Leave It to Beany (Beany Malone Series, #3)
by Lenora Mattingly WeberBeany Malone liked to manage things. She thought she could even manage Sheila McBride when Sheila appeared at the big friendly house on Barberry Street. The Malones had invited their "much removed" Irish cousin, whom they had never seen, because she was an orphan and lonely in America. Beany pictured her as being wistful and starry-eyed like Peg o' My Heart, and thought she would be as eager to share their interests as they were to include her in their merry circle. Pretty Mary Fred would take Sheila under her wing at college, literary Johnny would discuss Irish poets and plays with her, and Beany, whose warm heart could play odd pranks on her practical mind, resolved that Sheila must always wear gay clothes, sparkle with wit, and never do household chores. It never occurred to them that Sheila might have her own ideas and plans, and the character (Beany called it stubbornness) to carry them out. But Beany plunged with headlong enthusiasm into a newspaper job while still in high school, pleased to have something to take her mind from her troubles with her best beau, and Sheila's stubbornness. One afternoon she brought home from the paper a stray baby, name and age unknown, as anyone else might bring in a stray kitten! The baby played havoc with the household routine, and caused so many surprising complications that sometimes Beany forgot to worry about having lost the charm bracelet that Norbett had given her. Meanwhile troubles multiplied, and Beany found that trying to manage everything and everybody was a big job.

Hit and Run
by Duane DeckerChip Fiske was a nimble, place-hitting specialist, but his short stature haunted him all the way up from the bush leagues. Now that he was big-time, he still threw his Sunday punch at the first wisecrack . . . and there were plenty of them, because this crowd liked big fellows and long-ball clouts. Then Kennie Willard came along-even more of a lone wolf than Chip. For Kennie was a Negro, the first in the League, and slated strictly for the benches. These two youngsters help each other to become really "big league"-in spirit and in action. You'll call HIT AND RUN one of the best baseball stories Duane Decker has ever written.
Fast Man on a Pivot
by Duane DeckerAt last Second Baseman Bud Walker was back again with the Blue Sox-this time, he profoundly hoped, to stay. He was not a spectacular player, just a reliable one. But he could make that double play. He had figured out to a split second just how to make the pivot and get off the throw in the absolute minimum of time. His teammates liked him, particularly the pitchers, for whom he saved game after game by his expert handling of the double play. But the fans insisted on flashy young Devlin, their choice for the second-base spot. From their hot partisanship sprang an almost unbearable situation for Bud. The manager rightly refused to take him out of the line-up while the Sox were still winning, and the incredible result was that the fans rooted violently for the defeat of their own team-and the banishment of Bud for good. In this, his finest book, Mr. Decker has built up the suspense, from the first page to the last, with a craftsmanship only matched by the skill of his expert baseball reporting.
