Only one waiver request could last iNlluiuaj, " n ii v...v.w--a, - Pirates. This means that President Larry MacPhail of the New York Yankees and others in the American league did not even bother to put In a claim for him. MacPhail, explaining why he let Greenberg be waid out of the league, said he had tried three times since last fall to land Greenberg, but that each time he was turned down. Yet when he might have had opportunity to get Greenberg for the $10,000 .' 1 1 i waiver price, he failed to take Ski Hoist Will Move A public ski tow will be in operation for lovers ot the snow sport next Sunday at Crater lake, according to Charlie Fyock, man ager of the Crater Lake com pany. The tow, installed by Al Vincze, will be 1000-foot lift and located at the rim on Knob hill.

Instead of exclusive ski tow privileges asked by Vines in his original sub-contract, he is ' givsn "preferential" privileges . as to locations lor his commer cial tow operation. In that manner private non-profit lifts, such as those run by individual ski clubs, are not excluded. For this coming Sunday one tow will be running, powered by a V-8 motor, and possibly an other tow will also be running, Fyock said. Two buses will also begin run- rung from the park headquarters and the rim Sunday, at 10 cents per tnp Additional dormitory space has been provided for 19 more men for overnight. Fyock said, mak inc facilities available for about 90 persons at the park now. A record crowd was checked in at the park last week-end and the best of the skiing season is still coming.

MacPhail declared the Tigers would not have allowed Green berg to go to the Yankees, or any i other potentially strong Amen- can league club. That might have : been true, but neither MacPhail nor anybody else gave the Tigers a chance to prove or disprove it. under tn new ruling passea by both major leagues during the Los Angeles meeting last month each club is allowed three cracks at any player put on th waiver list. A request for waivers on any player can not b withdrawn by th sam club more than twic in any calendar year. The rule states "whenever a request for waivers is withdrawn on any player, waivers on that player may not again be request ed until 30 days after the ex piration date of such waiver re quest." i Greenberg, himself, expressed surprise and disappointment upon being sold by the Tigers. In a prepared statement to the press yesterday, the Bronx-born slugger said: "Ihe news that I was sold to Pittsburgh, which I heard over the radio, came as a complete surprise. "My whole major league base ball career has been spent in a Detroit uniform and I regret leaving my teammates, many of whom are my close friends. "Naturally, after this long and pleasant relationship 1 am dis appointed to be sold from the Detroit club and waived out of the American league."
