Washington, D.

 The Association, Sunday sent Q letter to President Hoover urg- ing him to halt pending nego- tiations for the sale of national forest timber in Alaska on the ground that pulp production there would thrust unwarrant- ed products upon an over eX- banded industry struggling with diminishing demand and van ishing products

Washington, Dec. 31.-(AP)-Afte,
years OF search the Washington base
ball club believes it has found the
right hand hitting outfielder whose
clouting will mean the difference be-
tween a pennant winner and just a
good spring contender.
He is Carl Reynolds, late with the
White Sox. From indications, he will
be the only change in the Nations
lineup when Manager Walter john
son hands it to the umpire on open
ing day.
In exchange for Reynolds and john
ny Kerr, infielder, the Washington
club gave two veteran pitchers, Ir-
wing Hadley and Sad Sam Jones,
and threw in Jack Hayes, infielder.
Reynolds assignment to right field
will mean the benching of Sam Rice,
long an outstanding star with Wash
ington.
Heinie Manush is regarded as a fix
ture in left and there are few better
hitting and fielding gardeners than
Sam West.
One infield position Is unsettled.
Johnson has said Joe Judge, veteran
first baseman, and Joe Kuhel, who
had the job most of last year after
Judge was stricken with appendicitis,
will fight it out.
There is little chance that Kerr will
supplant Buddy Myer, who developed
into one Of the leagues best second
basemen last year. The x-Chicago
infielder will probably do infield util-
ity duty.
Joe Cronin wasn't as sensational
last year as he was the year before,
but he IS still the best shortstop in
the American league. Dependable
Ossie Bluege, at third, apparently has
nothing to fear.
To take the places of Hadley and
Jones, the club Is depending upon
