he hoped attendance had "turned
tlie corner" and would Increase
next season.
Minor league teams attracted
19,042, B25 paying fans last oeason,
a drop of 542.994 from 1954. Traut
man was optimistic about the loss
just the same.
Thnt s the smallest drop In
five years, only two per cent," he
said. "Maybe we have turned the
corner and will be on our way up
soon. Minor league baseball is
healthy and will get more robust."
Trautman was happy to note
that all 33 leagues .which started
out finished the season, unlike the
previous year. The minora did lose
the class D Kitty League, which
decided at the end of the season
to disband. Its attendance dropped
from 241.260 in 1954 to 120,187 this
season.
PCL GAINS
Best attendance In the minors
was that of the Pacific Coast
League, with a gain of 37,569 over
1954 for a paid attendance of

Cambell Predicts 300
Speedboat Time
By HAL WOOD
. United Press Sports Writer
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (UP) Don
Campbell, the handsome young
British speedboat king, predicted
todv that 300 miles an hour would
be attainable for speedboats of the
future.
While the world eagerly awaits
his record-smashing attempts on
Lake Mead near here, Campbell
is so sure that he can surpass his
piesent mark of 202-plus miles
per hour, that he already is look
ing to the future.
The daredevil pilot, son of the
late Sir Malcolm Campbell, an
other speed demon on land and
sea, holds court daily at his press
headquarters in the Sahara Hotel
here. A half dozen English news
papermen cover his every move,
while newsreel and television
cameramen set up their cameras
every time he ventures on the
lake.
"What are you going to do after
you smash the record here, as
suming you do?" he was asked.
"I'll probably build another
boat, old boy," he said, "and try
to boost the mark further.
"I think that speeds of 300 miles
an hour are attainoble on water."
Campbell isn't sure just how
fast his present boat, the Blue
bird, will go. It is a single-engine
jet affair that weighs 5000 pounds.
Is 26 feet long and 10'j feet wide.
Most of the weight Is In the en
gine. "Our biggest problem In setting
speed records on water," he points
out, "is finding a stretch of
smooth water that is long enough

to get up to the top speed.
"For Instance, the other day
here I entered the measured mile
at only 140 miles an hour, but
came out at around 220. The speed
measurement was 192.176 miles
per hour. So you can see why I'm
optimistic about cracking the
mark.
"Also, the top speed in that run
gives you an idea of what the
world mark eventually may be."
The little fellow is losing weight
rapidly here, due to a change In
diets. He Is a bundle of nervous
energy who lives, breathes and
sleeps world records.
"When you are trying to set a
world record." he says, "you think
of nothing else. Twenty-four hours
a day you plan, scheme and
dream about It. Some of my crew
averages only three or four hours
sleep per night. At one stretch,
they got only four hours sleep In
more than two days. But if we
crack the present mark, it will be
well worth the time and money
spent."

Nats Trade Star,
Get Draft Choice
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
NEW YORK (UP) The Wash
ington Senators'gave up their best
player when they Included Mickey
Vernon In tie recent nine-player
deal with the Boston Red Sox. but
can replace him for a mere $10,
000 on Nov. 28 when they make
first pick In the annual baseball
draft.
Manager Charley D r e s s e n
warned not to forget "we have
first pick In the draft" when the
deal was announced and It's dol
lars to doughnuts he meant the
Senators will, attempt to make up
for the loss of Vernon by drafting
Glenn (Rocky) Nelson from the
Montreal Royals.
Nelson, who failed In previous
trails with the St. Louis Cardinals,
Brooklyn Dodgers and Cleveland
Indians, had a spectacular season
in the International League this
year. He topped the circuit with
a .364 average, hit 37 homers and
knocked In 129 runs In 153 games,
and was voted the league's "Most
Valuable Player."
BARGAIN HUNT
In any event, such intriguing
possibilities will make Columbus,
Ohio, the center of the baseball
world's attention when all 16 ma
jor league clubs "go bargain hunt
ing" in two weeks.

this year the' list includes an un
usually large number of well-known
names. 1
They Include such former major
league stars as outfielder Monte
Irvin, slugger Luke Easter and
pitcher Oene Bearden.
Pacific Coast League players
can be drafted for $15,000, triple
A players for $10,000, double A
players for $7,500 and so on down
to $2,000 for a class D player.
It's rare when a big league club
dips below the triple A leagues
for a player.
SECOND CHOICE
The Pittsburgh Pirates have
second choice in this year's draft
by virtue of their eighth - place
finish in the National League and
then the Baltimore' Orioles are
next in line. The selection contin
ues with the world champion Dodg
ers having the 16th choice, where
upon the process is repeated, be
ginning with the Senators' second
choice.
Some of the choices could be
mighty Ironical. The Pirates, for
example, could obtain a fellow
named Paul Pettlt for $15,000 while
the Cleveland Indians could ac
quire a chap named Billy Joe Da
vidson for $10,000.
Both teams shelled out $100,000
In bonus money a few years back
to take a first look at the pair.
