INTERFERENCE
BY OTHER CLUBS TWISTING OF TRADING FACTS New York, April 9.
IF it's not asking too much, Tom Yawkey, mil- lionaire owner of the Boston Red Sox, would like to spend his money as he pleases without too] much criticism from the other owners in the American League.
Yawkey doesn't want to make anything of this. He merely wants it made clear that "with the exception of the deal for Joe| Cronin every price I have been quoted as paying for ball players has been grossly exagerated: and even if they hadn't it would be my own private concern.” It is generally accepted that Yawkey has spent $3,500,000 on the club since 1932.
"Everybody's worrying about my going broke," Yawkey
said. "And while I appreciate their interest, I don't think there's
much of a chance of that. I'm not kicking about paying and unless I completely upset, the balance of power in the league I don't think this adverse criticism is justified.”

SWEEPING PRESS ATTACK ON M.F.A. MANY OFFICIALS ASKED TO RESIGN.
FAMOUS CLUB'S DETERIORATION EVER since the entire first and second elevens
of the Malaya Football Association were suspended by the Singapore Amateur Football Association League Council two seasons ago, on an alleged charge of professionalism, the Malays, at one time ranked the finest football combination in the Malayan Archipelego, have been deteriorating, and recent events in the Straits, and particularly in Singapore, have led to sensational resignations by Abdul Rahman, Dolfattah and Mat Noor, probably three of the finest soccer players in the East and well-known to Hong Kong and Shanghai touring teams.
That many of the best Malay footballers have resigned from their clubs because they have no faith in the officials of the Malaya F.A. is one of the many statements made by "Hairan"
