ST. LOUIS. Feb. 11.--Lawyer Mortimer

Whatever applica ton Levy's assump-
tion may have to Americans In general.
there can be no doubt that It applies to
baseball at the present moment.
Robert Lee Hedges, who has just got
out of baseball. says that only the
multimillionaire belongs in the national

hall values only millionaires can afford
to attend the games very shortly.
