INTEREST NOT ON WAIVE
President Heydler of National League States That Attendance This Year Exceeds 1920 by 100000.

States That Attendance This Year
 Exceeds 1920 by 100000.
 New York, July 14.-Failure of the Yankees or Giants to draw ca pacity crowds on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, as happened many times last year Y hen the Ruth furore was at it's height, and many persons never before attracted to baseball became interested, is causing cries of alarm in circles outside the ranks of club owners and major league officials. The charge is made that baseball interest has fallen off until a dangerous stage is looming up in the national sport.
 Those who have become alarmed over the situation are offering various answers for the alleged lack of inter est and attendance. Some charge it to the lively ball which the manufac- turers insist is not lively, or, at least, is not changed one iota in makeup as compared with the ball used in the past Others mention that 1920 was an abnormal year, and that the public has become accustomed to Ruth, who was exciting the nation with his feats last year. Some contend that the big fight took the attention of the average fan off baseball, while others mention the general business depres- sion as the cause of the alleged fall ing off in attendance.
 As mentioned above, all the cries about poor attendance are coming from persons on the outside. The club owners are making no complaints. or at least are speaking in whispers if they are not satisfied. President John Heydler of the National league has taken official cognizance of the stories about the falling off in attendance, and he makes the positive statement that his clubs to date have played to l60,O00 more people this year than for the same period last year.
