War Trend May Bring
Texas Loop Revival
By the Associated Press.

DALLAS, June 20.-The invasion
of Europe means there will be more
manpower for sports and that the
Texas League will operate next year,
President J. Alvin Gardner believes.
1--WE will resume operations next
year and you can bet your socks on
that" said Gardner today. In the
first place, the country is going to
be in such good shape in this war
by next season that there will be no
reason for staying out.
In the second place, there will be
plenty of players from among the
men who have been or will be sent
back by the armed forces, men with
defects that will make it inadvise-
able to keep them in the Army, but
men still able to play baseball in
top style"
Gardner said the Texas League
would have operated this year had
the invasion started in January,
February or March.
All We needed was to show what
we could do, give the people con-
fidence in their Army and show
we're going to win this war" he
declared.
