Views Crisis
With Apathy

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina,
Aug. 11-Headlines scream
crisis, competing generals hurl
threats of war at one another,
the president Of the republic
pleads for tranquility via tele-
vision-and this ramshackle
capital goes peacefully about
its weekend business.
For civilians, the greatest
hardship of the crisis so far
is cancellation of the horse
races usually held rain or
shine. Commuters on the way
to the city center also duck
around improvised tank bar
ricades thrown across the main
arteries.
Foreign exchange houses are
closed for the weekend, so the
full impact Of the latest out
burst from military leaders Is
yet to be felt in the plunging
value Of the Argentine Peso.
Since the generals and the
admirals ouSted President Ar
turo Frondizi last March, civil
ians have become used to the
political game Of the military.
They control the fragile sue
cessor government of President
Jose Maria Guido.
"It's fun, isn't it?" smiled a
young politician between tele-
phone calls to keep up with the
military maneuvers. Four

BY FRANCIS STANN

Time is fast running out

manager and Ed Doherty as
general manager Of the Sem
ators, 1t was disclosed this
week end by Elwood r. (Pete)
Quesada, president of the base
ball club.
mo one should be surprised
that we. the Senator'S, natural
ly are considering some changes
in the management, particu-
larly as concerns the manager
and general manager" Que
sada volunteered.
The goals that were set when
the retired Air Force general
and nine partners acquired the
Washington franchise in the
American League expansion on
November IL. 1860, have not
been achieved. Quesada indi-
Gated.
Changes Dictated
Prudent thought dictates
some major changes in the or
ganization," he said. "If I did
not give thought to the prob
lens that confront us, the di-
rectors Of the Senators should
give thought to removing me
as president.
"And I'm sure they would"
Quesada added.
The Senators president was
disappointed after the team |
shared the cellar with the Kan
sas City Athletics last year and
he Is dismayed by the perform
aIlce Of the club this season. |
Quesada admittedly is envious
Of the progress made by the
Los Angeles Angels. who are
doggedly fighting for second
place after having led the
league for o brief period.
Replacing Vernon and Do
herty Is one of the hardest
problems I've faced" Quesada
stressed. I'VE have an excellent
personal relationship, but II
can't afford blind loyalty. It's
q problem ! must face"
Lists Job Candidates
The Senators boss admitted
that for some time he has been
compiling o list Of possible |
candidates for these two jobs
but has interviewed only one
applicant to date. ''This was
the former owner and general
manager Of Q Triple-A team in
the American Association, who
applied for Doherty's position"
he disclosed. II wouldn't say
the interview was satisfactory"
Quesada said that so far he
has listed the names of about
10 possible general managers
and the same number Of field
managers.
But I'm not even close to
making q decision" he said.
Although Quesada said that
he has talked to Doherty on
the subject. he said he had not
spoken to Vernon regarding
plans for the future. But he re-
peated, mo one should be sur
prised when and If we make
the changes"
Wants to Shift Vernon
He would like to retain Ver-
non in the Senators organiza-
tions, Quesada said, adding:
But I don't know If Mickey
would be agreeable"
AS for printed reports that
Quesada is thinking of taking
over the general managershipI
himself, as well as serving as
president, he said:
That's a ridiculous report.
It's utter nonsense"
