Quickie Quiz

Haven’t  done a quiz in awhile and the post on Newk’s Time this morning got me thinking: How did Sonny Rollins get the nickname Newk?

Yes, Rudolf, that is correct. Here’s a picture of Don Newcombe in his Dodgers uniform in the mid-1950s. And below is our Newk in a different kind of uniform.

    because of Sonny’s facial ressemblance to Don Newcombe, a baseball player.
