Long Line For Berths In League New York If you're think ing of applying for a fran chise in the American league, you d better get in line. Every since league Presi dent Joe Cronin announced the formation of a fact-finding expansion committee last week, almost every minor league city with major league ambitions has requested con sideration if and when the AL opens its doors to addi tional members. First, a Minneapolis group approached the committee with hat in hand.

Marty Marion, the old St. Louis Cardinals' shortstop and manager who is president of the Houston Buffs of the American a s s o c iation, an nounced Monday night he was prepared to present "definite plans" to the American league committee for a franchise. "We haven't heard from Anchorage, Alaska, or Tokyo yet," an American league spokesman declared facetious ly, "but maybe their applica tions were lost in the mail." The same league official ri diculed a report that Minne apolis and New York would be granted the next two fran chises in the AL, with the New York group then switch ing to the National league in exchange for rights either in Pittsburgh or Philadelphia. "There is no truth to that report," the spokesman said. "As of this moment, nobody knows where the new fran chise will be located or when they will be granted."
