He based his cheerful outlook on two points: First, an attendance survey by his office for the first three months of the season showed at tendance gains in as many leagues as showed losses. Second, the enthusiasm and in terest he found on his tour. "There can be no doubt but that realignment has helped base ball," Trautman said. Changes Have Helped "The shifting of major league baseball to Milwaukee certain ly was an important realign ment cog in the National league. The same goes for transferring major league baseball to Balti more and Kansas City. "The addition of Denver and Omaha has helped the American association. The entry of Colum bus into the International league has helped that league. "El Paso, as a new member, has helped the West Texas-New Mexico league." He said that the 33 leagues in operation at the beginning of the season are still in business. He also has had inquiries about the possibilities of forming three new leagues. Last season, three leagues folded during the campaign.
