I could find no reference to all this stuff about Nepal, Tibet, enlightenmnet, etc. Can a source be given, please? Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης) 19:51, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
In the comments about the 1960 World Series, it could be interpreted that Elroy Face won game seven. Not so. Harvey Haddix was credited with the victory. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.97.130.53 ( talk) 04:36, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Has anyone heard that Face played the banjo and sang a song titled "Pert Near, But not Plumb?" 70.233.155.141 ( talk) 01:36, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
There's currently an ugly allegation about Face's relationship with Clemente, added by anonymous user 70.215.64.171 on 12 May without any reference. A quote on page 63 of Roberto Clemente: Baseball Star and Humanitarian, by Lew Freedman, contradicts the gist of the section. I think the claim either needs to be substantiated or struck. -- Ewilen ( talk) 06:55, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
I see that someone went ahead and removed that section. A few searches using "elroy face" have turned up some hints. In the interest of fairness:
http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Roberto_Clemente_Bibliography_-_TSN's_RC_Chronology "I’d always assumed it was Jack Hernon, who 1) displayed on occasion a palpable antipathy toward Clemente [somewhat akin to Pirate reliever Elroy Face’s attitude toward his Puerto Rican teammate]"
http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Saluting+Pittsburgh's+finest.-a0181757196 "This book by Maraniss is as comprehensive and accurate a work on a major sports icon as we have read. If there is a weakness (and there is not much of one), it is that no one--even after reading this moving, informative work--will know the truth concerning the much rumored (and possibly apocryphal) knife fight that was said to have occurred between Clemente and teammate Elroy Face."
