SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27-tR'- Baseball's grapevine belts this re- port clear across the country to this outfieIder: Bill Veeck has made overtures and now may be negotiating for controlling interest in either the Washington Senators or the Chicago Cubs.
 The source of the report may not be disclosed, but always has been reliable.
 Veeck became baseball's boy wonder while ballyhooing and good willing the Cleveland Indians into one of the best attractions in the majors. Previously he turned in handsome front office job with Milwaukee of the American Asso- citation.
 When Veeck sold the Cleveland club at a fine profit after last sea- son, there was speculation whether he intended to remain out of the sport, or rest up to take another whirl &J it. He demonstrated dynamic ability while operating the Indians.

COMMUNICATION

Editor, Alaska Daily Empire: The city of Juneau has needed a modern library for many years. In this day and age, such an institu- tion ranks high among the necessi- ties of a community; in fact it is almost as important as our public schools.
 As stated in MT. Heintzleman's letter which appeared in your January "A issue, the people of Juneau have an unusual opportun- ity to acquire library at compara- lively little cost to them. The Fed eral Government has stated through the Alaska Public Works Act that they will match us dollar for dollar in the construction of a library building. This means that we can receive grant of $70,000, one-half the estimated cost of the structure. Of course, raising the sum of $70,- 900 through private subscriptions presents the most difficult feature of the project. Even so. it is only one-third as difficult as it was about year ago. As the Library Board pointed out, the sum ot $47,000 has already been subscribed. Much of this was raised by sub stantial subscriptions by local resi- dents but a good share of it came from business houses and other institutions outside the Territory. With the Library being so close to a reality, it should not be diffi- cult to raise the sum of $23,0O0 at this time.
 Every business man has a stake in this matter. There is no ques- ton but that facility such as a good modern putlic library will make for better living in Juneau. This directly effects his business. Every parent should contribute generously if he is to give his child the benefit of an essential feature of his education. It is not too much to say that every resident will reap rich returns on such an investment. sincerely hope that solicitors from the Library Board will receive generous cooperation.
 Sincerely,
 (signeO Dr. William Whitehead
