Sport Talk
By L. F. Chamberlain
The Texas League teams, or-
phaned, so to speak, when the
Big League parents failed to
stick by them through the war-
time crisis have been going to
the block. The breakup of the
loop indicates "hat the farm
system so effective in the past
is ended; and that, more meny
players and executives will be
available for a different kilad
of ‘farm’ activities.

he wasn't cut out to he a fire-

file military strategists will be
gambling with “threatened I Rin-
ger and even thin -upply lines
