Drop It Says Friek Re All-Star Game

NEW YORK — Preident Ford Prick of the Ntatlorual league, who suffers intensely, has been de. malndtlng that. his club owners either try to win the critical all-star ggmg or drop it, and Si Louis Cardinals’ victory in tho world series supplies

l:im~ with some welcome added armi

tnunitiqn. Not So Lofty

‘The Cards, by defeating Boob-m Red Sox in four out of seven, dla. polled any notion t-h-att the Amer- ican Loayuc was in a lofty class by itself but their demonstration of clam came too late to do the senior circuit any good this, season,

In otther words. the fearful beat- ing adtmlnislered to the National leagumo in the alLsiar game at Boston badly damaged the loops prwtige, in Rick‘; opinion, and probably oust it. zit-any a dollar at the box office the remainder of the year. Thut it was an unfair test of strength was amply demon- strated by the Cards during the last 10 days.

“Int/s cit-her plaiy the all-star game to vrin. or drop it entirely," Frick urgtrd Ov/net Sam Broadnm of the Si. Louis clutb after watch. ing the Red Birds take the climber Tuesday. 4-8. "All it does is hurt us

"Hen is your club. which had to go through a play-off to win in our league, outplaying a team that ran a/way and hid from the zest of the ltmerion League. Yet ever since midseaaon they've been talking like we didn't belong in the same class with tthem. I'm tiled oi taking it."

Pitta Finger 0n Sam,

Although he tlidlft tell the Could-S owner so in as many wozxis, it was obvious that Frtck regarded Breed. on as the chief contributor to his misery. No Harry Blmhoen, who soured three triumphs over the Red Sox. 0r Howie Pallet, the league's leading pitcher at the time, partic- ipated in the Ud-Hy July debacle wt Boston. The National Magnets em- ployed several throwers matted Joe ir. the lumen-ted contest, and tilwy were murdered Tod Williams, it is vividly recalled, belted imp home runs and hard a field (la-y. Yet in the series just ended. the Cardinals curves tied Tleddla in knots, held him to five singles.

All this Frick pointed out 0o Brendon in anguish, and adoed him to lend a. helping hand in the next alLsrar tussle, bur, Sam remained tat-impressed.

“Nope, Ford, the world series is the big thins,’ he uomumad, "tho/L's the one we wan-t tn win. The close moot: we have in our league, we can't afford to take a chance and lo: one of our good pitchers work in the all-star vthcn it. might lose ts a game.

"The Anwriom League now, has these loose races and t-iwy 0811 throw all their bop pitchers against us in the allstar. Int. ‘an: have their fun. I'd rather win the series every time."

hooking back on the world ser- ies, it is possible that. the defeafwd Sox were banned by blwir i008 coast-in after clinching their pen. natnt, amd i-hut. the attained wait while t-he Cardinals and Blwlllln Dodgers. were going overtime did thcm no good.

The Sox, in retrospect. did 100k n little misty. For instance. 1119i!‘ grozut shortstop, J-z-hntiy PBS-ll!

The Georgia peach said St. Louis Cardinals tamed Williams with an cvershlfted defence and inside Plwhm-S. mm added: “I don" see why American IL-ague teams can't stop him the same way "

The jtmior circuit nevq- could trap Cobb during his years wjmh Detroit when he led league hitters l2 times. But, Cobb admitted. he could place one on a pop bottle cap in any field.

“In my day we didn't. call anyone a hitter who couldn't drive to all fields. Williams must be mnmalr. alble if he can hit only to night field and the opposition still can't; stop him."

Commenting on the Cardinal shift which senm nearly everybody except the batboy into right field, Cobb said: “The good hitters I know would lmve got. on base every iii-mt: with a placed rap to left."

Ty believes Ted would m-ake a better record “if he learns to change his stance“

A new stance would enable aha Boston swat king to pole I. few into loft. field and thereby make a shambles of any nver-sltlfted de- fence. “Then tn-aybe he can make the great hitters of my daty look like buSh bowlers,"

The decision of the executives to have all playoff games played to a finish should also be a pleas- ing move to the hockey public. states Hutchewn. Tie games are never quite satisfactory. but they

work out okay when the point. system is employed. But they leave an "unfinished" taste. When

the hockey is tight enough to pro- d-uce tie scores fans will willingly sit a long time to waizil it, and like it.

Set Attendance Records In Both Major Leagues

NEW YORK, Oct. Z—(AP)— Major league baseball paid atten- dance Increased 0S per cent in 1940 over 1045 to set records in both leagues, unofficial but virtually complete figures showed today. The American League drew 0.- 660421 compared with 6,002,366 last year, and the National Izague drew 8-946283 compared to 5.372.819. Last yetr’: totals were the highest up to that time.

New York Yankees with 2,309,029 broke the major league record of 1.485166 set by Chicago Cubs in i929. Although the Yankees wound u-p in third place and played unrlcr three different managers, their 10' ial was more than double last YEar's 1,014,936.

Two other clubs also exceeded the Cubs 1929 mark-Brooklyn in the National with 1,796,155. which was tops in that circuit, and De- troit, in the American lbeague with 1,722,590.

The American League champions. Boston Red Sox, drew 1,418,944. Hitherto 1000.000 paid attend- ance has been accepted 1n statis- tical-minded baseball as the tilti- mate goal of any club owner Ten of the l6 tslms bettered that fir:- ure in 1945, compared to fivr 1w yenr and none in 1944.

To the New York Giants went the distinction uf being the only lust place team to attract more than 1.000.000 customers, the total being 1234,7133. Two other second division clubs also betieretl l.‘ 000,000. the Phillie: and Cleveland lnrli-ins.

The Phillies.

emerging from a icing rcsidence in the National League cellar, made the greatest increase of any team in the ur- cuit, with a gain of 734,856 over the 1945 total attendance of only 310,389.
