Detroit editor H G Sallinger argues that radio broadcasts do little to boost attendance and that minor leagues should focus on developing new players and faces. He notes fans prefer seeing cast-offs from majors and warns owners lack patience to cultivate talent. IRT Gammon adds ideas on baserunning and pitching stats beyond traditional measures, suggesting a broader numerical approach to evaluate performance.

Great Golf Great Golf: The Full Hip Turn
Robby Jones advocates a full hip turn to maximize power in the golf swing. As the backswing peaks, the hips rotate so the back faces the hole, aided by extending the right leg and bending the left knee to lift the left heel. This pivot is deemed essential for maximum distance.
