Roy Campanella Badly Injured In Auto Crash ~ GLEN COVE, N.Y. (UP)-Los Angeles Dodgers star catcher Roy Campanella suffered a broken neck in an automobile accident early today. He is “paralyzed from the chest down,” his wife told newsmen. An operation to relieve pressure on his spinal cord and determine the extent of injury was begun at 7:15 am. c.s.t. Doctors at Glen Cove Community Hospital said it would not be completed for several hours. ♦ They said the roly-poly baseball star was in critical condition. The possibility of his recovering to return to baseball cannot be known until the operation is completed, the hospital said. A doctor, who declined to be identified, said, however, that “his playing days may be over.'' Mrs. Campanella, mother of six children under 18. told newsmen she saw her husband shortly after he was admitted to the hospital and “he just, moaned. He’s paralyzed from the chest down.” She went home and returned to the hospital at 9:45 a. m. with a family friend, William Urquart, a Hempstead, real estate dealer. But she left 15 minutes later without seeing Campanella, who was in the operating room. Hospital administrator Harry Gifford said X-rays before surgery showed "broken vertebrae, but we don't know whether it is one or more." Worried Dodger officials gathered at the hospital and Dodger President Walter O’Malley kept in touch by telephone from New York. ; __ _ It was not immediately known where Campanella had been before the accident.

I The car skidded on the slippery : street and then hit a light pole at ] an intersection. Campanella was ] pinned under the car until he was j removed, by attendants from a po- j lice ambulance. The car was a total wreck. ( Campanella lives in Glen Cove. , The accident was the latest and worst of the series of injuries that have dogged Campanella voted the National League's most Valuable 1 player in 1951, 1953 and 1955. Hand injuries have hampered 5 his play in recent seasons. He ( played through the 1956 campaign < with his right hand throbbing with J pain. He had bone chips removed I from it in an operation in Novem- I ber. 1956 J He still was not in top condition < last year when he played in 103 games and hit .242. That was a . bit better than the poor .219 aver- { age he posted in 1951 and the .318 e figure he had in 1955. Campanella’s 10 - year career with the Dodgers has been marked 1 by many other injuries. His crip- I pled left hand probably cost the * Dodgers the 1954 pennant. He suf- ’ sered a dislocated thumb on his right* hand in 1951 when he first won the most valuable player 1 award. He twice had his right in . a Cast during the 1952 season. Even s in 1953, another great year, he didn’t quite escape- injury. He hit 41 homers during the . regular Campaign—an all-time j record for a catcher—but was hit , on the left hand by pitcher Allie Reynolds of the Yankees in the t opening game of the 1953 World Series. Many baseball observers * believe most of Campanella’s ] hand miseries of recent years stemmed from that blow. Despite all his injuries, he never 1 gave retirement a thought He is « 36. i “I feel I can go on forever," ] be said recently. “Those people , who think I’m. reaching the end t of the toad are badly mistaken. j And I’ll prove it if I can avoid ■ injuries.” r Jimmy Archer Wins On Split Decision •.
