WAR RATTLES
Texas League PrexY Makes
Prediction : Lands
tentative Plans
BY HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Wide World Features

DALLAS-If the war continues
into 1943 there will be no profess
sional baseball in the nation, says
j. Alvin Gardner, president of the
Texas League-and thus the oppor-
tunity will be offered to put the
game on solid basis before its re-
sumption
Gardner, back from an extensive
trip through the midwest and east,
brought bis endorsement of a plan
advanced by Judge Kenesaw Moun-
tain Lands, high commissioner #
baseball, but not yet formally sub
mitted to the lmen who guide the
leagues.
unless there is marked change
in the war situation, the major
leagues will not operate next veal"
Gardner observed. They wouldn't
be able to get players, because Of
the war drain, and they wouldn't
get the attendance, one of the
principal reasons being the rubber
and automobile tire shortage
Hits Chain Store
The Texas League head took oc =
casion to admit that the optimism
of baseball men that wartime would
bring increased interest in the game
had been misplaced. The view had
been that the people would want
recreation-would want to get away
from their worries.
THE people are not going to see
baseball when the nation is in such
turmoil over war;" Gardner said.
He praised the Lands plan,
which, in effect, would do away
with chain store baseball as prac-
ticed by individual big league CLUBS
and would substitute one big chain
"a subsidized program aimed large
ly at aiding the class B, c and D
leagues.
Under this program the major
and minor leagues would cooperate
in the acquisition, development and
of players, employing
officials and players To
conduct baseball schools, try-out
camps, lecture and movie exhibition
programs, to cooperate with Others
interested in amateur and semi-pyo
ball and in general to have charge
of all matters connected with the
instruction, development and plac-
ing of recruit players.
Subsidies For Clubs
Such players would be placed in
italy in accordance with their APP
parent abilities, giving preference
within classifcatons to clubs in ter
ritory most adjacent to their homes.
The plan includes subsidies to
clubs below A classification such
as $1,000 to class d; $500 to class
c, and $4,000 to class B. After re-
of the subsidy each
club would receive all payments for
sale or draft of player contracts.
This, Gardner said, would give clubs
added incentive to develop players
for higher company.
The subsidy fund would be re-
volving fund ANY deficit would be
made up by the major leagues.
Lands plan would outlaw work.

Gardner says, this would prevent
the growing" of players advance

tenn.
Clubs acquiring players could as
sign their contracts to other clubs,

Commissioners Order
Longer Schedule for
Street Lights
Will Burn Up to Is
Minutes Of Dawn,
Beginning Sunday

Beginning Sunday, street lights in
the District will be turned on IS
minutes after sunset and remain
lighted until IS minutes before sun
RISE. under an order approved late
yesterday by the Commissioners.
The present lighting schedule has
q 45-minute difference between sun
set and sunup, and the change will
mean an added cost to the District
of about 81 200 . year, the city heads
were advised. Walter e. Kern, Dis
trict electrical engineer, said street
lighting funds were sufncient to pay
the increased cost
The action of the Commissioners
was based on complaints they had
received against dark streets eve
nings and mornings, and their an
ttcipated action was predicted In
The Star earlier this week.
In his report, Mr.. Kern told the
city heads:
Complaints are being received
from various sources that street
lights are being extinguished morn
ings when 1t still is dark, under the
present street lighting schedule, and
this actually Is the case.
The ideal time to light and ex-
tinguish public lamps Is Is minutes
after sunset and Is minutes before
sunrise, respectively"
One of the arguments for the
change was that there are many
Government woman workers on the
streets at times when lights now are
unlighted.
