PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 3.-Dl-
rectors of the Interstate Baseball
League are seeking discontinue
ance of broadcasts of major
league games by radio stations in
cities where the minor Circuit
clubs operate.
I'VE feel that major league
teams infringe on our territorial
rights when they broadcast
games over stations in our cities,
said Arthur H. Ehlers, Baltimore,
executive vice president.
Under organized baseball law
no team may operate within 10
miles of another city in organ

HARTFORD, Conn, Feb. g.
Those heels perched on Hart
ford's baseball hot stove these
days are high heels.
They belong to more than 100
women who make up the Lady
Baseball Fans of Hartford, an
organization which has just
elected officers for its second
year and now plans to incor-
porate.
This invasion of the masculine
field started when Charley BlosS-
field (he's from Brooklyn and
ought to know something about
daffiness) decided off -handedly
last winter to throw baseball
dinner and make it stag.
Blossfield, who is business
manager of the Hartford Eastern
League club, certainly didn't ex-
pect the noise that ensued
but it turned out to be tuneful
music-et the Golfers.

Quality Pitching Staff Seen
As Taking Burden Off Reds

regular staff aside-and they'll all
be back this year-Gabe proved his
first point: -.
A small hurting squad that in
cludes only two newcomers does
mean, he said, fewer men to watch,
fewer worries for McKechnie-and
more time for him to devote to the
outfeld and the infleld."
Additions are Monte Pearson, late
of the New York Yankees, and left
handler Bob Logan, from Indian
apolis. Pearson is cinch to stick.
Topped by the old-standby trio OF
Paul Derringer, Bucky Walters
and Gene Thompson, the l941 pitch
ing division is likely to include be-
side Pearson: Whitley Moore, Jim
Turner. Johnny Wander Nicer, Fire
man Joe Beggs and either Johnny
Hutchings or Logan.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 8.-Gabrlel
Paul, suave head of press relations
for the Cincinnati Reds, wasn't kid
ding today when he ventured that
there ARE fewer pitching headaches
ahead for Manager Bill McKechnie
this year than for many a season
past"
Simple inspection of the club
roster proved him right-on two
counts.
An even dozen hurlers, stand-bys
and rockies, are due to report on
Plant Field, Tampa.
That, Gabe pointed out, prob
ably is the smallest number of any
club In the league-both major
