Writer Claims Grabbing
OF Players Hurts Minors
By BILL PAULSON

R. G. Lynch, sports editor of
"The Milwaukee Journal" told the
House Monopoly subcommittee last
Thursday that the major leagues
are not operating their minor lea
que farm clubs for the good of
the minors or from a competitive
standpoint.
Lynch said major league opera
ton of clubs in lower leagues, par
ticularly their habit of grabbing
off top players when the home
club needed them, was destroying
the confidence of the fans in the
minor league clubs.
He cited two examples. He said
the New York Giants took Out
fielder Willie Mays and Infielder
Hank Thompson from Minneapolis.
Loss of Mays, he said, cut at
tendance 100000 or more, and loss
of Thompson caused the club to
nosedive and finish in the second
division.

DiMoggio Asked To Clear Report
He'll Quit If Yunks Hire Negro

NEW YORK, (GlObaD - Joe
DiMaggio, the Yankee Clipper, or
many years the star attraction on
the New York Yankee baseball
team, is being urged by Harlem
friends to speak out in answer to
the rumor that he has stated flat
ly that, II will quit the Yankees
if the team acquires a Negro
player"
Joe D has been a perennial fav-
orite of thousands of Negroes
throughout the country who have
remained loyal to him and the
Yankees even though the club has
maintained an Indifferent attitude
toward Negro players.
mo one would advocate the de-
liberate break up of any combina-
ton on the team just ito make
room for a Negro" said Garland
Jackson, Chicago business man
here for the World Series. "What
we do object to-" he added ''is the
fact that the Yankees are indif-
ferent to the idea of bringing up
Negro players of the big baseball
yard in the Bronx.
'It is we'll known that the Yanks
have for years been regarded,
and have regarded themselves, as
the 'aristocrats' of baseball, and
their playing field as the Park
Avenue of sports" Jackson said.
"The .aristocrat' often is more
prejudiced than the bigot, even if
from other motives"
AS for DiMaggio, another Chi
cagoan also here for the World
Series, feels that Joe owes it to
himself and the sport he repre-
sents ito clear up the reports.
John D. Chamberlain, sportsman
and head of an investigating firm
in the Windy City, said he had
been an ardent Yankee fan for
years, and that he greatly ad-
mires DiMaggio.
"There is no reason why Di-
Maggie should permit so brilliant
a career to be clouded by rumors
of personal bigotry on his part" )"
Chamberlain said.

IN THE
NATIONS CAPITAL
BY Louis Lautier
II the NNPA News Service

FOr tH0 NNEA NEWS kocINICc
The hearings held by the Senate
Rules Committee on various res
olutions to amend the senate's
existing cloture rule underscores
the necessity of opponents of the
filibuster coming to grip with those
who favor a Willful minority hav-
ing the power to thwart the will of
a majority.
The existing rule provides that
debate may be limited upon any
measure, motion, or other matter
pending before the senate, or the
unfinished business" by a two
thirds vote of the entire senate
membership. This rule requires
that sixty-four senators vote af-
firmatively to shut off debate in
order to break a filibuster.
If this were the only require
ment of the rule, it would be
bad enough. But the "joker" in
the rule is provision which leaves
open to filibuster any proposal to
change any of the senate's rules.
In other words, the rule exenpts
any motion to bring up a resolution
to change the rules from cloture
and permits unlimited debate upon
such a proposal.
This means that the opponents
of civil rights legislation can talk
endlessly to compel the leadership
to abandon any attempt to- change
the rules by completely stopping
the senate from tranSacting any
business whatsoever.
There can be no justification for
rule which permits small min
ority to paralyze legislative body.
Since the present cloture rule
has been in effect, there have been
two attempts to shut off debate
Both were on fair employment
practice legislation. Cloture was
defeated in the. senate May 19,
1850, by a vote of 50 to 80, and
again on July II, 1850, by vote
of 55 to 80.
If rule providing for limitation
of debate by a two-thirds vote of
senators present and voting had
been in effect at the time these
two votes were taken, cloture
would have failed just the same
An analysis of the July II, 1850,
vote shows that only. twenty-five
Democrats and thirsty y-three Re-
publicans voted for 2eroture.
1t ought to be possible to per-
suade nine senators, out of the six
Republicans who voted against clo-
ture and senators who did not vote
at all, to vote to limit debate on
specific civil rights bills. But the
method of persuasion would be a
long-drawn out process, necessi-
tating the breaking of filibuster
on each civil rights measure that
it brought up.
The fact is that the congress
now has so much business that it
is unable to enact "must" bills
within the seven months allotted
to it by the Reorganization Act.
AS a result, the senate leader
ship is unwilling to bring up any
civil rights measure because it
does not want the business of the
senate stopped by filibuster of
two or three weeks duration.

