
lie finally gives up baseball for
a steady job.
"I don't care where I play now,
just as long as I play," Philips
admitted. "In the majors it's dif-
ferent. Up there you like to play
one position. In the Coast League,
though, rosters are smaller. There

The practiced value of spiritual under.
',landing in daily life was the keynote
at more than 7,500 Christian Scientists
from throughout the world met recently
for the Annual Meeting of The Mother
Church, The First Church of Christ,
Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts. .
A special message from The Christian
Science Board of Directors told the
gathering that materialism not only it
being challenged, but is yielding in-
creasingly, to the impact of spiritual
enlightenment.
Bearing witness to this were incidents
of Christian ' Science healing read at the
meeting which included total recovery
from a severe case of poliomyelitis,
abdominal cancer, rheumatic fever and
rheumatic heart diagnosed es incurable,
dislocated hips thought beyond recovery,
and accident injuries pronounced fatal.
Through pr a ye r fu l living of pure
Christianity, the Directors said, "painless
Progress can be made by the individual

years. Her term of office is for one year.
are fewer players on each club,
so I'm happy to help out where
I can." e
Phillips, who has served in
both major leagues, can blame
Joe McCarthy and Bill. Meyer for
the use subsequent managers
have made of his diversified tal-
ents. Iii his second season in or-
ganized baseball Phillips went to
spring training camp with the
Yankees. The year' before, he had
led the Piedmont League in home
runs and putouts as a first. base-
man,
"J o e McCarthy decided he
wanted to make an infielder of
me so he had nee play third base,
shortstop and even second base.
The next year, with Newark, I
played first, second, third and
the outfield. I got into the 1947
World Series as a first baseman."

After what happened to hint
with the Pirates in 1951 Phillips
scarcely knew whether he was
coming or going. Be went with
the club as a first baseman but

then gotten started be found hiln-
self. teaching Ralph Kiser how
to play the position, and inci-
dentally, how to take Phillips's
job away. Logic becomes some-
what strained along here for
somewhere during the Diner in-
structional period Jack emerged
as a pitcher,
*
"I was spending so much time
with Ralph ' I didn't get much
chance to work out myself," Phil-
lips said. "To make up for it
started pitching a lot of bat-
ting practice.'.

In those days the Pirates mels
even more desperately in need
of pitchers than today. During
one three - day stretch 'Phillips
recalls the club employed 13 dif-
ferent pitchers•

"One day we le f' t c rt trine,

live innings against the Braves.
Bucky Walters was with them
as a coach and after the game
be told Inc I had shown enough
to convince him I could make
it as a pitcher. After that I spent
three straight days in the bull -
'pen." e „
For a t i m e. it appeared as
though wandering Jack Phillips
at last had found a permanent
home, but that was quickly dis-
pelled. One day not long there-
after Philips was in the bullpen
getting ready to go in against
the Giants. Before he could fin-
ish his warm - up throws t h a
Giants changed pitchers and Jack
found himself entering the gaine
as a pinch -hitter against Lefty

fully. "And I never got down lo

June 4, 1953, may be put down
as one of the eventful days in
history of mankind.
This was the day on which the
world was told that the process
had been proved by which man
can make more atomic power
than he consumes.
David Lilienthal said a few
years ago that the day this hap-
pened, it would be the biggest
news since the announcement of
the original atomic bomb.
The device is, in oversimpli-
fied terms, a controlled, nonmili-
tary atomic bomb. It is an
atomic furnace, or reactor. It
consumes a certain type of uran-
iurn. • So does a bomb, in an un-
controlled explosion. But the
reactor or furnace in Idaho riot
only is controlled, but it produc-
es more uranium than it con-
sumes.
The process is called breeding.
What it does, in effect, is to
bring mankind nearer to realiza-
tion of an unlimited source of
power than he ever has come
before. It is a new concept of
material power.
The process of breeding means
that as fast as atomic fuel is
eonsum.ed in furnaces, or reac-
tors, from which electric power
is generated, new atomic fuel
also will be created.
These breeder furnaces thus
will do two things: create power
to be used on the spot, provide
the fuel for more power, And
that fuel, in turn, will provide
power and create more fuel
The allegory of the goose that
laid the golden egg is thus conte
true.
'the point of the announce-
ment is not that a source of cheap
power suddenly has been drop-
ped into the lap of mankind, but
that a phenomenal — and that
word cannot be exaggerated --- n
