Aside from appolntmg a creden- tials committee headed by .1. Al- vin Gardner of the "suspended" Texas league and a resolution com- mittee under Thomas H. Richard- son of the Eastern League. the baseball men were more occupied in drawing post-war boom plans,

Some of the more daring have decided to give it a whirl in 1945. the North Carolina State and Car- olina circuits having raised the active list to 12 leagues. A Cami. dlan league to be made up of Que- bec and Ontario cities and en In- diana State league also are in the formative stage.

On the future list. but not for 1045. is a New York State circuit of the American members of the Canadian-American League which elected Albert Houghton president to succeed Rev. Harold J. Martin.

The Texas League decided to re- main "suspended for another year and the Canadian-American and Sally [leagues were content tostay on the sidelines fnr the duration. The revived middle Atlantic and New York loops are still in the talking stage and not thinking a- bout 1945.

Big trouble. in this writer's opin- ion. with the Coiiclzians‘ perform- ance was their lack of finish a- round their opponents’ not. Time after time throughout the game they worked into close scoring pn- sifion as the result of smart pass- ing plays but. on many occasions they fumbled their chances by faulty passing I'll‘ more particularly incflective shooting.‘

This of course was to be more or less expected when it is considered that the squad haven't had but a couple of chances to work as a unit 11p to Tuesday's game. but with the experience gained in that tussle it is likely that they will be a very much improved squad when

The bout was the third engage- ment between Pep and Wright and was Peizvs third triumph. Most of the action was crowded into the later rounds with Pep flicking rights inm Chalky‘s face.

Pep was by far the better boxer and Wright landed only one sdlid blow during the bout. That was in the fifth when Wright smashed the titlcholders nose with a hard right and drew blood. The Asso- ciated Press score card awarded Pep nine of the l0 rounds. grant- ing WriBht the fifth.
