House May Look

WASHINGTON opt Organiz
ed baseball soon may come under
the eye of house monopoly investi
gators.
This became known today in ad
vance of a scheduled meeting 11
p.M. KSTi of the House judiciary
subcommittee on monopoly power.
The session was called to map new
avenues for the committee's two
year-old inquiry into monopolistic
tendencies.
Chairman Celler (D-NY i was re
ported to favor a proposal to give
baseball a quick once-over on Us
compliance with the federal anti
trust laws.
The baseball investigation, in the
event it is voted, is expected to cen
ter on organized baseball's long
discussed “reserve" clause. This is
a contract provision giving club
owners virtually absolute tights
over the services of their players.
It has been criticized as a denial
of the right of free bargaining in
the commonly accepted sense.
Only recently a $150,000 court
suit was started by Jim Peuder
gast, a member 'of the Syracuse
club of the International League, to
test this long-established feature of
organized baseball.
Any “monopoly" study of base
ball's structure also would be likely
to include the waiver rule as well.
Under this rule, no player may be
transferred from one league to an
other even though he is offered a
higher salary unless every club in
the league he is in first waives his
services.
Brown Bomber

DETROIT </P> If ole Joe Louis
r-an't kayo the lesser-lights with his
best punches, what'll happen when
he tackles someone like Lee Sa
vold ?
Louis said today he was satis
fied with his l ighthand punch. May
be he is, but many of the 7,001 fans ;
at Olympia Stadium last night
weren't.
Thev thought the former heavy-:
weight champion might knock out ,
Omelio Agramonte of Cuba in the
way that made Joe a great heavy
weight champion for 12 years.
But Joe couldn't finish off the
lanky Cuban in the 10-round fight ;
although he floored him once. Joe
won a unanimous decision. And now
it's on to Lee Savold, Biilish and
European Heavyweight Champion, j
International Boxing Club promo
ters hadn't settled on the June date j
or place for the fight.
If Joe can beat Savold, who fig- j
ures to be tougher than Agramonte,
the Brown Bomber hoped to tangle i
with World Heavyweight Champi
on Ezzard Charles again.
