It took a long time, but Joe Or-
lando is a baseball manager at last.
Orlando just had to wait for the
players to grow up—for his team
is made up entirely of Joe’s sons.
The 11-man squad ranges from 35-
year-old Bonme down to 13-Jrear-old
Oominic. The boys average almost
200 pounds, but they'll be in shape
when their season opens in St.
Louis Amateur League. Orlando has
the boys working out three times a
week, with double duty on Sundays.
The boys never have played any
league as a unit. But they have had
a few practice games as the, Orlando
outfit. The team is certain to have
plenty of fans. Pop Orlando h a s
granddaughters, and countless cous-
ins. And those, grandsons provide a
farm system for the future.

WASHINGTON
Sizing Up The
MAJORS
Manager Charley Dresson of
Washington has come up with a
compromise suggestion on the bon-
us rule. At it stands now, the, rule
says any youngster who received
more than $6,030 tor signing must
remain on the major league roster
two years. This works a hardship on
both the bonus Bilayers and on the
team. The young players suffer be-
cause they ride the bench for two
years, instead of getting valuable
experience in the minors. The team
suffers because its raster is limited
to 25 men—and a bonus baby on
the bench means one. less exper-
ienced player.

Manager Fred Haney and his
P.t-Bsburg Pira.tes are walking a
vicious treadmill.
The Pirates are improving. But
so are all the other. National
League clubs. So it seems Pitts-
burgh is doomed to occupy the cel-
lar for the fourth straight season.
General Manager Branch Rickey
has spent more than $500,000 in
bonuses ... Hart fey has shown great
ability to operate with patchwork
players ... and the Pittsburgh farm
system is beginning to bear fruit.
But the club still is developing ...
still too green to make a move out
of 8th place. And that could cost
Rickey his job.
Despite Rickey statements about
iretlring, it’s believed he'd like the
Pittsburgh directors to pick up a
5-ye.ar option which runs out after
this season. They probably won’t re-
view it if the Pirates stay in the
cellar. And that’s likely. The Pirates
harve just too much ground- to make

Last year they were, last in field-
