PENNANT RACES OPEN THIS WEEK New York. April 9 —<U.R) —Coif, radio and flivvers were popularly ‘opposed, a few voars ago. to be putting baseball on what was sometimes slaneily referred to as the blink. The idea nr w is as outworn as the sang. The national pastime had a lure of its own. all the way from “One Old rat” on the corner lot to the climax ot the world series, and when the pennant races of 1928 get under way this week the presence of a quarter of a million fans at the opening games will attest baseball's pennant popularity. President John Heydler of the national league and President E. S. Barnard of the Americ an both have predicted through the United Press that the coming season will be the most prosperous and beet amended in history. When the number cf golfers in the United States increased from a fewhundred thousand t.o several million, pessimists wrote the obituary of organized baseball. When the radio brought the game to every speakeasy, crepe-hangers prepared a big black how for baseball's gate receipts. The cheap automobile was expected to depopulate the nation's ball parks in a season or two. And the staunch old national pastime went right ahead and broke major league attedance records for the past five seasons in succession. "The same thing will happen in our league in 1928, predicts Heydler. I "That goes for our league, too," ■ chimes in Barnard. The? major league season opens a i day early in Washington this year, out of courtesy to President Coolidge. So seriotH'y do the folks who run the pastime take the business ot having the first ball thrown in by some frock coated dignitary that they have arraged a special game at Griffith stadium on Tuesday for the President's benefit. Afterwards, the Red Sox and the Washington Senators will journey to Boston and open the season all over again with the ojliers on Wednesday. Twelve million fans are expected to pay or crash their wey into the major League parks from April to September. 1928. Baseball magnates are reluctant to announce exact attendance figures, except to admit, like the circus press agents, that they are bigger and better than ever before. But 12,000,000 is believed to be a conservative enough estimate of this coming season's attendance. Both pennant races are expected to be better than last year's. Yet both the Yankees and Pirates are picked to repeat. There is a widespread feeling among fans that the world's champions will not ho able to make such a runaway race of it this coming season, but on paper and logically no club figures to beat them. The Pittsburgh Pirates are rated the strongest club in the National league but the'senior circuit is better balanced than it was in 1927, and every club except Philadelphia has a fighting chance to make the first division.
