When Sport Isn’t Sport

ANYONE WHO loves that old game of baseball can’t help but be a little concerned when one of the largest entertainment corporations in the world, the Columbia Broadcasting System. buys the greatest dynasty ever produced in the game; the iNew r Yankees.

I get the idea the wrong people are waning profession-

- the ’60s. 's aimlng ﬂ that counts to- day.notthenoisyllttleguyateecondbasew canmake the double play or the lanky centre fielder who likes to chew at the ans. When an entutainment corporation has its finger in the baseball pie America’s great game isn’t sport anymore. it's Big Business.

And of. all the teaarfns to let

buy. — The mighty Yan- Ruth. Gehrig, DiMaggio, Gomez. Mantle,

lkees. W1 its Stengel, and the hundreds of others. There's no doubt in my

mind that the Yankees, either loved or hated by the ball fan. has done more for the game than any other inﬂuence.

It's a good bet that the Yankees of the '60s won’t be the same as the oldtlmers. Professional baseball is the greatest money-maker that television has ever had and

BS to exploit the reputation and ability

i I ' ’ nting on v I of yesterday’s and today’s Yankees to make even a greater

buck in coming years. Television. with its great pay-offs. is becoming the dictator of not only baseball but other. pro sports. It dealt boxing

‘d to minor league baseball was even

’ worse. Now it dictates more time out between pitches in major

league games so the sponsor can say a few words. Now that television owns the Yankees what can be done to take “the sport out of sport’? ‘The next step is pay television. There’s a gold mine in- volved here. You can be sure CBS wants its share.
