Radio Policy to Protect Minor Leagues Topic
New York January 5. A radio policy to protect minor leagues will be discussed by major league club owners at a meeting here next Thursday. League President Ford arranged the meeting and will admit that radio broadcasts were a contributing factor to last year's 19 percent drop in minor league attendance. Frick said yesterday that other causes such as the decline in power, the tense world situation, and the exceptionally bad weather in 1950 also played a role, noting baseball had the least attendance decline among major sports.
