"What would I recommend for a Red Sox fan living in New York?" asked Harvey Frommer, the baseball historian, Dartmouth College professor and Yankee fan, who is currently working on an oral history about the rivalry between the two teams. "Wear a disguise."

Ace Greenberg Among B'nai B'rith Honorees; Famed Detroit Slugger Among 14 Set for Induction Thursday Into Sports Hall of Fame
When Hank Greenberg was finishing up his baseball career in 1947 with the Pittsburgh Pirates, he bumped into Jackie Robinson one day. The two collided accidentally on a close play at first base. Quickly, Greenberg apologized for the collision and, observing the taunts being thrown at Robinson that season, said: "Don't let them get to you. You're doing fine." After the game, Robinson told reporters: "Hank Greenberg has class. It stands out all over him."

It was fitting that Greenberg, who had been a target of abuse himself, was one of the first opposing players to encourage Robinson, who broke major league baseball's color barrier in 1947. As Shirley Povich later observed in one of his "This Morning" columns in The Washington Post: "Baseball was not distinguished by lofty intellectuals in Greenberg's time. He was a target of subtle and flagrant anti-Semitism, an earlier version of the bigotry that hounded Jackie Robinson with the Dodgers."

Greenberg, who died in 1986, and Povich are among the 14 inaugural inductees to the B'nai B'rith Sports Hall of Fame to be honored at a dinner Thursday night here at the Grand Hyatt Hotel.

These also include Mel Allen, Red Auerbach, Al Davis, Eddie Gottlieb, Sandy Koufax, Benny Leonard, Sid Luckman, Abe Pollin, Al Rosen, Dick Savitt, Dolph Schayes and Mark Spitz.

The hall will be located in the Klutznick Museum at the B'nai B'rith's Rhode Island Avenue NW headquarters. An inaugural exhibit entitled "Stars of David -- Jews in the World of Sports" will run for six months, then travel to other museums across the country.

Harvey Frommer, guest curator and executive producer of the "Stars of David" exhibit, said yesterday that more than 600 items will be included in the exhibit. It celebrates numerous Jewish athletes, even back to Battling Mendoza (1764-1836), first Jewish boxing champion of the world and later England's most celebrated boxing instructor. The Washington Post
