CHICAGO. Juno l0 - (C?) - Profeuionci girliaoftbail with l 8100.000 baiiltroli and the brains of two top-notch baseball organizat- ions behind it. hopes after spending this s in an experimental hothouse to blossom forth next year in the nation's big cities - - 118M ilion side its big brother maj- 0!‘ leaiue e all.

When Philip K. Wrigley. the Chic- ago Cubs’ owner. and Branch Rickey the Brooklyn [xidgers vice president and general manager, formed the All-American girls‘ softball league. they werent Just doing it to throw away excess cash. They visualize a d3 when tans will jam the big city b l parks to watch young lady "name" players perform.

This year the All-American girls softball league will operate on a minimum scale, in four smaller cit- ies in the Chicago area. But the operational setup is the same that will be used if their dream M l

of major softball leagues and a. fuck of minors some day comer

Everything ssilble is being done to keep the g rls’ league from re- aenlbiing the men's game. The girls will wear quarter length skirts - - no slacks, no shorts. Boy- ish haircuts are out. And the salar- ies belng offered are good enough to ass-lire the finest and fairest of talent.

‘There are a few changes made in the standard softball playing irules. The pitcher is 40 feet instead of as from home plate. There are only nine players on each team. with the traditional short fielder eliminated. Base runners may take a leadoff. The pitcher may use a glove to fac- llate deception in delivery.
