Hi Chief,
I think my time is running out. This will be

Subject: Loren Babe failed learning new position
Loren Babe doesn't seem to make
any progress learning his new position, Centerfield.
I would give up this experiment before his hitting suffers.

Subject: Status of Paul Brown
Dear Sir,
Paul Brown seems overmatched at AA !
He has an ERA of 5.38 over there, so I think
you should demote him.

Regards,
Scouting Director



Date: Thursday, 8/24/1961
Subject: Progress of Pumpsie Green
Dear Sir,
Pumpsie Green has nothing more to prove at AA !
He has an AVG of .308 over there, so I think
a promotion wouldn't hurt him at all.

Regards,
Scouting Director
