He aims to make Charles' title defense in the United States and awaits a challenge to the winner of Bruce Woodcock and Lee Savold. Charles returned home to Cincinnati for golf and a welcome parade, with no fixed plans yet.

Bears Rebuff Newark Bears in IL Standings
Parke Carroll, Newark Bears general manager, denounces the Star-Ledger's claim the team should be dropped from International League standings. He cites 17 years with the Yankees, 16 first-division finishes, seven league titles, Governors’ cups and four little World series as proof of their stature. He dismisses fair weather criticism while noting the Star-Ledger calls them 184% games out of first and predicts a near 100-loss tally, asserting the club remains in Triple A and not interested in fringe support.
