Ken Bar tholomew won the mile race and nlaced second in the flvo-mllc event to capture the North Amer ican Speed Skating Championship, By OSCAR FRALEY United Presa Sport Writer NEW YORK (UPl If the Brook lyn Dodgers are your ball club you can stand up today and give a cheer for '"The Duke" and the little fellow they call "Pee-Wee." That would be. In order, Edwin Snider and Harold Reese. Proving no doubt that a first name such aa those, or Aloyslus or Oscar. Isn't too much of a handicap when you're running the race of the hu mans. Because the Duke waa honored by the New York Baseball Writers' annual dinner Sunday night as the player of the year and the Duke's praise was for the little feller from Kentucky named Reese. The writers' dinner Is dedicated annually and traditionally to tear ing apart the greats of the dia mond sport. The scalpels and the hacksaws were at their sharpest Sunday night but nobody worked over the Duke. So you could accept It as a trib ute of the highest order to Reese when Snider atepped up and. in stead of blowing his own horn, aaserted: BACKBONE 'Reese Is the backbone of the Brooklyn ball club. If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't be anywhere. And when we lose him, we'll lose most of what we've got." There were a hordo of baseball heroes on hand, such as Yogi Berra, former pitching star Allle Reynolds, Gil McDougald, Tommy Homes, Jackie Robinson, Wlllara Marshall, "Old Reliable" Tommy Henrlch and Whiley Ford. "The man who tears me apnrt." Ford admitted reluctantly, "is Har vey Kuenn of Detroit. Outside of Ted Williams, he's the toughest man I have to face." Also on hand were New York Governor Avercll Harrlman a n c New York Mayor Robert F. Wag ner, who characterized baseball as 'democracy at Its best." Harrl. man, who depicted himself aa an unreconstructed Doager tan pulled a faux pas, however, when he referred to commissioner r ora Frlck as "Frlsh." Phil Silvers, the comedian, made , capital of It when he told the 1,400 , assembled that "I've been a fan since 'Frlsh' was known as Frick. GRINNED "But then," Silvers grinned, j ENTERTAIN RIIUTINS VIA TAPE RECORDINGS HOLYOKE, Mass. uri Thomas A.

Joe Cronin and Hank Green- berg, the two latest entrants into baseball s Hall of Fame, chuckled as Walter Alston, the "silent man" who manages the Brooklyn Dodg ers, waxed loquueious. Back In Darrtown, Ohio. ' said Alston, "we show the World Be lies pictures every night. We've clipped them a bit, however, until you d think we won m tour straight. The Yankee fans can have the pictures of the other three games, real cheap, as lor bniaer. I'm not gonna talk about his great hitting and sterling catches. He hasn't signed yet." Alston said nothing about Reese. As bystander Allie Reynolds oh served. "All my worries are meii' tal onea now." And the odds are still great that one of these days Alston will be back in uarrtown, and Reese will be the Dodger manager.
