coast league, will graduate from
its class- AA status to become the
third major league in about five
years. , .
Here for the Portland-Seattle
series, Rowland said he believed
when he became league president
that it would require 15 years.
maybe more, to reach the big
league status, but war years have
changed the west coast ball 'clubs.
Attendance Big Reason:
He said population growth and
greater interest in the sport, evi
denced by the recent record 185,
000 attendance for one week ' in
the four cities and the top of 68,
381 attendance to see the Port
land-Seattle, series at Seattle two
weeks, ago. - - -1 . .-. - ,
Purchase of the Salem Senators'
park and franchise in the West
em-International league by the
Portland club is another step in
that direction that should be du
plicated by other; west coast ci
ties, Rowland asserted.
"I'd like to see! each coast city
club owning or ' sponsoring
Western-International club, and I
can say our directors feel the
same way about it,"
