Frick Issues
Glove Order
Major League Baseball Com-’
missioner Ford Frick has demand
ed strict enforcement of the new
rule requiring players to take their
gloves off the playing field when
they come in to bat. As a penalty,
Frick threatened to forfeit ball
games.
Frick's stern warning was in the
form of a five-paragraph bulletin
sent to all major league clubs and
minor league presidents. The com
missioner said he was disturbed
about persistent reports that vari
ous leagues and clubs would make
their own interpretation of the
rule.
Although Frick didn't mention
names, it was reported reliably in
Florida that the American League
had voted, 7-1, to oppose the rule
and make its own interpretation
of the rule. National League Presi
dent Warren Giles earlier had is
sued a bulletin to all of his clubs,
laying down a policy of strict
enforcement.

letes from Oregon and Washington

The Webfoots lost their first
match of the season last Saturday
afternoon when they were down
