ST. LOUIS, Oct. 5.-If you think
that severe looking gray-haired man
down in the box seats hasn't much
to do with the world series, you're
mistaken.
He's Kenesaw Mountain Lands,
commissioner of organized baseball.
What can he do to the world
series? What can't he do?
He can change the schedule-just
like that!
If he says so, no one can go on
the field, no additional stands can
be constructed for the series, and
no overflow crowds can be accom-
modated on the field.
