From 1901. when the iellile first operated as a major league, we ‘nave had many great penngnt tsi"'\. no fewer than four of them coming in the last six years.

Basing my opinion on fan Inter- est and attendance during the re- cent spring training period in the south. I believe that this coming season will be equally as success. ful as those of the 1948 and 1949 rampalgnl. when a total-or 21.800,- 746 fans turned.out.

Last season. when New York. Yankees took the penna on the final day from Boston vlr ually to match in excitement the 1943 pgn. want tie between Cleveland and Boston. the league attendance was 0.730.647.

THE NATIONAL LEAGUE

(The following size-up of the i950 National League baseball sea- son was written for the Associated Press by League President Ford C. Friclt.)

(By Ford C. Irish President of the National League)

NEW YORK. April l6—(AP)—As the National League prepares to start its 15th season. ! would like to stray off the beaten track in this pre-aehlon stateme t.

Annually. it has been my ood fortune to be given the oppo un- lty of making a prediction on the kind of baseball we expect.

But before going into that phase of the subject. I would like to take tin?‘ out ,to pay a com- pliment to t e club owners in the National League. I am balm)’ do be associated with them because they are the kind of enterprising‘ gentlemen who recognize their ob- ligation: and make every effort to meet them. ‘ " t .

When I speak of obligations. I refer to those to the fans. The baseball fans. in the United states have been the most loyal ‘of sport followers. They have Igiven great aupport‘to the game as is evi- denced from the trem ndous atten- dances that baseball as enjoyed since the end of the recent war.

Club owners in the National Lea- gue have not ignored such support and loyalty. In all the years that I have been identified with the league. I never have noticed a more strenuous effort to improve eachrlub as there has been thil year. a

The effor of these club owners should our y be reflected in the kind of a race that we expect in the National Lealme this >’9l|’~ From my own observations. and from those of impartial observers. It is my conclusion that we again will enjoy a season that will be as closely contested as those that we have had in the league dur-