Julian School
Sponsors CornivuI

The annual Julian School Car
nival, P.T.A. participating, will be
held Halloween night, Wednesday,
October 81, at the Julian School.
The Carnival promises to be the
largest ever held at the school.
Some of the attractions will be:
A dance given by the Girl Scouts,
with the Aristocrats Orchestra
playing; bicycle given away;
fish pond, bingo, apple bobbing,
movie, refreshments and favors.
+ The P.T.A. is trying to raise
money to purchase an electric wa
ter fountain for the cafeteria. A
new four-foot steel fence is be-
ing erected around the front of
the Julian School. The fence is
being purchased out of the school
activity fund.
The enrolment at the Julian
and 10th Street Schools is now 566.
This increase has so taxed the fa-
cllitieS of the schools that a tenn
porary classroom has been set I'D
on the auditorium stage. Mrs. Ruth
Littleton is teaching this class,
which is a combination of 3rd
and 4th grades. Mrs. Littleton is
graduate OF Duquesne University,
with Masters Degree from the
University of Southern California.
that they are unalterably opposed
to any change in the rules. These
Southern Senators, twenty-five in
number, have the support of a
small group of senators from small
western states who believe that the
only protection the small states
have in the congress is the right
of senators to filibuster.
If senate rules are to be revised,
the proponents of revision will have
to come to grips with opponents.
The way to break a filibuster
is by engaging in a physical en-
durance contest. The senate can
be kept in around-the-clock ses-
sions with the rules strictly en-
forced. One of the pertinent rules
is that no senator shall speak
more than twice upon any one
question in debate on the same
day. A legislative day runs until
the senate adjourns. A recess on
one calendar day to another does
not affect the legislative day. An
ether rule, the enforcement of
which hampers a filibuster, for
bids a senator to yield to another
senator while speaking, except for
q question.
Now, the proponents of revision
outnumber the opponents better
than two to one. Their average
age also is younger than the aver
age age of the opponents. Several
of the opponents are physically
unable to hold the floor and speak
at tany great length because of
their age.
1t is time now for the Sente to
determine whether the majority or
minority shall decide what bus
mess it may vote upon. :.

Todd Prepares Several Defenses
For Redskin Use Against Giants

II defense will enable the Red-
skins to beat the Giants Sunday
lin New York. Coach Dick Todd
thinks he has the answer. Just
to make sure, though. Todd will
take three or four" defenses to
the big city and will make a few
additional changes In strategy to
help the cause.
First, and most important, the
punting chores may be transferred
from Rookie Billy Cox to Veterans
Bill Dudley or Rob Goode. Cox
has a tendency to kick straight
down the middle, a tendency that
could be fatal If EN- Tunnel, the
Giants feet and elusive safety
man. has a good day. Both Dud-
Hey and Goode do better at punting
the ball out Of bounds beyond
Tunnels reach.
Gilmer Pass Defender.
Defensively. Todd also plans to
use Harry Gilmer to protect
against passes, and hopes to have
at least Ed Quirk. II not AL Demao,
too. to back up the line. Quirk is
working out this week and, while
not upito par. may be able to give
the team hand. Deniao is hop
ing he can play. despite a broken
hand. and may get chance.
Gilmer also may draw the staIt-
ing quarterback assignment, re-
placing Sammy Baugh. who hasn't
completely shaken of the effects
|of a cold. Yesterdays rain forced
Sam to miss practice and he'll take
it easy for the rest Of the week.
Baugh is expected to play. but
Todd would like to 60 as far as
possible without him to have Sam
at his best for the last five games.
Gilmer's foot, injured in the
Browns game at Cleveland when
stepped on by a stray OK" still
bothers him. The trouble is in
the ball of his foot and annoys
him on pivots.
Better Offense Predicted.
Tod looks for a better perform
ance on offense this week and be-
lieves that if the Redskins do as
well against the Giants as they

did against the Bears defensively
they have a chance to win.
Movies Of the Bears game dis
closed a lot of mistakes, too many
for .Todd's peace of mind. But
they also showed that the Bears
had to double-team ON men like
Lou Karras and Paul Lipscomb to
make their running plays work.
And there were times when Kar-
ras refused to bulge. If Todd
could get the same brand of COM
petition from end to end on de-
fense he'd be satisfied.
Meanwhile, the Giants, who
