baseball may make Us appearance
in the major league next season.
Powell Crosley jr., president of the
Cincinnati Reds, is considering
scheduling seven night contests, one
with each of the other seven clubs
in the majors. He may do this, he
said, because opening day, Sundays
and holidays have drnwn 70 per cent
of the total attendance at Cincin
nati games. "I feel there is some
thing wrong," ho declared, "with a
business which finds it necessary to
operate on a losing basis on all but
15 days during the season."
He thinks night bnseball during
hot summer months may be the answer.
