for a fight or a frolic. He’s a pugnacious pepperpot with a strident voice that can be heard all over the park end, despite his small stature, he never has cared how big they came. There was, for instance, that opening day at the Polo Grounds several years ago when Burly Van Lingle Mungo, -a 200-pounder, was serving them up. for the Dodgers. Mungo was dusting him off so Bartell laid a Bunt down the first-base. line and, when Mungo covered the ball, they .collided. Bartell came up swinging— as was and is his habit, ; “I didn’t hurt him, though,” Dick grins. “Just as I swung with my Sunday punch, Bill Terry (the former Giant manager) got in between dl and it caught Bill flush on the Ww.” Playing the infield, Bartell always has been open to retaliation for his spike and fist throwing antics. But this never deterred him. “Come and get me,” is his battle attitude. “I won't be out of breath from running when the fighting starts.” Bartell’s aging legs are spiked and scarred and won't cover the ground they once did. So, after a more milestones have been passed, they'll succeed eventually in their attempts to make a utility man, an occasional player, out of him,
