Klamath Falls Gems
May Discontinue Play
KLAMATH FALLS, March t-i.V)
The Klamath Falls Gems of the
Far West baseball loop may not
field a team this year due to fi
nancial difficulties, according to
business Manager Dick Maguire.
A drive to raise 335,000 through
bond sales has fallen far short,
Maguire said, with only $6,500 thus
far raised. '
He termed the (35,000 as the
'bare minimum" necessary to
make the club financially sound.
Maguire implied that if the en
tire amount had not been raised
by spring taining time, April 1,
the club would be disbanded.
"We have a backyard full of
good ball players." Maguire la
mented, "but no money with which
to operate".
