.AII-Rookie LEAGUE
Is Suggested for
HuqerstoWn Area

| CHAMBERSBURG, Pa, April
4 tP.-A new concept designed
to reduce the ever-increasing
burden of expenses in minor
league baseball was outlined to
Chambersburg borough officials
last night.
Rufus Edwards. general mana
ger of the HagerstoWn team in the
now-defunct Piedmont League,
proposed organization of a
Glass d. league composed of two
teams from each of three cities.
Edwards explained he had been
contacted by representatives of
several major league clubs to at
tempt setting up league con-
sisting of Chambersburg and
Hagerstown and Frederick. Md.
/ The idea behind the whole
thing. Edwards said, is to cut
down on hotel and travelling ex-
penses. The three cities are
within so miles of each other.
! Each city would have two
teams in the six-squad league
composed of college and bonus
players. all rockies. No former
minor and major league players
would be allowed to compete.
Edwards said the major league
teams interested in sponsoring
squads in the proposed league
are the Senators. Phillies. Orioles
Cardinals, Yankees and either
the Tigers or Red Sox.
! A proposal for a six-team, all
rookie league also is under con-
sideration on Maryland's Eastern

Caffeine was found in a routine

a McGee-trained horse, after it

banned horses owned by MCGEE
or his wife from racing in Mary
land for six months.
The Holmdel. N. j., horseman
and his wife asked the Supreme
bench of Baltimore to declare
the commissions suspensions
void.
At a hearing last week, the
commission acknowledged that
1t had no evidence to show
MCGEE administered caffeine OF
permitted any one else to do it
But it suspended the trainer
on the ground he was respon-
sible for the guarding of the
horse to prevent the administra-
ton of such drugs"
MCGEE said in his petition to
the court that the ruling is
tantamount to making the train
Ier "guarantor against the pres
ence of a drug in a horse"
He said he took reasonable
precautions TO guard his horses
by having a night Waterman
