Early Christmas for Selters and baseball passes
Julius Selters, former AL slugger who played for four clubs in nine years and later ran a Pittsburg tavern, was blinded in a freak accident while playing with the White Sox in 1943. Commissioner Chandler will award a silver lifetime AL pass and AL card, with the NL to mail Meese a pass. Selters said the gesture will help his son Joe learn about the game. Casey Stengel has touted sleeper Ed Whitey Ford for 1950, with Ford set for a Yankees tryout after stints in Binghamton and Albany area circuits.
