Texas Manager
Fakes Rhubarbs
To Please Fans
AUSTIN, Tex.? Hank Oana, the
big aiian who now manages
Austin of the Big State League,
seldom permits a ball same tP*be
come draggy.
Oana. who came into the Texas
League years ago as an outfielder,
was shifted to the pitching mound
with the result that he went to the
big'leagues.
Hank gained tame on the West
Coast when someone put out a
story that he was a Hawaiian
prince. He wasn't, but it was too
good to deny. So he said nothing
and became quite a drawing card
in the Pacific toast l^fcuue.
Oana was with Detroit during
the war, came back to the Texas
League and led the circuit in
pitching with Dallas one season.
Then he became manager at Aus
tin and has been quite success
ful ' ? 1
Here s a sample of how big
Hank keeps the fans interested:
Austin was playing Texarkana
and was behind, 10-2. It was one
of those nights when Austin could
n't do anything right. The fans got
bored. Some showed their displea
sure by walking out of the pu(k
Hank had an inspiration. When
the base umpire called a close one
against the Pioneers (not too close
but enough for Oana's purpose), he
rushed out to the arbiter and shook
his finger in his face.
Oana thrust his face up close,
frowned and waved his arms. The
umpire shook his own finger under
Hank's nose. The fans quit walk
ing out and started cheering the
Austin manager, meanwhile booing
the umpire.
But what Oana said to the um
pire while waving his arms wildly
was this:
"I'm gonna buy you a dinner af
ter the game."
What the umpire replied was:
"I'm gonna take you up on that "
A few minutes later llauk
charged out lo "protest" vigor
ously once more, the fans cheer
ing him on. Itut here's what he
said:
"You gonna eat dinner with me?,,
The "infuriated" umpire jerked
off his cap, bared his teeth. Hank
waved some more. The umpire
rilsed himself on his toes, pointed
in the direction of the Austin dress
ing room.

By CYNTHIA 1.0 WRY
AP Newsfeatures Writer
For generations. American wom
en have none in mildly for sports,
but the ballpark was pretty much |
a uific preserve. r
Between television and the of
forts of the baseball people them
selves after all. they thought |
up things like Ladies' Day" ? it |
seems that large numl>ers of wom
en are turning into avid sports
watchers.
It's a movement, not confined
entirely to baseball, and I think
that men are going to regret they
ever let women loose in stadia,
| rinks and parks. Male s|XX1s fans
are bad enough. Hut women are
extremists, and if they take up
sport swat ching I can see nothing
but more trouble ahead lor the
(ireat American Home.
I know* more than a dozen wom
en who have been wooed and won)
by sportswatching. A gray haired ;
and dignified matron of ms ae
quaintance knows more about box
ing and obscure rules than Jack
Dempsev. This interest bftgun
shortly after a television set was
installed. Now her husband has to
take her to any of the big fights
that happen to be scheduled in her
vicinity. This is costly, and also
unsatisfactory because her hus
band would much rather go to
hockey games. .
I also know a young mot bet- who
has been infected by the baseball
virus and during the season does
her ironing in the afternoon while
listening to the excited voices of
sports announcers from some park
said. "I'll cnange and meet you in
a few minutes Let's eat at Joe's
Place."
or other. In rne old days she used
to iron to soap opera, so pretty
soon we may see manufacturers of
soap, lipsticks, girdles and fiti7en
foods taking over the sports field !
now occupied by beer, tobacco and I
razor blade sponsors.
The march of the women into '
the nation's ballparks is greater
than I thought. For I have receiv
ed this day a little pamphlet from
the American Red Cross, ho less,
instructing women how to act while
attending a baseball game. Il is a
combined etiquette and safety bro
chure. urging, first, that women be
ladies, no matter what the provo
cation. Secondly, it suggests they
watch their blood pressure.
Of couise. the booklet does come
from the Brooklyn Chapter of the
Red Cross, and if I understand
correctly, people 111 Brooklyn get
more excited about baseball they
have a team called the Dodgers
I ban any other people in the Unit
| ed States get excited about any
i thing. Still, it is an indication of
what's happening when it is nee
e-wary to instruct people how to
wat<^h a ?ime. Among the Red
Cross tips on conduct are advice
to weai comfortable, loose cloth
ing. low -heeled shoes, no hat-pins
and to avoid getting into a phy
sical battle with someone who dis
agree*: with them. It is all right,
says the Red < ross, to yell a lady's
head off, provided the lady sits as
still as possible ?

This ridiculous strike is an affront to every
citizen of the nation. It's not for more money.
It's not because of hours. It's only for soft
feather-bedding spots for additional unneces
sary firemen to go along in diesel locomotives just
for the ride. A leading liberal newspaper calls the
demands of the union leaders' horse-feathers"!
? The reckl?s leaders of the firemen's
union want to force down the throats
of the railroads and the public a ridic
ulous "make-work" proposal which has
been twice ruled out by Presidential
Fact Finding Boards duly appointed
under the provisions of th* Railway
Labor'Act.
This demand of union leaders for
additional and unnecessary firemen to
ride in dieeel locomotives was rejected
? after monthsofhearings? bya Board
appointed by President Roosevelt in
1943.
It was again rejected in 1949 by a
Board appointed by President Truman.
. -Reont meetings with the National
Mediation Board have brought no
change in the attitude of the union
dictators.
Union Leaden Defy Intent of Uv
The union leaders helped write the
1 Railway Labor Act. Yet in an attempt
to Jan through this scheme of pure
"feather-bedding" by leading the mem
bers of their uniog out on strike and
threatening paralysis to Mtge areas of
the nation, they are defying the spirit
and intent of the very law which they
helped to create.
This strike is not for higher wages.
It is a strike to force the railroads to
employ many more thousands of fire
men who are not needed! It would he
indefensible waste. The railroads have
refused to place this additional and
unnecessary burden on the public.
But more important than any other
consideration, is the action of these
few irresponsible union leaders in seek
ing to force a crippling strike upon the
? This strike is one of the
silliest strikes in history I
What are them* reckless union leaders
trying to do? They seek to cause thou
Handa of their members to strike, and
throw hundreds of thousands of other
employes on and off the railroada out of
employment, with loaa of pay to them
and Ityeir families, plus a severe |0uw to
industry and the citizens of tin* nation.
What's the strike all about? If the
union has its way ? what happens? The
present members of the union won't
Ket one cent nWfre pay. They will merely
have been assessed for a costly and in
detensiMudrivc in anattempt to provide
moreduet^paying members for the union
by creating "feather-bedding" jobs for
additional and unnecessary firemen.
This is certainly one of the nilliest
strikes in history!
nation for their own Bel fish purposes.
There is no other possible answer to
such a demand but "No!"
The railroads in making such a reply
believe they have the whole-hearted
support of the people in whose interest
they are willing to fight this out, de
spite the losb and inconvenience that
all will suffer.
It is time to put an end to such un
American demands.
We an publishing thia and other advertisements to talk to you
at first hand about matters which an important to everybody.
