This was the discovery made by the
University Of California baseball nine
on It's invasion of Japan, during which
II won eight games and lost three.
Said the California team captain:
THE American fan cannot imagine
what baseball means in Japan. An
average of something like 1000 spec
tators attended each of the games. and
throughout they never made the
slightest sound. There was not one bit
OF roofing. There was not a cheer. Ii
was strange and peculiar experience,
but this did not Interfere with our
crowd.
I'VE just went ahead and made all
the racket possible. our coaching must
have been revelation to the crowd.
and just before our departure for
home the Mayor OF Yokohama. who
was our host, observed that he and his
fellow countrymen had been more
than gratified at our demonstration.
and he ended by saying.
I'VE in Japan believe that as we

more friendly. But before we JAPAN

And for the life OF me am not

Round the Sport Circle

That baseball is public property and
must be treated as such, even though
it be privately owned
The old-time policy of maintaining
a strict silence on all inside matters

boomerang to the magnates.

Ehave been the first to expose the

were allied. True, the powers that be
did not have first-hand proofs at the

bringing the offenders to task. But
they moved too slowly.
