our scouts be’ watchful for players at the extremes of the game’s age limits Clubs will be 'orced to use players who are too young to he callecf for military service and the oldsters who otherwise might not be given a look by the scouts” He pointed to his own roster as an example “We have on our pitching staff Ray Starr who is 34 years old and Hewell Blackwell who is only 19 In normal times neither ol those fellows might get thorough trials byja major league outfit But now they’re mighty valuable property Before the shooting is all over you’ll likely see a lot more players' bf the Starr and Black-we- ll groups in the majors Conditions simply will demand it" Starr had brief major league trials with the Cardinals Giants and Braves in 1932 and 1933 and then slipped back into the mijiors where despite impressive records he stayed for eight years before McKechnie rescued him Blackwell is a California sand-lproduct who had never a game of professional ballpitched He originally was ticketed for Cincinnati farm team (Ogden Utah) but hurled so well in spring training that the Reds decided to keep him “In recent years" McKechnie pointed out “big league scouts always had a bountiful crop of rookies to look over and consequently could afford to be choosy about those called up to the majors Most cf the time they were leery of both an Inexperienced kid player and the veteran minor leaguer but now the sqouts necessarily will have to widen the classification of players they're willing to consider and availability for a season or two is going to be a big requireot s 5 ment” DAFFY

double-heade- rs is indeed poor business for their poor relations It is like this that causes Gerry Nugent of the Phils to reiterate “We’re broke hopeless and downtrodden but not for sale" About all the Phils can do this trip is change their name back to the Phillies and send Hans Lobert on a scouting trip The Dodgers have kept the Giants lin the National league for the past three campaigns ' The Giants played to 350000 paid admissions in 11 games with the Dodgers at the Bolo grounds in 1941 They played to no more than 450000 in 66 appearances of other aggregations in the lee of Coogan’s Bluff That gives yob a rough idea Dykes is Unshackled Ford Frick’s rule forbidding managers coaches or any one else rush on the field to protest ainst rulings by the umpire-in-ion called strikes etc is quite likely to leave Brooklyn Pitts- bijirgh and Boston without a manager a good deal of the time Imagine Leo Durocher Frank Frisch and Casey Stengel paying arty attention to a red light when' a close one is called against them A regulation of that kind will cause Onkle Franz Frisch to butt his head against the water container harder than ever Meanwhile Jimmy Dykes of the White Sox upshackled in the American league will keep repeating that there’s nothing wrong with umpires that a pair of glasses wouldn’t cure The Reds among other things are fairly certain to buy a during the baseball season Ernie Lombardi figures to hit into a record number of double plays at Braves’ field where Strategist Stengel permits the lush infield grass to grow thick and tall the better to enable Eddie Miller and the hoys to get their hands on what otherwise would be hot grounders The Cubs can be depended upon to make a bad deal Break Up The Yankees!
