Majors Made Bad Muff

Probably more appreciated by
soldiers and sailors, though, have
been the visits of major league clubs
to Great Lakes Naval Training Sta
ton, Norfolk Naval Training Base,
Fort Meade, Fort Belvoir, etc.
Thousands of soldiers stood in a
steady rain at Fort Meade to view
the Mats and Athletics play and
they loved it.
BY now many baseball officials are
willing to admit Baseball Commits
sioner Kenesaw Mountain Lands was
too hasty in yanking major league
clubs out of the South for spring
training They feel baseball missed
the boat by not training in the South
last spring and staging exhibitions
exclusively for the entertainment of
Servicemen.
There has been a complete about
face in that department. Pressure
is being applied to get major league
teams to do their training in the
South next spring, not with the
muscles of the athletes in mind, but
with view toward inserting a little
fun into the lives of soldiers and
sailors.
Baseball is doing a good job, but
undone is better job baseball could
do. 1t could promote that idea of
shipping its players to wherever
fighting men would like to see them.
