a rest.
The injury was sustained last

son hurt his >:ack swinging a
golf club on a Los Angeles course.
Throughout spring training he
was troubled with the injury and
at one time in Cuba had to be ex
amined by one of Havana’s lead
ing physicians.
Robinson was ordered to “take
a rest” by the Dodgers’ pilot Sun
day and Cookie Lavagetto, vet
eran infielder, took over the first
base chores as the Dodgers lost
to the Giants, 7 to 6, cutting their
lead over St. Louis to 5 ¥2 games.
IN CLEANUP ROLE
Jackie Robinson, was placed in
the cleanup spot in the Brooklyn
lineup Wednesday by Manager
Burt Shotton, and the Dodgers
proceded to wallop the Cubs, 5
to 1. The Brooklyn outfit moves
