Injury jinx hits Red Sox and TV plans loom for football
The Boston Red Sox endure a string of injuries from spring training starting with veteran Bills Kinder. Sluggers Ted Williams and Billy Goodman join a list sidelined by illness and injury as others return. MLB's injury trend fuels fears of a curse while manager Joe McCarthy boosts reserves. In Pro Football, television expansion faces opposition from league moguls as plans for home-game telecasts and a weekly game of the week take shape under Commissioner Bell. Spring weather disrupts prep sports with delays in track, baseball, and golf, while trout fishing lags behind prior year. Pittsburgh leads NL attendance. Phils pace the senior circuit. Sugar Ray Robinson vows a showdown with Jake LaMotta as boxing eyes TV-era revenue, and Holy Cross hires Ridie Anderson as head coach for the 1950 season against the Eagles on August 11 at Soldier Field.
