possibly it would promote a back.
to-work movement among the
other major leaguers who had
succumbed to the temptation of
excessive Mexican gold.
Trouble was the plan could
work both ways. 1t wouldn't pre-
vent those money-mad ball play
ers from taking a Mexic AWOL,
If offered more dough. They'd
know they could always come
back, since the essence of the
magnates' policy was to entice
them back, not to blacklist them.
For the jittery moment, the
magnates are adopting a get
tough policy and Chandler is
sticking to the Swear exile of
Owen. But it's the hottest hot DO
tato cast the magnates ever
faced. There's always the dread
specter of a law suit from the
Mickey Owens, etc. Also the sim

League "outcasts" who walked

Especially if he can recall dam
aging precedent fashioned by
himself in the past. And there's
not only one precedent but many
that can be presented to judge.
Just 80 years ago, the OUTLAW"
Federal League disbanded. This
upstart outfit had handsomely
raided both major leagues on a
large scale. The Feds grabbed
star players right and left from
them. Not a single law action
was filed by the magnates. And
all of the players returned to "or-
gained" baseball with no ques-
tons asked.

other kind of airing of those en-
barrassing moments.

Fans keep Mexieun
League democratic,
not PdsqueI: Singer

NEW YORK - According to
SpOrtswriter Mike Singer of
the Daily Worker, Millionaire
George Pasquel, president of
the Mexican League, is, at
heart, just that-a millionaire.
Singer, who toured the MeXi-
can circuit in the spring, says
that Pasquel's policy of demo-
cratic playing conditions is de-
termined by the fans, who are
most intoIerant of racial dis
elimination, since the majority
of the crack players are Mexi-
can, Cuban and Negro.
However, the scribe says,
this democracy is not carried
out in PasquePs personal life.
He once ordered q Negro out
of his box at a ball game, be-
cause one of his white guests
objected to his presence, with
a curt, "Hey you, you black
one, get out and go home"
In true capitalist fashion,
Pasquel is always suspicious
when one of his high-priced
American players comes down
with an injury or is otherwise
disabled.
AS Singer puts it, the aver
age us. player who joined the
Mexican League for better pay
is appreciative of the salary,
absence of Jim Crow phobias
and the lofty spirit of the fans,
but a little of undemOcratic,
monopoly-minded George Pas
quel goes a long way.

The major leagues NO. out
cast" who jumped the Mexican
League after a disgraceful exhi-
bition of racism and general dis
agreeableness, can, if he chooses,
lay bare, via legal action, the
whole nasty situation that evolves
around player-management rela-
tons in organized baseball.
A. B. Happy" Chandler, lord
high commissioner of baseball,
has given what amounts to life
sentence to Owen for his "crime"
of jumping to the M x C n
League. This is like condemning
someone to the electric chair for
breaking a neighbours window.
=
OWEN TOOK off from the
Brooklyn Dodgers, unsigned to a
contract, when he couldn't pry a
justified pay hike from the club.
Now 80, he stands suspended for
five years from so-called or
ganized baseball. He's through
with the Mexican League and the
conservative consensus is that
his ball days are over. However,
this is not necessarily so.
Owen can make legal fight,
and likely a good one. Just the
mention of court is enough to
send any magnate to his foxhoIe.

cerned about what and how much
punishment should be given
Owen by Happy Chandler. What
their bewildered skulls would
like to discover is the smartest
political policy to pursue toward
the whole Mexican League prob
lem. What the craftiest move
would be is to discourage their
hirelings from dealing with the
outlaw promoters. Some ace
maneuver that would combine to
lure the Laniers and the rest
back from south of the border.
They've been honeycomhing
their wits for the answer since
Owens break with the Mexicaus.
AS yet the answer has not been
honey-flavored. First, it seemed
practically decided to receive
Owen back with open arms. But
Chandler figured to lose face per-
sonally, since he had previously
roared that Ovens offense call
ed for at least a Swear suspen-
sion.

playing Goliath in a repetition Of
the same drama this year.
The Dodgers-Giants drama, it
will be remembered starred, or
rather ill-starred the Memphis
Wonder, Bill Terry, then manager
of the flag-eyeing Giants. The
cocky Terry sent the Buns a-run-
ming for their little slingshots
when, during an interview with a
sports scribe, he was asked about
Brooklyn's role in the National
League pennant stretch.
At the time, Terry causticaily
answered the query with one of
his own, namely, "Oh, Brooklyn,
are they still in the Lacquer" or
words to that effect.
OF COURSE, it is generally
known now that Memphis Bill be-

Football fans tremb|e in seats
as close games add to tension
BY JERRY WERTHIMER

Bitten fingernails pound the
typewriter keys this week after
two of the most exciting football
games that have been aired in
many year.
You can take your Arrny-Notre
Dame Scoreless ties and your Mi
chigan-Northwestern 14-14 final,
but the games of the year were
played last weekend.
1t didn't take an emotional Bill
Stern or television to excite the
listener of the Army-Navy game
on Saturday or the Cardinal-B Bear
game on Sunday.
THESE CONTESTS were play-
ed on spirit where players seem
ingly gots shots of adrenalen to
usher forth superhuman efforts
on the gridiron.
A Navy team which had lost
every game except one this
year, and won that against Vii.
IanOva by a 10 margin, scored
as many tOuchdowns rs the
number one team of the nation
last Saturday and ended four
yards from ultimate victory
when the gun went off.
Army scared opponents with a
three year straight victory strea,S
and two of the greatest backs
that have totted a pigskin. The
