It was the Spring of 1945 when Rickey operated the dodgers and Pittsburgh was merely a station Stop on Brooklyn s National league schedule. Because of the War the Dod Gers were training at Bear Moun Tain and in the evenings Rickey would gather his Field men around him to Bear him company. A Rookie s name would be mentioned is hic a Good family Man does he. Keep regular hours is fas a negative response the Rookie s name would be scratched from Mahatma s list. It mattered Little if the Young Man could hit throw or run. If he did i have personal qualities that Good housekeeping would rec Rickey was t interested. Rickey still maintains his be Lief that an athlete must be stable both in mind and body All of which brings us to the Story of Bell the pirate outfielder.

He took a Long look at his Cigar then wonderingly at Bell and said either you travel alone or you go Back to the minors. It s up to that s the easiest decision i be Ever had to Bell replied. Ill Roback to Holly Wood. It was the first time on record that the Mahatma was known to be speechless. It was also the first time on record that a Good Ball player and family Man had come Between Rickey and his favorite furniture the turnstiles. Yet the Mahatma was compelled to Send one of his Best bail players Back to the minors or concede defeat Rickey returned Bell to Holly Wood. It was Only a matter of a few Days before Bell was recalled once More. The pirates struggling to win one game a week needed every Bell n the House. Gus came Back and began living up to his Billing As a major leaguer. And Bernardino somehow Rickey talked him out proving grounds Una of taking his family on the Road regarded Bell with infinite fond trips whether this will be Perman Ness.
