NOT AGAINST NECESSARY MOVES
Veeck Wants Tribe
Kept in Cleveland

Week, who wanted to move
the Browns out of st. Louis
even before the Braves switched
from Boston to Milwaukee, said
he is against moving the Sena-
tors from Washington because
"the national pastime should
remain in the National Capt.
tall"
Four Cities Ready
But he did say cities like
Montreal, Toronto, Houston
and Minneapolis are ready for
major league baseball.
II screamed that Los Ange-
les and San Francisco were
ready 10 years ago." Week
said. "Cities and towns change.
They become-for lack Of a
better word - major league.
Milwaukee, Kansas City and
Baltimore are good examples.
They outgrow their CLASH
flcation as minor leagues. A
good example is Montreal.
where the newspapers would
have major league baseball on
the front page" he continued.
Nov the minor league games
are on page three and major
league results are on the front
page. That's not the doings
of the editor. but that's what
the readers begin demanding. !"

CHICAGO, Aug. 26 (AP).-
Bill Veeck, eager to get back
into baseball, is hot after the
franchise he once operated in
Cleveland in order to keep the
Indians from making any
moves.
However, at q press confer
ence here yesterday, Veeck said
he isn't. against moving fran
chiseS and believes the major
leagues should expand to 10
teams, with Toronto, Montreal,
Houston and Minneapolis as
possible additions.
IF a team must move. 1t
should move" Week said. But
If l took over at Cleveland, I'd
do everything within my power
to keep the team there. Those
people were too good to me to
be deserted"
Faithful Still There
Veeck pointed out that when
he was president of the Indians
they drew 2,62O,627 for a major
league attendance record in
1913. The next year with a
fourth-place club they drew
over % million, and once with
a seventh-place club they drew
over IL million.
Those people must still be
there" Veeck said. Il can't
believe they cannot be brought
back"
Veeck and his associates
made a bid for the Indians last
spring but were turned down.
Cleveland drew only 722,2 56 last
year and probably will finish
with fewer this year.
When rumors circulated that
the Cleveland franchise might
be shifted, Veeck again APP
peared on the scene. 1--WE
didn't make a bid this time, but
that doesn't mean we're not in
terested," he said.
Board Chairman William r.
Daley has stated the Indians
are not for sale. He also has
said he wants to keep the team
in Ohio-if the fans support it.

The expected m Getting OF
Round Table and Gallant Man
September - at Atlantic City
settled down today to conquer
ing the many Ifs" that always
surround a match of cham
pionShip caliber.
The 100000 United Nations
Handicap is the "title fight" OF
the year on the racing front Il
both go postward. From 1t a
horse-of- the-year could emerge
and If Round Table wins q
new all-time money winner
would move a big step closer
to reality.
No one Is worrying about q

both $50 pounds.
Nothing Settled Yet
What happens between now

to this:

Gallant Man was top-weighted
at 1872. with Round Table next
at 1871, along with Swoon's Son.
2. Gallant Man is expected to
start Friday in Belmont Parks

the New York track opens its

the Washington Park event.
8. Round Table probably will

4. II Gallant Man does badly
in the Belmont race, Trainer
John Nerud might decide to
rest him, since he is INFESTED

5. At any time, either could
come up with some malady that
would forbid running in the
United Nations.
The last time the two met
was in the Trenton Handicap
at Garden State Park last No
vember when Bold Ruler, since
retired, won and took 1857
horse-of-the-year honors. Gal
liant Man was second and
Round Table third.

at breaking Nashua's all-time
