unchanged.

For the first Vime since adoption of the migratory bird treaty act the open seasons apply to all ducks, including the wood duck, ! which last year was hunted legally in 15 states. Ross’ geese are completely protected as formerly, and snow geese may not be taken in states bordering on the Atlantic, in

Idaho, or in some Montana counties.

Cards Fatten Bankroll on Warneke

LONNIE WARNEKE probably was the highest salaried man on the St. Louis Cardinal roster which may have influenced the Oard front office to let him go back to the Chicago Cubs for the waiver price of $7500, declares J. Roy Stockton of the St. Louis Post-

Dispatch.

“When the Arkansas Humming Bird was obtained from the Oubs for Rip Collins and Roy Parmelee, he was given an increase in salary on signing a St. Louis contract,” relates Stockton. o “His salary for 1937, his first year with the Cards, was about

$16,500. He and ‘Ernie. White were

tops on the staff last season,

each with 17 victories, and it is assumed that his contract for the current season called for not less than $15,000. “Thus, by letting him go to the Cubs, the Cardinals make about $15,000 profit, saving half his salary for the year and getting the

waiver price of $7500.

Hee

# 2

“WARNEKE hadn’t been as effective this season as he was last year, but his record of six victories and four defeats was nothing .

the front office could point to as a reason for the release.

The

only defense for the move, rather difficult to defend, by the way, with the club trying desperately to overcome a rather discouraging Brooklyn lead, is that with Warneke out of the picture, the young pitchers on the staff will get more chance to work. © «But if the race were to get close, it might be comforting to have an old war horse like Warneke on hand to hurl a crucial

game or two.”

Landis Clears Negro Status

CHICAGO, July 171 (U. P)— Baseball Commissioner Kenesaw M.

Landis said today that there was no rule against major league clubs hiring Negro baseball players. Landis’ statement was issued, after he had questioned Leo Durocher, manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, about a story in the New York Daily Worker. The story quoted

‘| Durocher as saying he would hire

Negro players if he were permitted. Denies Statement

Durocher was said to have denied making the statement. After the conference Landis said “certain managers” had been quoted as saying that “the reason ‘Negroes are not playing in organized ball is that the commissioner would not permit them to do so.” “I have come to: the conclusion that it is time for me to express myself on this important issue,” Landis said. “Negroes are not barred from organized baseball by the commissioner and never have been during the 21 years I have served as commissioner. “There is no rule in organized baseball prohibiting their participation and never has been to my knowledge. If Durocher, any other manager or all of them, want to sign one or 25 Negro players, it is all right with me. That is the business of the managers and the club owners. The business of the

commissioner is to interpret the rules and enforce them.”
