He rode his own mount, Toy Model. 24 games, but he gave, some of. the credit to fine support by local fans. He explained the operation of the seven-team Central Missouri Ban Johnson league, and the organization of the Moberly club and discussed the many ence problems confronting team officials. "Club a Civic Project" Hampton termed the Ban Johnson club "as much, a civic project as a pleasure" and outlined the purpose of the league; "to stimulate interest in baseball and to teach young men to play the game cleanly as well as scientifically, thus exemplifying the ideal of Ban Johnson, former president of the American League." The Moberly manager said he wanted to pay public tribute to "a great ball "We are he said "to the fans in Moberly, the most loyal in the league." "We are also indebted to the Moberly park board and especially to John Groeber (park superintendent) for his wonderful support.

The Monitor-Index, he said, has given the team the best publicity and all-around support of any paper in any town in the league. Explains League Organization Explaining the league setup, Hampton told Rotarians the Ban Johnson circuit is "strictly amateur" for players under 21 years of age. Players may be drawn from a radius o'f-25 miles. Ban Johnson contracts are drawn in much the same manner as major league contracts, he pointed out. "The major difference is that the players receive no compensation," he added.

They tore down the rest. "So we needed a new fence. Why it was our problem I don know. But the park board said it had no funds, so we undertook $2,000 project to erect a new The grandstand is rotting out. Even the boards on which the fans 1 sit are rotting," he pointed out.

"It stands out like a sore thumb, but I said the fence would be my last project. "Rothwell Park's lighting system is the poorest of any in the league, Hampton asserted. "How the boys play so well under such lighting conditions is beyond me. Good Playing Field "The playing field is one of the best in this area," Hampton admitted, "but the lights are something else."

However, when one team wins both halves (as did the Miners this year) there is no playoff. In the latter case an All-Star game is arranged between the champions and members of the six other league teams. The all- stars are chosen by vote of the managers. In Moberly the Veterans of Foreign Wars sponsor the club. The problems of managing and directing a squad of 23 young men.

are many, Hampton agreed. He said it cost "about $2,000" to operate the team throughout the 1948 season, with approximately half the amount going for equipment. "We make all our road trips by bus, mainly to relieve club officials of the responsibility of arranging Defrays Hospital Expense Though the league contract exempts a club from defraying hospital expenses due to injuries, "we like to take care of our boys if at all "Last year," he said, "it took only $30."

Another major problem is dust from the park roads. said he understood the park board voted to oil the road but the city needed an order and the plan never materialized. At present there is no water at the ball park, Hampton expressed hope that the laying of a line to Huntsville would enable the city to run a line to the ball park. He expressed displeasure at the arrangement for getting the field sprinkled to "cut down" the dust. "If the city sprinkler gets out to the park before 4 o'clock it doesn't cost us a thing.

After 4 o'clock it's $1.50 per man. There's no need to tell you when they come. Players Scattered "Another problem this year has been rounding up our players. Two of our.boys are with Bell Telephone company. Jim Dent was at Kirksville early in the season and now is working at Wentzville.

Marv Slavens is in Bowling Green. "We've been driving back-and- fofth for Dent. Slavens has his own car. Such loyalty," Hampton asserted, "is to be commended," The Rotary program was arranged by Ben. A.

Glassen. With Hampton were Club Director Jimmie Johnson, Captain Ed Murry, Gene Kelly, Arthur (Corky) Scheiner and Jesse James, all players, and Stan 1e.

Smith Signs Road Fights Plan For Referendum (Continued From Page 1) shortly begin in most of the counties of Missouri." The bill was passed -without an emergency clause so it goes into effect Oct. 14. But if the referendum petitions are filed before then and accepted by the secretary of state, its operation would be halted automatically at least until after, the 1950 election. Opponents have expressed confidence the voters will turn it down, as they did the Curry constitutional amendment last fall to increase the gas tax to three and a half cents.

As part of their petition campaign, they plan to enlist the aid of all filling stations in the state --about of about 450 automoble club offices. In addition individuals will circulate petitions. The minimum number of signers required is about 55.000-five per cent of the vote for governor in the last election, distributed in nine of the state's 13 congressional districts. Headquarters for the campaign will be at state automobile club offices in St. Louis, where clerical will he handled.

The opponents, describe their campaign as a public service to give people a chance to vote on the tax increase. They have not set a definite goal on the number of names to be obtained. But-Gary Spencer, secretary of the Petroleum Industries-Committee, said he was confident more than 55,000 would be signed.
