BY JACK CUDDY United Frees Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Dec 3 (HE) Jack Zeller, general manager of the De troit Tigers, believes that major league baseball has reached the crossroads, where it must choose (1) elimination of the farm sys tem, or (2) the all-out farm rivalry which only backers of great wealth can afford. : Zeller, a member of the American Amer-ican league's poatwac.plannIng committee, favors elimination of the plantations. He believes that the Independent operation of minor league clubs liar the only practical post-war course to pur sue. In this belief, he has the back ing of Walter O. Briggs, the Tig' era' owner. Opposed to "Farm" 'We favor elimination of the farms for the welfare of baseball; not for own financial reasons,1 baidisn zeller explained wltn a frank smile. Briggs Is a Detroit multi-millionaire. "We have a working agreement with Buffalo," fair-skinned Jack continued. "That is our only farm connection now. But if the other major league clubs' refuse to do the sensible thing refuse to break away from chain-store baseball, we will be forced to plunge into farming on a lavish scale. Well give them more competition than they bargained for. I hope that doesnt happen: baseball as a whole will not benefit by it" Zeller declared that farming, during the past decade, already has done nearly Irreparable harm to minor league ball. It has de- Medium Bomber Packs 75MM Cannon . i i -4 C 4 V .

"In the bid days," he said, "dti- zena of a community, :deairing to have their) own minor league club, would arrange for the building of their own ball park and the or ganization of their own team,; as community projects. But. now, when the citizens of anyflfeality consider having a club, the first thing they do is to contact a major league outfit, and ask it to provide the funds for the park and the Players. To make matters worse, they then want the major ciud officials to direct the operations of their UtUeclub. Set-Up Is Bad "This kind of a set-up is bad for all concerted. It does not foster community enthusiasm for the club; and, unless the major outfit provides' the community with a winning team, the citizens wui not attend the games; and the major owners lose money. The owners hope to be reimbursed by Tasking money with tne major cum. some of whose players may have come up from tne farm. But that's a gamble that only wealthy owners can take. "In this connection, I doubt that the St. Louis Cardinals, for ex ample, although champions of the National league, made enough money during the1 1943 season to reimburse losses Incurred on their farms." 5 When the American and National Na-tional league post-war planning committees meet with Commission er Landis "sometime next month, Zeller will suggest that major clubs have no farms below the double "A class; that no major club can otfci or control more than 40 playersf three' years after the war ends ;; that -major clubs be forbidden to sign free agents; and that aal minor league players, clear down' to the "E" circuits,! be subject to baseball draft. This would f orcl major owners to ob tain talent. by trade, purchase or draft, and eliminate lengthy, indv rect control of minor players. : MAGNA RESIDENTS PROTEST SMOKE . MAGNA. Utah.
