...success spoiling Vida Blue? Not according to his teammates. Though it would be easy enough to resent him (when Finley gave Blue the Cadillac, one pitcher cracked: "If I win four games do you think Charley will give me a Honda?"), Oakland First Baseman Mike Epstein reflects the sentiments of all: "He's got it. He's a nice, likable kid. Nonassuming. It's hard for a kid getting the press like he's getting, but he comes and does his job." Mrs. Sallie Blue agrees. "He's a wonderful boy. He never changes.

This is why I resent the President giving the people the attitude that the U.S. is still there because of the P.O.W.s. It sort of puts us in the middle...

Blacks in the Northern church recently barred consideration of reunion until at least 1973 because of what they see as lingering bigotry in some Southern congregations.
