Beavers Boiimce Iinitto
" Spot With 6 to
Thanks to the shortcomings of the National Association of
Professional Baseball leagues, whose executive committee has oft
times proven to be apparently naught but stooges for the major
leagues, we've probably seen the last of Whackin Jack Warren,

this semester, and what with the National association's laws and by
laws being what they are, Warren is as attached to the Senators
about as much as is Joe DiMaggio. He's one thing of which there isn't
much of these times free. So if the Dodgers want him all they
need do is get him to pen their document delivery okeh after the war.
Might Insert here that this Is the second time Downer has
cast his shadow m the Senator front office It was he who argued
Woodburn WIHJ0 Hananska Into signing a Dodger pact last
summer Instead of the attractive set-ay offered Hananska by the
. Salons. '
Had Him Sold to Cincinnati , -
'Course it makes no difference to the National association that our
town Senators had Warren all but delivered to Cincinnati's Reds, last
summer, . with . price agreed upon and all, when his draft number
came up and he instead joined the Coast Guard. Instead of legislating
allowances wherein the Salem club, and other clubs facing the same
circumstances for that matter, could reserve Warren until after the
war and then sell him for the few thousand pesos the club should
rightfully get -for its investment, the esteemed Association saw fit
to let ride a silly rule which makes all playing personnel in any
capacity free agents in the event the club does not function. '
All well and rood if the particular, player in question Is free
to play ball. Bat when he's tied up with the bigger game and
' will be playing no professional ball until It's ever, then the law
is as- idiotic as some of the things the Association persists on
doing. The Senators eaa bow in no way protect themselves on
Warren and lose their Investment. " t
Runs, Hits, Errors of Another Type -
A like example: You own a piece of real estate. The war comes
along and makes it impossible for you to keep on cultivating mat
property. So because you are helpless to cultivate it, the big boy up
In the next block, wanting that piece and being in no way restricted
on using his cultivator, steps in and takes over while you sit by
powerless to do anymorethan cuss the unfair law.
: Sure, "Warren" could louse up the whole works by declaring.
"No, Tm going to be faithful and stick with the Senators through
thick and thin." Yeah, he could do that, but like any other ball
player who yearns for his big break and finally sees a chance to
grab It, he wont. '
Some tun, eh? There's more to this baseball than runs, hits and
errors of the regular game type. In this instance the National asso
ciation hit the little fellas, then proceeded to run all over 'em. The
error? Well, what do you think? i
Incidentally, Warren is scheduled -back from school abont
June 2, and that to say the least is a mighty red-lettered day for
our ex-slugger. Seems Jack left for school Just three weeks before
his baby son was born, so Is very anxious to get through school
and home to see the heir for the first time.

TV Ball Game;
PHILADELPHIA, April 27-(P)
The track-minded Phillies won,
the foot race, but lost their home
opening ball game to the. league
leading Brooklyn Dodgers, 4 to 2,
before 4291 fans Tuesday.
The foot race termed an Aus
tralian pursuit race by youthful
33-year-old Phils owner, William
D. Ox was part of the p re-game
series dampened by inclement
weather. To track fans it was
more like a Perm relay race.
It went this way: A Dodger
started at second base and a
Phil player at home. Each tore
around the bases and passed a
baton to the next member , of
his team. After eight players 1
had circled the sacks the Phils
were adjudged to be farther
ahead and hence the winner.
But once the umpires called
