BASEBALL'S EAR
TUNED TO MEET
OF BIG Li
National Sport's Place In
War Picture May Be Set
Forth Trading Slumps.
By Judson Bailey
Chicago. Dec. 11. (JP) Base
ball had its ear tuned tor to
day's joint meeting of the major
leagues as the possible sound
ing board tor a statement of the
sport's war aims.
The National and American
leagues have been in separate
and secret sessions for two days
and much of the discussion of
the owners has been concerning
problems created by the war.
Up till now Commissioner
Kenesaw M. Landis has remain
ed virtually silent about base
ball's place in the national ef
fort but it was believed the
Joint meeting would produce
some expression irom organ
ized baseball as to its plans.
Trading Slumps
Trading calmed down over
night the only new deal being
the Cleveland Indians' purchase
of pitcher Vernon Kennedy
from the Washington Senators
for about the waiver price of
$7,500. The one-time Detroit
star won only three games and
lost 11 last season while split
ting his services between St.
Louis and Washington.
The absence of trades helped
turn the full spotlight on the
business sessions of the leagues,
the owners wrangled all day
long about the amendment to
the major-minor rules ' which
the minors adopted unanimous
ly in an attempt to loosen the
restrictions on the movement of
players within farm systems.
A Joint steering committee
appointed from the two leagues
was unable to agree on the
amendment and It was under
stood the magnates read no
fewer than tour different mean
ings into the rule. As a last
device It was planned to have
Landis Interpret the rule today
before it came up for a vote
in the joint session.
There was a chance some
final trades might be rushed
through before the owners arid
managers left town, but no new
Indications were to be seen and
the best tip continued to be the
New York Yankees' dickering
tor first baseman Dolph Cam
1111 of the Brooklyn Dodgers.

SALE OF TIRES
PUT UNDER BAN
TO SAVE RUBBER
-Washington, Dec. 11. W)
A prohibition of the sale of rub
ber tires and tubes, effective
until Dec. 22, went into effect
today on order of the govern
ment pending the formulation
of "a more permanent" plan for
controlling rubber distribution.
Donald M. Nelson, OPM pri
orities director, Issued the order
banning the sale of tires to the
public to curb what the OPM
termed "a consumers' buying
wave" which started quickly
after the outbreak of war in the
Pacific.
Only persons or firms granted
the high OPM priority prefer
ence rating of A-3 may be sold
tires or tubes, the announce
ment said.
The prohibition stipulated
that without a preference rating
now new tires or tubes for auto
mobiles, trucks, buses, motor
cycles, farm implements or
other machines may be sold by
anyone including wholesale or
retail dealers.
The restriction does not apply
to the sale of used tires and
tubes, re-treaded tires or to tires
or tubes furnished with new or
used automobiles.
Under the OPM order, proces
sors are prohibited for the time
being from consuming or pro
cessing any rubber except for
defense needs approved by the
OPM.
