Winter Night At Syracuse Coliseum Test For Fans
On opening night for the Coliseum the Syracuse crowd faced Old Man Winter and a delayed BYU trip due to plane trouble. A large 4,278 spectators turnout kept concessionaires happy as the season started with winter woes and a tense sports scene across town. Joe Louis retained his title after a fierce exchange with Joe Walcott, while baseball whispers hinted Ed Barrow may return to manage a major club, possibly the Yankees, with McCarthy already back in Boston. The Pacific Coast League seeks major league recognition, urging swift action from the majors rather than more foot-dragging.
