Baseball Fann System Probed By Congressmen Washington, Oct. 16.—(UP)— Congressional haseball investigator* focused attention to&ay on the "farm system” for developing big •leaguers and on the Pacific league’s fight for major league statusJ i Leslie M. O’Connor, Pacific league counsel,, was called for daylong questioning by a house monopoly subcommittee. The group is studying organized baseball’s re* quest for exemption from anti-trust < . 4 i Rep. Patrick J. Hillings, R„ Calif., a subcommittee member, said he Wanted to establish clearly the majo*r leagues’ “attitude toward expansion in the public interest” be fore he votes to give baseball “special privilege." Hillings was miffed by testimony yesterday of Olarjc Griffith, Washington Senators’ president Who said the west coast won’t be ready for major league baseball in the near future. Hillings said he wanted to know whether it’s* true that the major ’.leagues in a compromise move last week offered to exempt Pacific league players from their “draft" until they’ve played seven years on the west coast circuit. They now are draftable after four years. The reported compromise, if trite, would* help quell anger of Pacific fans who’ve been unhappy over forced sale of their stars to the big leagues, Hillings said, and would be a first step toward major league, status for the Pacific circuit. | Hillings said, however, that he’ thinks it would be “much better" ‘ id transfer a major league franchise toj San Francisco and Los Angeles than to elevate the Pacific league to a third major league, a move which O’Connor favors. Hillings said the. latter move still wouldn’t bring the New York Yan-‘ kees and the Brooklyn Ilodgers out to the west cdast during the regular seasdn and would be “li|te calling something fried when it’s rfally only fish.” , rThe hpuse< investigators regarded j '(TConnOr as gn expert on the "farm! «Syst» m’ of his work; years’ ago ih drafting for former baseball I ckar Kenesaw M. Landis a 10-polnti plan jfpr eliminating farm clubs. Although he was the most powerful commissioner baseball ever had, hever succeeded in getting owners to eliminate the farm systh,n which he opposed. s . Trade in a Good Town — Decatur jysF ■ K.
