Baseball Goes On As Energy Crisis Intensifies
Rangers owner Bob Short says baseball would continue through shortages and even wartime crises. He notes Roosevelt gave baseball a national- interest "green light" in World War II and recalls high 1943-45 attendance as defense workers flocked to games. Short envisions eco measures like fewer charters and night games to meet energy quotas, while praising Billy Martin and Ferguson Jenkins as key moves shaping a potentially 75-win next season.
