Postwar sports need strict national commissioners
The author argues for a powerful national commissioner for major sports after the war to restore public confidence and curb corruption. Baseball, racing, football, and boxing are named as needing strong, widely respected leaders with real authority, capable of enforcing integrity amid postwar expansion and returning servicemen. It also notes Bob Feller’s return to action after military service and a long pitching hiatus.
