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.
