Braham, president of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues. Revenue re leased for defense bonds, 000, Bramham's salary, plus 000, cost of operating his office. Divert the sinking fund of the Association of Professional Base ball to defense bonds, total 000.

winning 25 are at a premium. For the greatest prospects arc ruined before they reach the majors. 'Kid pitchers want to learn how to throw a curve even before they can toddle," he went on.
