GOING 10 SENATOR'S, HARRIS SAYS COAST IS JUST SMALL TIME

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21. -R- Bucky Harris tossed cold water to- day on those Pacific Coast baseball fans who claim their league de- serves to rank with the majors.
 The Coast League is a good min or league the leather-faced vet eran said. Its just what it's rated "a triple-A circuit and no more"
 Bluntly, he added Its certainly not the majors"
 The 52-year-old managers action in signing a three-year pact to pilot the American Leagues eighth place Washington Sena,ors was it. self something of d reflection on Coast League baseball.
 Harris gave up one of the test jobs in the minors to take over what may be the worst in the majors
 With a nice salary as manager of the PSL's San Diego Padres, he also had a live club that was rcgu- larly stocked with talent by the parental Cleveland Indians.
 With the Senators-a team that lost over 100 games this past sea- son-Bucky is saddled with an in- ept squad
 For the past few years various Coast League owners have been fighting to have their circuit recog- nized on a par with American and National Leagues. Their pleas have met continual silence. No doubt Bucky hasn't helped their cause.

Along with this population

racism in America that Is danger
