Agitation continues for a cage
contest between the Lincoln Air
Base Raiders and an All-Star
team composed of the top play
ers from the various Army intra
mural clubs on the campus.
The suggestion seems to have
the hearty approval of all train
ees, who feel it is only fair that
the Raiders, who represent the
pick of the entire permanent per
sonnel of the Air Base, be opposed
by the best team that can possibly
be assembled from all the campus
Army units. The Raiders, one of
the top teams in this section of the
country, have been consistently
romping over the best clubs that
each individual unit can offer, but
they would have a rough time dis
posing of an all-star team com
posed of such stand-outs at Dobier.

Scheer and Fuller of Company B,
and Harris of the Air Corps.
This department sincerely
hopes that the proper authorities

ment and at the .Air Base take
this proposal under serious con
sideration. The game looks like
a natural, and fans would flock
to see the two star-laden teams
play.
Alva Bradley, president of the
Cleveland Indians, stirred up quite
" ' " i',"' wpek with his gloomy
assertion that he would rather see
... ..-0ue oase ball suspend than
resort to a "low form of comedy"
because of the man-power short
age. '
Owners and presidents of other
major league clubs jumped to the
defense and declared that baseball
definitely can continue this season
without any "low comedy." Some
of Bradley's more outspoken critics
even hinted that baseball can con
tinue "without the Indians."
Looking at the situation from
a purely impartial point of view,
it sems safe to say that major
league ball will have a realty
rough time surviving the coming
season. Clubs may not be forced
to resort to "low comedy," but
it's certain that a great many
outfits will be scraping the bot
tom of the man-power barrel
before World Series time next
fall.
