Gowdy Joins Indians as Troubleshooter Scout
Hank Gowdy, former New York Giants coach, has joined the Cleveland Indians as a troubleshooter in the farm system. He will travel among the club’s 16 farm teams to help iron out problems. Water samples in Romney were deemed satisfactory by the state health department after 21 tests, with more samples planned. A clover field inspection showed over four fifths of pollinating insects were honey bees. In 1947, two thirds of U. S. farmhouses still lacked running water.
