The GCD Of Larry Doby And Allen Ginsberg

________________________________________________________________________________________________


Hall of Famer, Larry Doby,
was the first African-American
baseball player to win 
a World Series ring.

His team, the Cleveland Indians,
won the 1948 World Series.

The New York Yankees had won
the five previous World Series,
defeating Jackie Robinson's
Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947
(and also in 1949).






Allen Ginsberg  was a poet 
and political activist who helped
define the Beat Generation 
and the counter-culture 
of the Sixties.

Both Mr. Doby and Mr. Ginsberg
attended  East Side High School
in Paterson, New Jersey.

GCD stands for 
Greatest Common
Denominator.
