for. the fund was realized by each Camp Adair and Fort Lewis
for the Salem appearance, and the only thing taken out of the
$403 gross was the government

the balls used were tossed in by
the Senator ball club.

' Clubs 'Strengthen'
For World Series;
Nats Give Up Both
By JUDSON BAILEY
NEW YORK, Aug. 31-(-The
deadline for player eligibility In
the world series caused both pros
pective rivals, the New York
Yankees and the Brooklyn Dodg
ers, to make an emergency trip to
market Monday and both went
to the same market. i - ? ;
In two deals with the Wash
Jngtoa Senators the Dodgers ob-
;- tained garrulous old Louis Bo-
bo Newsom, righthanded pitch
er who starred for Detroit hi the
1S4S series, and the ; Yankees
bought Outfielder Roy Cullenbine.;-;';
;V.--V-r?-R;-
By getting , the players Monday
the Clubs made them available for
service in the . series, which Is
limited to performers who were
on the rosters ot the competing
dubs at midnight August 31.
The Dodgers had been trying to
get Newsom off and On since be
fore the season started. During
spring training they made over
tures to ! the Detroit Tigers, , but
Washington knd the St. Louis
Browns refused to give waivers.
Then Detroit sold him to Wash
ington and Brooklyn made another
futile try and about a month ago
the Dodgers tried again. This
time waivers: were. .obtained On
Newsom, but not on Alex Kamp-
ouris, a Dedgef utility player who
was to have been put In the deal.
. The ' amount of money paid
for Newsom was not announced,
but probably exceeded the waiv
er price of 87500. In addition
Brooklyn sent to " Washington
: lefthanded Pitcher Jack Krsus,
who has been at the Dodgers
farm In Montreal. "
. No figures were given out eith
er, on the straight cash transaction
which brought Cullenbine to the
Yanks, but it "was believed the
Washington club netted at least
$25,000 or 830,000 In the two deals,
both of which had to go through
the waiver process. .
Cullenbine, one of baseball's
best golfers, also Is a former De
troit player, but " was given his
free . agency by Commissioner
Kenesaw M. Landis in 1939 when
Landis cut the Tigers' bonds on
some SO , players for mishandling
of contracts. Afterward Cullen
