Resistance to FRick
There was united resistance
among American League club
owners to the ruling hand OF
Prick, who has stated the cir
cult will not be permitted to
invade Los Angeles unless
agreement is reached with the
National League.
It was believed that the
American League would offer
Walter O'Malley, Dodgers own
er, a token payment to get
Prick of the hook with Con-
gress, fans and National League
club owners.
We're committed to 10
teams playing in 1861" said
Joe Cronin, president of the
American League. He said 1t
would be impossible" to OPP
crate as a nine-club league,
tossing out the possibility that
Washington would function on
the field next season If Los
Angeles doesn't.
Cronin exuded confidence
about fielding 10 teams next
season and declared he'd have
more to say on the subject
after today's meeting. He
pointed out that all American
League expansion plans were
based on tricks pronounce
lment that both New York and
Los Angeles were open cities
subject to invasion-and that
his league had proceeded in an
ticipation of Frick'S approval
Vote on Distribution
The American League preSi'
dent said Tricks open cities
declaration was part of the rec
ord of a meeting involving tn
commissioner, Cronin and War
rem Giles, National LeaguI
president. Cronin was avoid
ing controversy, but there wa
no doubt that he plans to f1gh
Prick if necessary to get 1
teams into action next season
Part of the framework wa
laid when some owners an
general managers met yesteI
day and agreed to ask approvs
of a more liberalized plan fo
player distribution among tn
two new clubs. Their recon
mendation will be voted o
today.
The revised system, still sub
ject to change, would call Il

Any Blooming Time

AN AUTUMN" that lasts all year around is
Athe trickery employed by flower growers
to keep the public almost constantly supplied
with potted chrysanthemums.
Working in the growers favor is the fact
that NUNS lack the sensitivity to be able to
tell artificially- controlled light and temper
atures from the real thing AS result, they 60
along sprouting and blooming under the happy
illusion that Autumn is the only season that
ever was.
The big-blossomed products of the green
housemens skill are on prominent display at
the National Capital Flower and Garden Show
in the District National Guard Armory. There
are five major growers of potted chrysanthe-
NUNS in the Washington area.
Their method of tricking the plants is to
control the amount of light that reaches them
at all hours Of day or night. To lengthen the
daylight hours electric lights are used. To
reduce the light period, black cloth is draped
around the inside of the greenhouse. Thus

and the growers want to see those fat blooms
bursting out all over might" begins to fall
progressively earlier for the willing plants.
AircOnditiOning systems, meanwhile, keep
the temperature at falllike 81 to IS degrees
Under this method, the growing cycle extends
from 10 to IL weeks, and plants are blooming
every week of the year in the greenhouses.
Local growers estimate that rs per cent of
their chrysanthemum sales are of potted
plants grown out of (normaD Autumn season.
The bestselling specimens are the big flow

far and away the most popular color about go
per cent of the sales volume. The white blooms
account for about 20 per cent of sales, and the
novelty shades like pink and bronze, the
rest.
Holiday seasons, particularly Easter,
Mothers Day and Christmas, create the biggest
spot demand

We must not lose sight Of the
fact if we want more in

housing facilities to take care
of the extra people who will
settle in your community where
jobs are available. Many
towns are having trouble in
finding living quarters for peo-
pie who move into their COM

One of the first things these
new people will ask is where
they can find a place for their
families to live. If none are
available they will not move in
to your midst. Nc man wants
to be separted from his fam

We talk about an industry en-

Weather
Outlook

The outlook for the MiSsiss-
ippi Delta for Mid-January thr-
ough Mid-February calls for
wet weather with temperatures
near normal. Rainfall is expec-
ted to total around 6 to z in
ches for the next 30 days. Tenn
peratures are expected to av-
erage in the mid SOS in the af-
ternoons with early morning
readings near 30.
The main track of low pres
sure disturbances is expected
to extend from California to
just north of the Mid-South and
then through New England.
Cool high pressure systems will
follow behind the lows. Nor
mally the next 30-day period is
about the coolest of the win
ter in the Mid-South, however
the high pressure systems are
expected to come from the
northwestern states rather
than from Canada and tempera
lures are not forecast to be ex-
treme. Soil temperatures will
average in the 40's or low SOS,
their low point for the year.
Shower periods will occur as
the low pressure disturbances
move past the Delta at 4 to 6
day intervals. Fields will stay
too wet to work for most of the
30 day period.
