PEE WEE REESE Vero Beach, Fla. (U.P.) Being a major league baseball player's wife has its moments of glam our. But there are hardships, too, which many people do not re alize. Spring training, for instance, presents many problems. Our friends back in Louisville, the Reeses' home town, envy Pee Wee and me when we head for spring training in Florida. They don't know that from the day training starts, I begin the life of a "baseball widow." Pee Wee has to get out every morning for training, and then when he s finished in the middle of the afternoon, he likes a little relaxation. So he plays golf with some of the boys and I don't see him until dinnertime. Expensive Living It's often difficult locating a place to stay in spring training. Wo go to a resort town in the middle of the season and rentals run high. Some of the younger players cannot even afford to bring their wives south with them, it's that expensive. When the team begins to head north, I lose my husband for several weeks. When the team gets back to Brooklyn, there is always the job of locating an apartment or a house. Sometimes it takes weeks and a player's wife has to remain at home until a suitable place is located. We've been fortunate to rent the same apartment for several years, but we're among the lucky ones. Hectic Life Once the season starts, you live a hectic schedule It wasn't so bad in the days when they played only one or two night games a week. But now they play four or five nights a week and you find yourself eating at odd hours. If the Dodgers are playing a night game, Pee Wee will have dinner before reporting to the park at four o'clock. Then when he comes home around midnight, he is naturally hungry and have to prepare a light meal for him. Because we retire long af ter midnight, our breakfast hour usually is at a time when a f J ITIEDFORD J Your Charge Account Irtvited!

The schedule might not be too bad, without children. But you can't expect children to eat at those hours. This year we have new baby, our first son, and his feeding schedule keeps me busy all day long. Has Bright Side I think the worst part of being baseball player's wife is the traveling. The club makes four western trips a year, each for two weeks. Then there are short trips to Philadelphia and Pitts burgh. As a result, my husband is away from home an average of four months a year. I guess I've mentioned onlv the dark side of this life. It has its brighter moments too. Like when Pee Wee has a eood day, or when the club wins the pennant or the World Seripe There are memories wp ran never forget. Baseball has been good to ns Reeses. Pee Wee has had a suc cessful career and he's been with a winning club most of the time. weve also traveled to places we might never have seen other wise. But anyone who thinks it i an glamorous has never had to live the life. - Foreign Student Guest in Medford Leaving Sunday, to return to their studies at the University of Oregon were Miss Carolyn Clogs ton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M.
