	Newark Eagles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Newark Eagles was a professional Negro League baseball team that played in the second Negro National League from 1936 to 1948.
		The Eagles were formed when Abe Manley and his wife Effa Manley, founders of the Brooklyn Eagles, purchased the Newark Dodgers franchise and merged the teams.
		Team management was left to Effa, making the Eagles the first professional team owned and operated by a woman, and under her guidance the 1946 team won the Negro League World Series, upsetting the Kansas City Monarchs in a 7-game series.

	Newark Eagles
		The Newark Eagles club was born from the union of the Brooklyn Eagles and Newark Dodgers teams, both brought under the ownership of Newark businesman, Abe Manley, in 1936.
		It might be said, though, that the Eagle's club was victimized by it's own success during the late 1940s.
		After losing Larry Doby to the Cleveland Indians and witnessing the departure of Monte Irvin to the New York Giants, Manley realized that the days of his club (and the Negro National League) were numbered.

	Vision of the Park
		THE story of the bronze eagle statues of Fort Greene Park in Brooklyn, placed in protective storage decades ago but far from forgotten, is long and tortured, laced with crime, political feuding and interborough resentment.
		City parks during the 1960's and 70s were the site of widespread thefts of bronze fixtures, from statues to handrails to memorial tablets - "anything that could be melted down for scrap metal," the city parks commissioner, Adrian Benepe, said last week.
		Plans to return the eagles in the mid-70's were abandoned because of fears for the statues' safety.

		Here, plaintiffs neither registered the "Brooklyn Dodgers" mark prior to their resumed use of the mark in 1981 nor did they produce any other evidence indicating that they had plans to resume use of the "Brooklyn Dodgers" mark when they intentionally abandoned it and Brooklyn in 1958.
		Having determined that plaintiffs abandoned the "Brooklyn Dodgers" mark, the next inquiry is to determine the effect of that abandonment, given that plaintiffs have recently resumed limited use of the trademark.
		This court holds that plaintiffs' failure to utilize the "Brooklyn Dodgers" mark for any significant, commercial trademark use between 1958 and 1981 constituted an abandonment of that mark and dramatically limits the protection to which that mark is entitled since its resumption.

		As to the text accompanying those pix, I have no links, so I'm just taking the honesty of my Brooklyn friend, who'd lived around the corner from Ebbets Field when he was a kid, and considered it his personal playground as well as a baseball cathedral.
		Many of his Eagles teammates, however, including the sensational pitcher Leon Day (front left), would have to accept greatness where they were.

		Incomplete stats show Burnett with occasional season averages in the high.300s or mid.100s, but he usually was good for a.250 average with medium power.
		In 1935, Burnett was the third-string catcher for the Brooklyn Eagles, behind Double Duty Radcliffe and Dennis Gilchrist.
		Catchers, because they are the field generals of their teams, and because it takes smarts to be a good catcher, often make good managers, and the Negro Leagues had many great catcher-managers over the years: Burnett, Double Duty Radcliffe, Quincy Trouppe and Biz Mackey to name a few.
