At New York, President Ford Frick of the National league said that “it's too early to worry. because the world series is more than five months off." Baseball's new commissioner, Sen, Albert (Happy) Chandler, said at Louisville that “I couldn4 go into any discussion now about a series scheduled for this fall and I know nothing about any pre-season cone ference involving Ford Frick, Will Harridge and the ODT.” There were two long-shot pose sibilities in which the series could go on as scheduled in October with the blessing of the ODT. The firsg would be an early full surrender by Japan. The other would be 8 repetition of last year's one-city world series, Although most elub owners throughout the country maintained & judicious silence, it was pointed. out that the original idea of the ade ministration “green light” to basee ball was principally because of the morale value for troops both in this country and overseas, Inasmuch as the ‘world series, with broadcasts beamed to men in remote outposts, would provide the climax to the seae son, they stressed that its cancellae tion might defeat the entire purpose of the original green light,
