Outfielder Johnny Cooney of

They said the Florida climate

Baseball Program Outlined
To Aid in National Defense
By Judsoa Bailey
New York, Feb. 3. (P) Baseball's bit In this second world
war la going to be something more substantial than Just help
ing maintain the morale of the country.
The major leagues decided,
yesterday they would play two
all-star games instead of one for
the "bat and ball fund and
in addition would try to get
everyone on their payrolls from
Commissioner Kenesaw M. Lan
dis down to the batboys to ac
cept 10 percent of their salaries
in defense bonds.
The National and American
leagues were in almost contin
uous session fcr seven hours yes
terday and they considered
oilier means of cooperating in
the war effort such as exhibi
tion games with service teams
and admitting uniformed men
free but their big accomplish
ments were the double all-star
spectacle and the payroll, plan.
They agreed to play the first
all-star game in a National
league park in the east (prob
ably the New York Giants' Polo
Crounds) on Monday, July 6,
and to follow this the next day
with another skirmish between
the same stars in an American
league park in the west. The
owners admitted an inclination
to play this second game at
nisht in the mammoth munici
pal stadium at Cleveland, where
they might attract 80,000 fans.
It was agreed that the ad
mission prices for the first game
would be double the regular
scale, while the second game
would be played at ordinary
prices, plus one dollar, each
purchaser also would receive $1
in defense stamps with his
ticket.
By this means the magnates
hoped to inflate to a quarter of
million dollars the fund they
have otvanized to buy baseball
equipment for service camps.
The two leagues were unable
to reach complete agreement on
night baseball and tossed this
old argument back into Landis'
lap at their special joint meet
ing tod.iy. The National league
voted to double the number of
its night games to permit a
maximum of 14 nocturnal con
tests at home tor each club and
this figure was agreeable to all
members of the American
league except the Washington
Senators. '
