10 Minor Loops
Seem Sure, Il
Most Likely
Texas Only Group
Uncertoin; AllMust
Decide by March I
BY JUDSON BAILEY.
Assoeiated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Tl1is Is the
month in which the Nations minor
leagues must decide whether or not
they viii undertake to play ball this
season and checkup today showed
that approximately Z dozen are
likely to open.
The deadline for their decisions
Is March !, when guarantees must
be posted with the National Asso-
citation Of Professional Baseball
Leagues and to this end several
league meetings are scheduled dur
ing the next two or three weeks.
|g At present al Of the top minors,
"A" classification. or better, seem
certain to start With the possible
exception Of the Texas League, and
the. outlook for this circuit has,
seemed more optimistic In recent
days.
It In Action Before War.
Before the war struck sports there
were Al minor leagues. A year ago
81 started and Is finished their
season. This shrinkage is, continu-
ing, of course, but thus far has
shown no signs Of reaching the van
khing point Of 1918 when only the
international League, Of ali the
minors, was able to play complete
schedule.
Future Government regulations
concerning nnanpower and travel
may crush the hopes Of many Of
the doubtful leagues, but for the
present baseball leaders are playing
out their string.
Only six leagues thus far have
given up all hopes Of operating.
They are the Western Association,
Mountain State, Northern and vir-
ginia In the Glass &C" bracket and
the Georgia Florida and Bi-State in
Glass ID"
Appear Certain to Start.
Leagues that are believed certain
to start are the International Asso-
citation and Pacific Coast, in Class
"AA"; Southern Association, in
Glass ZAP; Eastern, In Glass. "C"::
Interstate and Piedmont, in Glass
"B"; Canadian-American, In Glass
&C." and the Pony and Wisconsin
State Leagues In Glass ID"
That is 10 for a nucleus and two
or more OF the remaining eight
doubtful loops are almost sure to
attempt to operate.
The Texas will meet at Shreve-
port February 13 and IA for de-
clsion. Dallas, Beaumont and Okla
homa City are understood to be
facing difficulties. One possibility
is that the league might 60 with
fewer than eight members.
In. class 'B" the South Atlantic,
Southeastern, Tl1ree-I and Westefl1
International Ill are considered
likely 10 fold, although the South
Atlantic, QunnnOsalT known - Sally,
may reduce ~ 1nemberslaip ana

Lesser LsspssArs Hopeful.
The Pioneer League, class &C. =
also still Is hopeful and in class

North Carolina State Leagues are
hoping to continue.
AZ far Is Is known, most OF the
leagues that operate will continue
with much the aame makeup "a

completed at meeting set for New

SIDNEY r.
Highway Commissioner

The people of the First or Central District of
Mississippi have a large investment in modern
highways. For the duration of the war no new
roads can be built except those deemed essential
by the War Department. However, necessary re-
pairs can be made to existing highways if the
money is available.
Maintenance of Mississippi highways depends
on revenue from the gasoline tax. Gasoline ration
ing has greatly reduced the income from this
source.
Sidney Roebuck helped build our modern high
way system. We got more for our highway dollars
Submitted to and appro

than any other state in the nation.
Sidney Roebuck, for more than two years has,
by efficient management and the reduction of ex-
penditures and personnel, helped build up a re-
serve fund for highway maintenance. He will see
to it that our investment in highways is fully
protected.
Reflect Roebuck on August Bird and make sure
our good roads will still be good when we have
plenty of gasoline again! Make sure that Roe
bucks sound farm-to-market road plan becomes a
reality! Make sure the Highway Department cor
tinues to serve you as a business organizatic
rather than as a political machine.
