Emerson of Pull man, Wash., governor of the northwest district of Kiwanis International. Mr. Emerson, a retired mer chant, spoke on "American Cit izenship."

He said he has per sonally visited 82 of the 96 clubs and would visit the others be fore his tenure expires January 1. In visiting the various units he has motored 27,000 miles.

Four of the crew still were missing. AS PLAYER, MANAGER Portland, Nov. 3 OP) Man ager William Joseph (Bill) Swee ney, whose popularity and bat-! ting talents paid dividends in at tendance at Portland's Vaughn street baseball park, was the property of the Hollywood Stars in the Pacific Coast league today. Sweeney, manager and first baseman for the beavers since 1936, will be Hollywood's play ing manager. Although his con tract here ran through the 1940 season, the deal was completed at his own request. E. J. Schefter, Portland owner, announced the Stars paid $10, 000, the biggest cash outlay for one man in the league's history. The cost to Hollywood, however, was estimated at about $30,000, inasmuch as 810,000 must be paid to make good on Manager Red Killefer s 1940 contract and another $10,000 put out for Sweeney's first-year paycheck.; "Of course, we could have held bill to his 1940 contract as our manager and blocked the deal," Schefter said, "but it was such a wonderful chance for him that we just didn't feel we should stand in his way." Sweeney skippered the Bea vers into the 1937 championship playoff. His successor probably will not be named until the minor league meeting at Cincin nati, December 4 to 6. Use Mall Tribune want ads.
