    Ira Lowenstein: What, with Harvey Bars?

  • Ira Lowenstein: Mr. Harvey, I would like your executive approval for me to take over the league.

    Ira Lowenstein: I sold you a product when there was no product. This is a product!

    Walter Harvey: There is no room for girls baseball in this country once the war is over.
