DON JOHNSON
"Don appeared in 29 games for the Senators in 1952. He began in 1944 in the Yankees' farm chain and divided the season between Kansas City and Newark. Don spent the next two seasons in military service.
He returned in 1947 with the Yankees and had a 4-3 record for 15 appearances. He went back to the minors the next year and remained there until 1950 which was spent with New York and St. Louis."

DAVE MADISON
"Dave returned from his second hitch of military service in the Spring of 1952. He was claimed at that time by the Browns from the Yankees and was traded to the Tigers later in the season. The big redhead was used mostly in relief by the two American League clubs, and in his four-year minor league career concentrated entirely on relief pitching, never starting a game.
Dave holds a B.S. in forestry from LSU."
