Now almost all of us were aware that baseball was a very sick boy indeed but that ill in on the verge of passing into oblivion may come as a rather distressing shock. Egan says I: effect that hatte- ball is not dying a natural death but is being slowly but surely murdered by irresponsible club owners whose interest in the game is in the same ratio as the amount of greenbncks they can get from It. He says that most of today's owners are "prnmotors. contract- ors. tax write-off experts. real- estsle wizards. hustlers and plain money-moochers". and cites as they onlv living "baseball man" now active as owners Horace Stone-ham. Tom Yowkey. the descendants of Charles Comrniskey. and Clark Griffith. If Egan's charges are true. and the most certainly seem to be from the evidence he puts forth, then these "money-changers" are not really able business men at all but a group of blindly - groping. addle-pated nincompoops possess- ing absolutely no foresight what- ever. As a prime example of the business approach to baseball we have this almost unbridled televis- ing of major league games which statistics prove beyond a reason- able doubt is killing baseball at its roots - the minor leagues. Now the farmer who believes that the quick- est mcthud of getting his apples to market is by cutting down the trccs to eliminate any unnecessary climbing will very likely get the earliest delivery and the biggest prices for his crop. but he will surely be in a sweat when market time comes next year when he not only has no apples but no trees.

I Mark Fannon. the vetern sports critic. had a high opinion of "Ace" and in referring to Lem Moore's Dartmouth middle-weight he said: "Better than average boxers are coming down from the Maritime Provinces these days. "Ace" Mc- Cluskey took on Bill Henderson of Hackensack. N..I. for his first opponent in Worchester and the outcome was a draw. That feat: alone is worth mentioning and it Is' by far the best work done so far by the 19-year-old McCluskey. If this is what they are developing way down east it is going to bel an uncomfortable situation for the New England fighters. Either the Canadians are getting better or we are slipping. But in either case it is a healthy situation for the boxing game. ”In Meeting Henderson the Ace took on a formidable foe. a fighter who had beaten Leo Sawicki in the same ring not so long ago and Sawicki is a rugged foe. ”We can use more McCliiskcys". Chris Sheban staged a highly successful boxing card at the Mone- ton Stadium Thursday night. Patterson. the number one con- tender for Archie Moorels light- heavy title. had little trouble dis- posing of Williams in the eighth round. The most I-t'owd-plcasing boiil on: the card leatiired Cobcy Mt-Cluskey of Charloffctffwn and Lou Lawrence; of Vancouver. It was a ding-dong battle from hell to hell. Gaston dropped a hearl-break- ing decision to Doug Odo. It could well have been called a draw. Bobby Quinn punched out a de- cisive .'l-round k.o. over Y o ting Cormier.
