So baseball is not as important as housing or atomic fallout. Nevertheless, when it was announced that the baseball team Brooklyn Dodgers may go to Los Angeles, California and the baseball team New York Giants to San Francisco, California, several million Americans felt much as if they'd just been evicted or irradiated. To them, and millions of others, the chief present passion in living is connected with the winning or losing of today's ball game. Ball clubs hay; moved before, most recently the baseball teams Boston Braves to Milwaukee, the Philadelphia Athletics to Kansas City and the St. Louis Browns to Baltimore.
