It's pretty well known that the aorse-and-buggy men of major loa- ue baseball looked with a ja - iced eye toward the night game when 1t first was ‘roduoe by ihe Cincinnati Reds back in 1985. few of them admitting the durned thing was here to stay. These die-herds must get a little ’ red around the gills now when they look back on their expressed opin- ions. although it's true enough that if they had come out at that time with the flat prediction that some day nearly all the major teams would be playing at night when- ever they had the urge they would have been considered dopey vzs- ionaries like the guys who thought Germany and Japan were getting, Nady 1Q &0ther war.

Now: ' Night baseball has been adap- ted to the point where all but live Parks are equipped with lights. in- sinllcd because the clubs found they could profit as handsomely as Cincinnati by playing at night. From the 1936 guide: i "There is always the possibility‘ ' ' of being hit with a pitched balLi which of course increases with the} Playing of the game at night Now: Comparnflvely few beaningsi are suffered in night games. In fact. the most serious instances of hit aalsmcn in recent years have oc- curred in daylight games.

The way Montrealers used the experience gained in two previous tramway tic-ups within the last 17 months to go about their business with some semblance of order pro- ved to be the most interesting de- velopment of the day, for an un- usual quiet remained over the sur- face of the strike front.
