Crippled Dallas Steers In Texas League Cellar
B
ASEBALL scouts are complain-
ing from the house tops about
the scarcity of future baseball ma-
terial. due to a decided slump in
amateur and semi-pro diamond ac-
tivities, as well as the poor material
found in the bush leagues. Its a cer-
tainty that unless these sources of
baseball material keep functioning,
it will be only a matter of time until
there will be a reail dearth in big
league material. Despite a world of
‘natural ability, any ambitious ball
player must have experienced before
going to the big boys and this all es-
sential training can be had only in
amatrur'and semi-pro outfits.
i rollegrt was as important as
football and the two sports drew
equally as large gates. > Today,
most of the smaller colleges have
dropped baseball from the ral-.
endar and little interest Is held
in the sport by trams represent-
ing the larger universities: Many
