Plan Dominion Baseball Final

CHICAGO. Jan. 24 -(OP) Tournament: will be held in East- ern and Western Canada this year to determine the Dominion finalists for the non-professional baseball championship, it was an- nounced here today. '

Lloyd Douglas of Toronto, a

Congress session here. said the Western champion will be determ- ined in a tournament in Saskat- chewan or British Columbia early in August.

The Eastern playoff will be held in Ontario at the same time.

A five-game series for the of- ficial Dominion crown has been tentatively set to start Aug. 25. Where it will be played has not been decided.

Eastern champions last year- and also Canadian tltleholders be- cause lhere was no East-West final-were Oshawa Merchants. They defeated London, Ont., Maj- ors, 1949 winners.

Minor Baseball Leagues Facing Tough Problems

NEW YORK. Jan, 25 - (CF) - Folding of the Southeastern and Alabama State Leagues is the first break in the solid front of baseball's minor leagues since the 1950 season.

Manpower, financial and trans- portation problems threaten the entire minorleaguestructure. How many of the 55 remaining leagues can survive is problematical.

Several leagues met Sunday to debate their fate, hoping to shift a. franchise or two and continue.

"At least 10 will go," said a minor league official who did not want his name used. "I'm afraid it will be more. There just won't be enough ball players to go around."

Most of the problems are con- centrated in leagues below Class B. These circuits with their low salaries and inexperienced players are particularly vulnerable.

The Canadian American League. Class C., has given Kingston, N. Y.. until Saturday to take up a vacant franchise.

No Special Draft Treatment For ll.S. Alhleies

By Arthur Edson

WASHINGTON. Jan 25 -(AP) - The excitement over drafting 4-F athletes into the United States armed services Wednesday simmered down to this:

Athletes will get the same treat- ment every one else does, no bet- ter and no worse.

Furthermore. a spokesman for the Surgeon General's Office said thats the way it was in the Sec- ond World War. He said athletes who were classified in 4-F then definitely belonged there.

Under the present law, only those who are from 19 to 26 years old are eligible. The field is fur- ther cut because lhme who are married, are veterans or have de- pendents are exempt.

Mrs. Anna Rosenberg. assistant secretary of defence. told report- ers today: s

"Athletes will be regarded like anyone else when it comes to pos- sible deferment."

Kansas City To Give Daytime Baseball Try

(By Whitney Martin) NEW YORK. Jan. 95-(Al?)--The

daytime baseball. three days a week, an innovation equivalent to holdln a dog show at a flea circus, or vice versa.

played in the daytime. but younger players consider it just ll fish-wife's ale?

They just can't imagine playing ball under the sun, blinking into the glare and staggering around under fly balls. Besides. it would change the entire routine of their lives. They would have to sleep at night and eat at mealtime.

It takes at least a. young old-timer

in the class C and class D leagues.

that they actually did it.

Those were the days, pally. The days when you went to the ball park early and sometimes were per- mltted to snag files. or even pitch batting practice, and then would hang around unobtrusively hoping you wouldn't get kicked out when the paying customers siarted to arrive.

If Parke Carroll, the Kansas City club's business nianager, can bring back daylight ball in the minor leagues he'll go down in history along with Ell Whitney. Edison, and even Larry MacPhail, who brought night baseball to the ma)- ors,

Carroll's idea is the product of necessity. Television is making such inroads into attendance at night games that drastic measures are necessary. and nothing seems more drastic than playing in the day- liiht.

Virgil Trucksv Takes 25 Per Cent Salary tut

DETROIT. Jan. 25 - (AP) Fireballer Virgil Trucks tool: a 25- per-cent salary cut Tuesday in sign- ing his 1951 contract to pitch for Detroit Tigers.

Trucks balked last week at tak- ing the maximum cut allowed by baseball lnw and said he wouldn't do it, but general manager Billy Evans of the Tigers said Virgil inked the original contract today.

He made S30.000 last. year. The new contract cuts him to 522,500.

Trucks, bothered by a sore arm all season. won only three games for Detroit last year. He lost one. In 1949 Trucks won 19 and lost ll.

The Tigers also announced that leflhander Earl Johnson. formerly of Boston Red sex. has signed his 1961 contract.

Expect Draft To Make No llpheaval

In Major Baseball

NEW YORK, Jan. 25-(AP) - Unless the draft age is raised and veterans and married men are taken into service there will be no upheaval in the major league baseball ranks next summer. Approximately 40 per cent of the players on the big league ros- ters, including untested rookies. are in the l9-through-25 age class. However, most of them are mar- ried. Most of them also have past military service.

An exact breakdown number of veterans, and military eligibles is not available. Several clubs said they did not keep such records.

A check of rosters showed that only a. handful would be affected if men turned down for military service were drafted for non- combat jobs.

Allies which did away with war- time wcmen's branches of the ser- vices entirely." (701. Josh Kennedy. now living in Victoria. said today. she said nursing sisters always were part of the service and that she was referring to the other wom- enis sections.
