Josephson scored when Asheville's Chuck Leonard grounded into a force play. The Stars had an opportunity to pick up some more in that inning, but Knoxville' Gerry Reimer popped to the infield and Asheville's Bob Oliver, pinch-hitting for Brunsberg, sent Whitaker to the fence to pull down his long fly. Columbus never threatened again after the fourth as Birmingham's Vill Linder, Montgomery's Fritz Fisher, and Chattanooga's Bill Wilson took to score on the wild pitch, got Felix Sanlana of Asheville to ground out.

Southern League directors and President Sam Smith, meeting here prior to the annual All-Star baseball game, took a worried look at the Southern League operation so far this year, and all agreed that something must be done to revive interest in the AA loop as well as minor league baseball in general. W.

Fleming Talman, president of the ville Tourist, is a fellow who is outspoken about the fact that something has to be done to help baseball. "Our individual cities are part to blame and the other blame rests in the majors' operations and the office cf the minor league commissioner and the loop presidents. "The minor loop heads have done very little to help boost the interest in baseball. They should hire a full time promotional man and start a public relations program-one that this country has never seen before. The majors give you a working agreement and that's it.

You take it from there. You are lucky if you get a good baseball club. As far as the majors' helping by playing exhibitions in the various towns or sending their big name players for appearancesthey just don't. 'The Southern League is one of the most important leagues in the minor league operations, yet the minor league office is not represented here at our All-Star game," said Talman. There were a lot of ideas exchanged during the loop session with just about everybody throwing in a few suggestions or criticisms.

Montgomery President Earnest O'Connor suggested that the Southern League take the problem by the horns and launch an all-out campaign to stimulate minor league baseball. "They tell us that we are an important part of the major league operation. Then let's do something to revolutionize baseball and demand that the majors go all out with their cooperation. It's just as much their problem as it is ours," said O'Connor. The Southern League All-Star team is composed of many bright young stars who will be heard from later in the majors.

There are a few who are outstanding performers in AA baseball but will never go any higher in baseball. Several of the stars have had brief trials in the majors already. Anyway, it takes all kinds of performers to make an All-Star team. The average age of the 20 players selected for the game is 24'i years. Charlotte's Tom Umphlett, a former Red Sox and Senator outfielder, is the oldest on the squad.

He's 34. The youngest is Montgomery's Wayne Comer, who is 21. Minnie Mendoza, Charlotte shortstop, 30, and Umphlett are the two old men on the team. We were curious to know what these stars did in the off season, and after a little questioning we found that Duane Josephson, Lynchburg catcher (23), Asheville outfielder Bob Oliver (22), Lynchburg outfielder Bill Voss (22), Montgomery's Comer (21), Birmingham's Bill Linder (24), Asheville pitcher Bill Walker (22), and Chattanooga's Bill Wilson (22) are still attending college in off-season. All-Star manager Pete Peterson is a graduate of Rutgers University where he went to college on a baseball scholarship.

He had four years as a catcher with Pittsburgh and is a substitute school teacher in the winter. Pitcher Chuck Holle (25) of Charlotte, a Purdue graduate, is a pharmacist; Pitcher Asa Small (23) of Asheville is in the lumber business; Jose Lizondre, Lynchburg pitcher (25), sells automobiles, Don Bosch (23), Asheville outfielder, and Dick Kennedy (29), Knoxville, are in the insurance business. Second baseman Felix Santana (23) of Asheville, Mendosa, and Umphlett play winter baseball. BASEBALL CHIT-CHAT There's talk of new teams in the Southern next year. Huntsvllle, Macon and Mobile are names heard in the conversation Albert Belser has offered the Birmingham Barons for sale, but loop heads are convinced that Kansas City mogul Charlie Finley will see to it that Birmingham remains in the league.

There's talk that Lynchburg, may shift to the Carolina League to shorten the distance of trips in the Southern, and that Charlotte may take Atlanta's franchise in the International Legue next year. It is also rumored that Baltimore and the Boston Red Sox want teams in the Southern next year. Asheville general manager Jim Mills is a Southeastern Conference and Atlantic Coast conference football official S. W. Key, backer and one of Columbus' leading golfers, is treasurer of the Columbus Club.

Columbus' Golden Park, which seats 6,000, is a carbon copy of Montgomery's Paterson Field. Golden Park, incidentally, was built two years after Montgomery's park, and the same plans for Paterson Field were used to build it. $00 Take that well-earned vacation it's important for your family's health and well-being.
