| TIME OUT from football for a bit of baseball hot stove league chatter. . , . The little minor leagues are facing a problem and some may not open next year. 3 The national defense program is making inroads in

a big: way on the Class D, C and B circuits and several

shutdowns are likely. The Army draft has already taken many players and by mid< summer of 1942 many more will have been conscripted. . . . In addi- _ tion to! the draft, defense industries have attracted players in the Tittle minors and ‘they are unlikely to give up this lucrative employment for the low salaries in the little baseball loops. y Night ball is sure to be curtailed in some sections of the na“tion and this will be another blow to the smaller leagues. . , . As a patter of fact, even the big minors, like the American Association, International and Pacific Coast Leagues hardly would attempt to rate if night baseball is held to a minimum. £ So far, however, the only baseball section ordered to conserve power is in the Southeastern States. . What the international situation will. be by springis unknown

ghd it’s a safe guess that the delegates to the baseball conventions :

dext fbnth will give a sharp eye to world-wide developments. le oa nse folks are a ‘confident lot, however, and usually begin every sason singing of the glowing future.
