By RAY SAIL Effort of Barney Gatski, Pancho Sacco, Phi! Sarno and numerous other to form one large baseball league for this region next season deserve support from all those interested in amateur baseball. It seems ise, in these days of high operating costs, to pool all available resources and the above named men should be congratulated for getting an early start on doing just that.

If the efforts are successful, look for many of the problems that annually crop up to be solved. We are speaking of use of playing fields, players competing in two different leagues, etc. Glance over this morning's sports pages and you'll see that eight games are scheduled in the region tonight. All these games involve boys as far as the actual competition goes. What about the girls? It seems that the local high schools could at least have basketball on a competitive basis for the gals.

Excepting swimming and diving, American women made a weak showing in the Olympic games and part of the reason for it is that most girU have no chance to compete in sports. Field hockey is another sport for ferns that can be operated on a low cost basis.
