"We'll take it out on the Japs." quipped Capt. Pee Wee Reese just before the Dodgers boarded their airliner at Idlewild Airport Thursday — and the other players quickly joined in the refrain. The players had expressed annoyance over the trip starting so soon after the World Series but Thursday they wete looking forward to it. The ill-starred Newcombe, who left the clubhouse shortly after he was knocked out in the fourth inning of the decisive 9-0 seventh game, rejoined the team at the airport after first paying a visit to Flatbush magistrate's court to answer charges of striking a fan after last Friday’s second game. Newcombe’s'lawyer received a postponement of the case until Nov. 19. The 240-pound pitcher, o nc e again a World Series “goat,” then drove to the airport and strode onto the field where he greeted his teammates with the remark, “Look out, boys, the Tiger is here!” „ At Yankee Stadium, the 65-year-old Stengel, who plans to leave for his Glendale, Calif., home in the next few days, said “every last one” of his players “gave me a big thrill by the way they came back in thd Series.” —— “And, I got faith,” Stengel went on, “that they are gonna come back even stronger than, ever next year. We got a lot of youngsters coming to our instduciional school next February and I’ll be mighty anxious to look at ’em.” Davis Cup Members Are Named By U.S. NEW YORK (UP)—Mike Green of Miami Beach, Fla., and Myron (Mike) Franks of Santa Monica, Calif., two promising 19-year-old tennis players, today were named to the United States Davis Cup team that will Journey to Australia for matches there in December.

Doctors had stated previously that Hamisfar had been born with a weakness of the stomach lining which made it more probable for hernia to develop. Hamisfar took the stand and told the same story he had related earlier. He said Bille struck him in the stomach “because I didn’t have sense enough to say sir?’ to the non-commissioned officer.
