TRADE RUMORS
TOP CONFAB OF.
MINOR MOGULS.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Dec. l..
Baseballs "little world series" ap-
peared to be headed for the junk
heap today.
While the international League
voted in favor of the playoff sys-
TEN to select their representative
for the annual minor league
classic, the American Association
still stood on its protest against
the system.
Unless one or the other backs
water or they can work out a com.
promise, league officials were Of
the opinion the whole thing may
be called off.
The only other outstanding
move of the Internationals was
to reflect President Frank Shaugh-
messy for a term of three years at
a reported salary boost.
RUMORS THICK
But while action was light,
rumors Of big business among the
major league moguls continued to
fly thick and fast on the sidelines
of the minors winter conclave.
The only news in this line thus
far was the sale Of Outfielder
George Stumpf from Kansas City
to ct. Paul, and Eddie Madjeski,
one-time White Sox catcher. was
sold by the New York Giants to
Louisville. Pitcher Dusty Rhodes
went from Baltimore to st. Paul.
Though the Chicago Cubs have
admitted they would like to trade
Bill urges for Arky Vaughan,
smuggling Pittsburgh infielder, their
chances are thin. Pie Traynor,
Pirate manager, declared:
THAT would be a great deal
for the Cubs. They certainly
can't get Vaughan, or at least
not without a lot of induce
mentS."
Willard Hershberger, sensa-
tional young catcher Of the Inter
national League, moved up into
the major leagues today.
REDS MAKE DEAL
The hard hitting 26- year old
player was purchased from the
Newark Bears by the Cincinnati
Reds. In addition to an unnamed
amount of cash the Reds gave up
First Baseman Les Scarsella and
Shortstop Eddie Miller. The Reds
kept a string on Scarsella, but re-
leased Miller outright.

Up in New York, the Giants
have changed their tune.
Two weeks ago, Tim Mara and
his men explained they had no
worries about the final game
against the Redskins. Said Mara:
I'VE aren't worried about the
Redskins. Our only worry is
our game against Green Bay. If
we get by the Packers, we're

Today it's a different matter.
Now the Giants are employing

"HEAvY FAvORITEs"

I'VE stand little or no chance
of winning over the Redskins.
Whereas the Washington team
has a deceptive attack, the
Giants have an .offense that is
JUST plain straightaway football.
While the Giants have been slip
ping in recent weeks, the Red
skins have been coming on in
great fashion. Washington is
an overwhelming favorite to win
over us, which is as it should be,
according to form"
New York newspapers have
fallen in with Mara's scheme to
make the Redskins favorites, and
bear stories are rampant in the

MOUNTON TALKS OF HOME
From the stadium and its advan
tages, the talk turned to Louisiana
and more particularly to the home
gardens of Congressman Mouton
These gardens are his pride. BY
arduous work and great expendi
lures Of money he converted So
acres of open lands into a garden
spot in a romantic country.
He built two great lakes in his
gardens, and three miles Of gravel
roads. He has thousands of rose
bushes; thousands Of azela plants
During Congressman Mouton's
service in France he visited the
famous shrine at Lourdes, and has
a replica on his estate in the
'Cajun country.
He now is finishing one lake
400 feet wide and 800 feet long
There is an island there, and one
day not fa- distant, a statue in
heroic mold of Huey Long will be
unveiled before the residents OF

ANNOUNCEMENTS !:

has been brought to the attention of
the sheriff several times, but he has
maintained that he can never get
enough evidence to warrant an arrest.
Several weeks ago the State Liquor
Control Board sent one of it's under
cover men into the vicinity of this
outfit, with the result that he soon
found out all about its operations and
has obtained enough evidence to
blow the lid off," Chairman Moore
said, although he would not reveal the
name of the county.
In several of the liquor counties,
the control boards have employed out
side detective firms with experienced
operators to make Investigations and
obtain evidence against the bootleg
gers, and excellent results are being
obtained, Moore said
Most of the county control boards
are in complete agreement with the
State control board that in order to
justify the operation of liquor stores,
they must prove to the public that
conditions are better with the stores
than under the old wide-open bootleg
ging SYSTEM" Chairman Moore said.
I'm order to prove this, they must of
course reduce bootlegging to a mini
mum, and most of them are making
every effort to make it impossible for
the bootleggers to continue to exist.
I feel confident that within the next
few months we will be able to make
it harder and harder on the bootleg
gers in the liquor control counties"
For the time being the State il
quor Control Board is too busy trying
to get conditions improved in the con-
troll counties and is without funds to
do any enforcement work in the dry
counties. But there are intimations
that later on the board may make an
effort to extend it's enforcement &C
tivities into some of the wetter "dry"
counties.
