Phillies' Boss Worries
Over Loss of Prospects
Philadelphia, Dec. 22 (IP)
Fresident Bob Carpenter is wor
ried about the reluctance of
other clubs to do business with
his Philadelphia Phillies.
"Why, you'd think we had
leprosy or something the wey
other clubs steered away from
us at the New York meeting
last week," the youthful Phil
lies' executive said.
"I can remember the day
when our hotel room tele
phone at a major league meet
ing never stopped ringing.
Everybody wanted to deal
witli us. But not this year.
"Oh, everybody was polite.
'Hello, Bob, how are you' and
all that sort of stuff But talk
about ball players, no. You'd
think we were in the ping pong
business."
Carpenter was informed that
he was paying the price of be
ing a winner and a pennant
threat. The Phillies' president
isn't used to being near the top.
He's just learning that when
your team is good nobody wants
to make you better.
Carpenter admitted he was
a little worried about his
team's prospects next year.
"After all, we finished third
last season, thanks to great
years on the part of veterans
like Ken Hcintzelman and
Hank Borowy. But suppose
those two don't repeat.
"Of course we have some fine
rookies coming up. A pitcher
like Bubba Church from Toron
to can mean the difference be
tween third and second place."

Defeats Longden
Mrs. Wantha Davis, 32, veteran mid
west and west county fair and bush
track rider, beat America's Champion Jockey Johnny Long
den in a six-furlong match race held at Agua Calientc, Mex.
She is shown in the winner's circle on Northeast, held by an
unidentified groom. Northeast led Longden's Grey Spook to
the finish by a length and three-quarters in 1:12. Track of
ficials rated the horses as equals. (AP Wirephoto)
Fireman Joe Deserves Pay Boost
New York, Dec. 22 (IP) Memo
to George M. Weias, general
manager of the New York
Yankees:
When you come to Joe Page's
name on your 1D50 salary list,
make it big.
Fireman Joe has the goods on
you in black and white. He
couldn't have done better by
writing the script for the 1949
world series pictures previewed
yesterday.
When the lights go down
and the scries movies start,
Page glitters brighter than
Hopalong Cassidy. Both get in
trouble but Fireman Joe wig
gles home first without shoot
ing iron or lassno.
They say around town that
Page, who appeared in 60 regu
lar season and two world series
games for the champion Yanks,
will want at least $25,000 next
summer.
Like most clubs, the Yanks
never announced salaries.
However, it's "reliably re
ported" that Fireman Joe got
"about $20,000" last summer.
He'll certainly want more in
'50.
Contracts won't be mailed out
for several weeks. Every day
the '49 scries pictures are shown,
Page is going to look more con
vincing. As the prints won't be
available for public showings
until January 5, maybe Weiss
had better get in touch soon.
The scries films, directed by
Lew Fonscca for the American
and National baseball leagues
have many a eloscup of hand
some Joe. When Page isn't in
view, the Yankee cause is
ably supported by Bobby
By JACK HAND
Brown, Allie Reynolds, Tom
my Henrich or Phil Rizzuto.
When you win a series, 4-1,
there can't be much controver
sial material to air during the
winter. It hardly matters that
the movies showed Gene Hcr
manski might have been safe
sliding home in the second
game. That was the only game
Brooklyn won, anyhow.
The excellent films represent
ed many weeks of work by Fon-
seca and his staff, who cut
20,000 feet down to 3,700 feet
for a 35-minute showing. Some
how or other, they forgot to
show whether Tommy Henrich
touches first base or not after
hitting the game-winning homer
in the ninth inning of the Yanks'
1-0 opening victory. The camera
caught Tommy as he kicked sec
ond base with vehemence.
Ford Frick, National league
president who has been some
what in seclusion since early
October, came down from his
17th story office to say a few
words:
At a distance they sounded
something like "wait until
next year." Mr. Frick is a very
patient man.
