Toys Books Games monopoly NEW YORK, Dec. 7 (iP)—The major leagues today rejected a plan to cut night ball to 14 games a year, and awarded the 1954 all star game to Cleveland, July 13. The American League took an other step toward its plan of ex panding to a ten-club league by naming a three-man committee to study the possibilities of new ma jor league territory. Although the Pacific Coast was not mentioned, by name, the league amended its constitution last Sept. 29 to expand to the Pacific Coast. Frank Lane, general manager of the Chicago White Sox and a member of the major-minor rer alignment committee, was named to the group with George Medin ger, Cleveland vice president, and Calvin Griffith, Washington vice president.- They are to explore the possibilities and report at some vague future date. Release of the official big league attendance figures for 1953 pointed up the importance of realignment. If Milwaukee hadn’t set a new national league record of 1,826,397 on its.first year, the majors would have • suffered a stunning box office loss. As it was they were able to hold the drop to about 1.7 per cent with a total paid attendance of 14,383,797, only 249,247 less than 1952. or Sister Big Leagues Reject Night Game Ban lake Your Dale Bowling reservations accepted any night Dial 8-9148 DUX CLUB PAGE Se y-bOX Center Don Balthaser and end Jim Garrity were elected co-cap tains for -Penn State’s 1954-55 football team Sunday afternoon at the gridders’ annual banquet held at Camp Hate-to-Leave-It.
