These songs were called sea chanteys.Long after the last working square rigged ship retired sea buffs in steamship ward rooms, on motor yachts and at folk song concerts continued to sing these songs of the sea.With the proliferation of seaport museums up and down both coasts of the US, sea chanteys are more popular than ever.When the South Street Seaport Museum in New York opened for business back in 1967, Bernie Klay and The XSeamens Institute started to sing on the piers. This quartet of rollicking sea chantey singers sang 927 sea song concerts at South Street.Fourteen of the best known songs in The X Seamens.repertoire have been published in the \cassette album. Included are : Drunken Sailor, Shenandoah, Eddystone Light and Blow the Man Down. The lyrics are the same as those sung by shellbacks 100 years ago in the Age of sail.The album comes in a water-proof zip-loc bag, along with a sing-a-long songbook and a windjammer print. It sells in ship chandleries for S15.ft is published along with 10 other sea chantey albums by the non-profit Sea Heritage Foundation at 254-26 75 Avenue, Glen Oaks, NY 11004.

I gave him the telegram myself, he was right next to me as I stand before you.%u201d He had seen God himself, it seemed, and lived to tell the story some 35 years later here in Brooklyn Heights.The location was appropriate, too, for the Heights, it seemed from the other guests, had been a big haunt of the Dodgers during those years. The players used to drink and hang out at the Bossert and St. George, and the club had its executive offices right on Montague Street.PICKING OUT THE PLAYERSOver in one comer of the exhibit hangs a team photo taken in the mid 1950%u2019s, and a group of men, some in business suits and others in typical bleacher fan regalia were going through the picture, naming all the players, and event the trainers, road manager and director of public relations. There were some of my heroes there as well %u2014 Gil Hodges, Duke Snider, Cookie Lavagetto and Sandy Koufax %u2014 some of whom the Mets brought in for the twilight of their diamond careers.I looked around some more, and then it was time to go. On the steps of the society, I started talking to two gentlemen, I think their names were Larry and Vinny, each exactly 10 years older than me, but the same kind of guys that I knew very well from my days growing Up in Queens playing siiuk'uau ill the city parks and streets, trading baseball cards, keeping stats on the games and arguing forever about who was best, Mantle, Mays or McCovey. Except these guys were Dodger rooters and not Met rooters, for there was no reason for the Mets to exist back then, and all at once I knew what it must have been like.%u201cWe hated the Giants, nobody we knew was a Giants fan %u2014 oh, except for your cousin Looey, but that was OK, we%u2019d look for Giant fans to beat up, and forget about the Yankees, those jerks from the city and the Bronx, we wuz Dodgers all the way,%u201d said Larry. %u201cThey%u2019d come around right here, the Heights, and we%u2019d see them in bars and restaurants, and they wuz our friends, Carl Erskine and Pee Wee. I mean, those were great teams %u2014 they had so many great ballplayers. Cal Abrams, he would have been great on any other team, he couldn%u2019t get in the lineup. I mean, when the Dodgers left, we couldn%u2019t believe it, we cried. I mean, I didn%u2019t watch baseball for years. I didn%u2019t care about the L. A. Dodgers, and baseball was never the same.%u201dgHORT TAKEgPACC COP MEETING: The Pratt Area Community Council will hold a planning meeting to step up its Civilian Observation I atrol (COP) efforts on October 28, at 7pm.
