r OUISVILLE, KY, January
1.-THE manufacturers of
l. base ball equipment do not
believe the proposed cen
trail buying agency" will bring
much aid to minor league base
ball purses.
Base balls Committee of five"
with power to systematic the af-
fairs of the smaller leagues so that
the annual deficit will fade, heard
representatives of the five largest
equipment manufacturers on the
cooperative buying idea here yes
terday
The plan for pool purchasing" one
of the many the committee has before
it, was deemed impraCticable by the
equipment men, who suggested that the
saving effected would not justify the
engendering of the i'll will of home
town merchants
Each city with a minor league base
ball team, the equipment men pointed
out, has sporting goods store, and II
the club does not patronize the home
town merchant, it cannot expect pat
ronage and support from the home
town merchant.
The committee listened to all sugges-
tions but made no decision. 1t went
about its tasks with an open mind and
planned to continue to assemble data
upon which it will base report to the
National Association Of Minor League
Professional Clubs.
Yesterdays session was the first Of
series to be held throughout the country.
An important item of today's calendar
was the question of employing full
time organizer to form new minor
leagues The number of small leagues
has dwindled considerably within the
last few years, and it was regarded as
probable that the committee would take
some steps today to Offset the decline.
Although club owners had been asked
to name their choice for the organizer
position, no one was dominated and it
was regarded as near certainty that
Joe Carr, former president of the Co.
lumbuS club Of the American ASsocia-
ton and member of the committee of

IL stakes, with one exception,
has flashed to the front
only on the final night of this
classic, and this current Stakes,
which will be continued next Sat-
urday at the Rendezvous, Is not
likely to be different. ,.
A set of 500 on the first night is sure
to give the bowler chance in any
sweepstakes and this Campbell classic
Is no different. There were 16 sets of
900 or better rolled and each shooter
must be considered a potential winner,
Louis Pantos' surprising 666 has failed
to throw much of a damper on the
hopes Of the other 40 aspirants for the
reason that Pantos is not the most con-
sistent bowler in the world and may
suddenly lose his touch" =
nLLIE PACINI was established the
~ outstanding favorite before the
event started and today remains
the choice of the majority of bowling
fans. Pacini rolled good duckpins to
ge< his 626. a
Nhe opening block was productive of
several surprises, the biggests of course,
being the performance of Pantos How
ever. the work of Paul Brill and Jimmie
Burns, neither highly regarded, was
commendable, Burns, rolling on the
same drives with Red Morgan, MaMe
Rosenberg and Howard Campbell the
first two rated favorites stole the show
when he started with strings of 1872, i35
and 127 for 394 but his pace told on
him and he dropped, in his last two
strings, much closer to his average with
l03 and lot. a
HOW much more light on the winner

Saturdays block at the Rendezvous
Is hard to foresee, unless someone in
the first 16 steps out with a 7O0-or-
better set. But 100" sets aren't COM
mon in these days despite the high
cutters and it appears to be anybody's
race among the first 16. Jack Whalen,
with an even 600, is sixteenth, exactly
66 pins behind the leader, Pantos, and
