Coordination.
On
Construction

Closer coordination on all pre-
sent and future construction pro-
jects is the goal set by City offic-
ials and contractors to help reduce
the inconvenience to citizens. The
problems caused by large construc-
ton projects were aired at meet
ing of officials and contractors
Thursday. The Indian School pipe
line project and widening of 18th
Street have prompted the most
complaints. Laying of underground
conduit by the Arizona Public Ser
vice Company on downtown streets
also will present a traffic problem.
Members of the City Council, City
administrative officers and con-
tractors agreed that ample time
should be allowed for arranging for
traffic flow before projects are
started, that plans should be care
fully laid for blocking streets and
that citizens should be given ade-
quate notice and an explanation
of the time traffic will be interup-
ted. All of these steps are only a
means of reducing the inconven-
ience, since. the large projects are
necessary to meet the demands of
growth. The coordinated efforts
will involve the City Engineer, the
Traffic Engineer, tbe police traffic
division, the Arizona Public Serv-
ice Company and the contractors.
Contractors agreed they would do
everything possible to spread the
construction work and the City
agreed that it would accept great
er responsibility in the planning ef-
fort.

Business
Roundup

NO0sHOUP
NEW YORK, (GlobaD AS this
is being written, the status Of or
ganized baseball is being decided
in the Supreme Court of the Unit
ed States. The burning question is
whether or not baseball is a sport,
or a business and therefore sub
iect to antitrust laws.
At the completion of round one,
it would seem the most reasonable
arguments have been advanced by
Howard c. Parke, attorney for
George Earl Toolson, the former
pitcher who brought suit against
the New York Yankees, claiming
that he had been deprived of his
means of livelihood since being
placed on the ineligible list by
the Yankees.
Parke argues that organized
baseball has a monopoly on the
$50 million-a-year business, and
that the rules governing player
contracts are made with a view
to protecting this vast business.
Warren S. Sterry, attorney for
the New York Yankees, told the
court that Baseball cannot exist
in an entirely free economy" and
that ito apply to it the full rigors
of the Sherman Antitrust Act
would destroy it."
Just as organized baseball is
coming in for it's share of scrutiny
for alleged monopolistic opera
tions, the Baseball Writer'S Asso-
citation is soon to be faced with
much the same complaint from
Negro newspapers and news
agencies who argue that the As
sociation, irr> having complete jur-
isdiction over the space in the
press boxes at major league
games, exclude weekly papers

ally all Negro newspapers) AL

brought about a slight modifica-
ton in the rules several years
ago, there still exists evidence
that the Baseball Writer'S Associ-
alton operates as "closed shop"
Mr.. Adams said recently: ut is
now apparent that members of
the Baseball Writer'S Association
are going to be compelled to
change their attitude toward Me-
gro newspapers and news agen-
cies. It is all right for them to
be permitted to police the press
box and world series tickets for
the press, but they must be- rea-
listic in the light of present day
demand. For a member of the AS
soci'ation to refuse credentials to
a photographer representing one
of the biggest newspaper chains
and for another to refer to him
as a 'phony' are grounds for, ac-
ton by Ford Frick, and if Frick
cannot handle it, it is a case for
the courts, possibly under the
