Baltimore Fans Sing
New Song of Baseball

For two years Baltimore fans
have been singing a song of
major league baseball. First
they howled against the In
ternational League, demand
ing the real thing. The Feds
came and claimed to be able
to deliver the goods. The fans
finally saw the difference and
quit the Feds. Then came a
song entitled, "We Must Have
Major League Baseball, or
Well Know the Reason Why"
No one in particular has at
tempted to give them any big
league stuff and the song has
died away. Two years ago
Baltimore howled down a
class AA outfit that was the
equal Of many major league
clubs. Now it is practically
begging to get into the Inter-
national circuit.
