BUT OLD a WEATHER DECIDED TO be a
crouch and Unbiased torrents of rain from cold, grey
skies. Attendance has suffered enough that 1t looks
as if the 1861 season will see another decline.
Looking ahead, Richardson probably will be call;
ed upon to help find new homes next year for the
Jersey City and Charleston clubs. Cities mentioned
include Miami, Fla. again. Jacksonville, Fla, Atlanta,
Ga. and others.
But like we said. Richardson is accustomed to
adversely and problems.
He was born to a big family of small means in
WillamSport, Pa, 66 years ago, His hoyho0d was
marked with hard work. AT one time, he held down
three Jobs. Circumstances forced him to quit st.
Joseph'S School after his seventh grade and to seek
full-time employment.
IN n EARLY 1905, he and a brother went into
show business as song-and-dance men, They started
out performing for their supper and 81 a night but
soon they became quite successful.
Richardson joined baSebalps inner circle during
the highly successful days of the Philadelphia
Athletics in 1929-30-3l when he became close friends
with Jimmy FoxX, Al Simmons, Mule Haas and other
players on Connie Macks great teams.
He was elected president of the Eastern League
in 1887 and held that post until he was picked head
Of the International loop last fall. He also served on
the board of directors of the Philadelphia Athletics
until their move to Kansas City.
RICHARDSON SUFFERED A BIG disappointment
In 1854 when he headed a syndicate that raised So
million to purchase the old Philadelphia Athletics. He
was outbid, thereby losing his big chance for a major
league club.
Along with being a veteran baseball executive,
Richardson is one Of the games most gifted speakers
and has earned a reputation for being an outstanding
master of ceremonies.

No Stranger
To AduerSity
By LOU FARRO
Times Sports Editor

Affable Tommy Richardson is no stranger to
adversely or disappointment and perhaps it's a mighty
good thing he isn't. 1t also helps quite a bit that the
dynamic Irishman has a big sense of humor.
AS ~firStyear president of the international Lea
que. he has had his full share of problems-and then
some-and will have to face many more In the I'M
mediate future.
HIS MAJOR PROBLEMS SO FAR include trying
to maintain a workable e~ight-team league and to stem
a continuing decline of attendance. Both problems, as
most fans know. are very much intertWined.
Even as he was elected president of the 78-year-
old league last fall, two big gaps were showing In the
circuit. First the Los Angeles Dodgers pulled out OF
Montreal. Then the owners of the Miami franchise
insisted on moving because of a reported loss OF
500. 900 in 1860.
The Miami team, as you recall, was moved to San
Juan where great things were expected. Instead, the
move proved to be the biggest mistake Of the season
as fans stayed away in droveS. Pressure from the rest
of the league prompted another switcheroo in May
when the San Juan club was transferred to Charleston.
SYRACUSE, MEANWHILE, INHERITED the old
Montreal franchise with Don Labbruzzo, a former Co
lumbuS Jet official, in charge as general manager.
Problems we're piled about as high as the cltys big
SHOWS in the Upstate New York community, when Lab
bruZZo assumed his duties.
The first problem was solved, in a fashion, when
the club worked out an agreement with the Minnesota
Twins organization. Minnesota sent Is players. Of the
original Is, however, Syracuse probably will finish
the season with only one.
Additional help came to the Chiefs as the season
progressed. They received six players from the
Dodgers; three from Washington; two from the New
York Yankees.
BECAUSE THE CHIEFS HAD LITTLE money on
hand, Labbruzzo had to work fast at the start of the
season to raise enough funds to keep the club in
operation. 1t was touch-and-go for awhile, but latest
reports indicated the financial road is much smoother
now.
Then there's the Jersey City club which high

Tom Rodda of Alexandria,
