Cooperation on Expansion
new York - IUPD - Commii.
loner Ford Frick promised
future National and American
league cooperation on expan
lion today while Branch
Rickey called for Congress to
supervise the Job.
At the same time the dis
appointed officials who tried
to get Dallas-Fort Worth de
clared a major league terri
tory declared they are no
longer interested in the at
tempt and might get out of
baseball complexly.
These were the latest re
percussions of the American
league's bombshell announce
ment last week that it will
expand into a 10-team circuit
with new franchises in Wash
ington, D.C., and Los Angeles
and with the Senators shifted

"I don't want the right hand
not to know what the left
hand is doing because we get
into trouble that way," said
Frick, who announced he had
obtained an agreement from
league presidents Warren
Giles and Joe Cronin to take
future expansion moves joint
ly. "When one group goes off
half-cocked on expansion,
there is fighting and recrimi
nation. You ruin the city
you're going into and you
hurt expansion.
"I am interested in one
thing - expansion. I don't
care who goes where."
Meet Five Hours
Frick made his statements
after a five-hour meeting with
Giles and Cronin, which he
said he called four or five
days ago. He also outlined
three rules concerning player
recruitment by the new fran
chises: 1. No new club shall be
entitled to any major league
privilege until it qualifies for
membership in the American
or National league and is so
certified by the commissioner.
2. Immediately upon accep
tance for membership, new
clubs will be entitled to sign
free agents and to exchange
or purchase contracts under
the existing rules of baseball.
In addition, they will be given
preferential treatment within
their league on all waiver
claims.
3. Following completion of
the major league draft, each
new member may select two
players from minor league
clubs for the regular selection
price of $25,000 for each con
tract. Rickey Blasts AL
The 78 -year -old Rickey,
president of the defunct Con
tinental league, said "It is
now squarely up to the Con
gress of the United States to
protect major league expan
sion in this country."
"The American league did
not choose a single one of the
Continental league g r o u p,"
said Rickey. "And they did

Greenberg
Seeks Use
Of Stadium
By ALEX KAHN
Los Angeles -WP1I- Hank
Greenberg, spokesman for the
American league's proposed
Los Angeles baseball club,
went before the Coliseum
commission today seeking to
share dates in the huge sta
dium with the ?os Angeles
Dodgers during 1961.
Groundwork for the appli
cation was laid Tuesday by
Greenberg when he conferred
with commission president
George Kinsey and Coliseum
manager Bill Nicholas, who
said there were SI dates avail
able without intcrferring with
the Dodgers' National league
schedule or other tenants of
the stadium.
Greenberg then told
Dress conference that if the
American League dates are
granted the first big problem
towards bringing a franchise
here would be solved,
As representative of . the
American league's realign
ment committee, Greenberg
also was charged with seeing
that suitable financing was
available for a proposed fran
chise and he said that was
promised by C. Arnholt Smith,
San Diego, Calif., banker and
owner of the Padres club in
the Pacific Coaset league.
Greenberg emphasized that
no franchise had been grant
ed yet and it would be up to
him to satisfy the American
league that he had arranged
to meet the qualifications for
a club here before a franchise
could be granted.
So far as his own connec
tion with the proposed new
franchise was concerned,
Greenberg said he would first
have to divest himself of his
stock in the Chicago White
Sox and then he hoped to be
come a member of the new
organization.

We admit it. A standard one-ton truck carries
170 lbs. more than a Volkswagen Panel Truck
which carries 1,830 pounds.
But look what a difference a VW can make.
You'll be driving a nimble truck that knows
how to keep out of traffic jams. You can operate
two VW Trucks for what it costs you to operate
a single standard one-ton truck.
