Graham’s Vision Editor’s Note: For two years The Star has protested against the selling of players by the Seattle club in mid-season, twice breaking up the local team and twice beating the Indians out of a fine chance to win the pennant. The following edi- torial from the St. Louis Sporting News, the leading baseball publication in the country, that is constantly in touch with the basebal! pulse, speaks for itself: While the Class’ AA fellows rejected the draft, their argument was that they desired to hold their stars and | build up their teams to a quality equal to that of the to| majors, With the draft on them they were forced to sell their best prospects, for they'd lose them by draft if they didn’t. And here we find a movement in the Pacific Coast league | for a rule to prevent a club owner selling a star—during the jseason. Evidently some individual club owners do not get ithe idea as it was advanced by their leagues when opposi- {tion to the draft was voiced. | | Billy Klepper is accused of accepting money paid for | his stars without regard for the interest of his club or | his league and in violation of the announced intention, | to keep the quality up. | In the Coast league they thus complain when a magnate sells his stars, and in the International they complain be- cause a magnate won't sell his and break up a team that lis too good for the rest of the league, In the other Class AA league—the association—they javer they don’t Sell or trade unless they can jip a boob jment. That's Billy Klepper’s alibi, incidentally, when he answers the objections of fellow magnates to his system. It may not be possible to enact a rule that will pre- vent a club owner in the Pacific Coast league selling a star player, any more than it would be possible to enact a law for the International league to compel a club man- nate to sell one or several—yet it does seem that if the class AA leagues are honest in their stand they should insist that a principle be recognized in all deals made for players—that such deals are to strengthen clubs on the field, not in the cash box. Tn the Coast league controversy we are sentimentally with |Charley Graham when he seeks to prevent any club owner pulling the bush stuff of selling a star. Graham's’ vision 1s a Coast league keeping pace with the territory it serves; eration of boys now breaking into baseball will make the Atlantic seaboard look like a back yard and the Mississippi valley only a truck patch. Graham is the true “native son,” and the “Slope,” baseballically and otherwise, should be sympathetic. It is no surprise that Charley Graham is the man who makes this his stand; there is no greater mind in base- ball, which means there is no man in the nation with a truer sense of things that are to be. We may seem like a lot of muddlers in baseball, but we work toward the goal pretty well at that, tho we may have our Kleppers and our International magnates who would pull down Jack Dunn to a class B level. : And that wasn’t such a fanciful idea—of Los Angeles bidding against New York for a Hornsby one of .these days, ie Hornsby himself has shown the Coast this fall how very far as yet baseball as the Coast knows it is behind what is for the present the “big show.” | IF COAST LEAGUE MAGNATES HAVE ANY VISION, |THEY MUST TAKE THE GRAHAM VIEW OF IT, AS GAINST THAT OF BILLY KLEPPER. OTHERWISE THEY ARE NOT REAL SONS OF THE WEST, TRUE TO THEIR TRUST, AND THE GROWING MILLIONS THEY SERVE SOON WILL FIND THEM OUT. 17th Team Enters Star League; To Meet Next Week The entry of the 17th team in The Star Junior basketball ue was filed Saturday, but didn't reach the sporting editor's desk until late Monday.
