there was absolutely no foundation for

Persons who believe that the war
will seriously affect base ball in the
United States next year should study
the attendance figures just made public
by the Toronto club of. the Inter
national League, says Joe Villa in the
New York Evening Sun. Toronto is a
major league city and some day may
succeed Washington in Ban Johnsons
circuit. During the recent season the
Toronto club drew 100000 paid admis-
sions at the home grounds. $4,000 be,
ing recorded at the International
League games and $4,000 at exhibitions
with major league clubs. The daily
paid attendance exceeded an ave-
rage of 5000. Frequently crowds of
5000. 5000 and 10000 passed the turn
stiles. all on week days. These figures
would seem to indicate that the wsr, so
far. has not interfered with the popu-
