Team Spirit Makes Russell Big Help to Tulsa
Let Out by Cubs First Socker Becomes Stor Third

Chicago owns half the Tulsa
club. so Business Manager James
T. Gallagher suggested that
Russell go to the Oilers where he
might whip back into shape.
Under baseball rules Russell
could have demanded that he be
sent to class AA instead of a
class A league. But in the spirit
of peration-because Tulsa
needed players-Russell agreed.
Yet, while Russell played a
grand game at first, Tulsa wasn't
getting anywhere. So Chicago
helped by sending Ed Waikus. a
former Tulsa star, back to the
Oilers.
Then problem arose. Watkins
was a fine first bsseman. but
Tulsa needed Russen's punch.

Although the school will attempt
to curtail its program with as lit
