Similar withdrawal of working agreements took place in the Western League in 1958 when that league was wiped out. Jim Burns American Association president, said in Denver that loss of OniSha "would create some problems" but that he didn't feel the league's survival was at stake.

Midwest attention immediately centered on the possibility oHrevival of the Western League to include Omaha, Lincoln, Des Moines and Topeka. Whether or not Omaha would be interested in such a league on a lower classification was the big problem, Omaha has never had a local ownership' in its 15 years of professional baseball.
