Oct 23 (UP) — ue 32 Grand Slammers Plentiful in Major Leagues By Joe Reichler NEW YORK Oct 23 (AP— A grand slam homer — the dream of every batter — was almost rou tine last season Led by Sid Gordon of the Boston Braves the big league sluggers slammed a record number of 68 home runs with the bases full to surpass easily their previous one year high Gordon who had hit only three grand slammers in seven previous seasons under the big top hit four in 1950 to equal a record held by three other National leaguers and four American league batters Twelve players including home run king Ralph Kiner hit two The others during the campaign were Roy Campanella and Gil Hodges Brooklyn Del Ennis Wilr lie Jones and Andy Seminick Phils Bobby Thomson New York Giants Vern Stephens and Walt Dropo Boston Red Sox Larry Droby and Al Rosen Cleveland and Gil Coan Washington The National league accounted for 35 grand slammers to better its previous top mark of 30 set in 1929 The American accumulated 33 to fall four short of its record of 37 in 1938 Just compare those figures to 1943 Only seven years ago the two leagues hit a combined total of 12 grand slam homers four by the National and eight by the American The record low is one — by the National It was hit by George Kelly of the 1920 Giants The American league low is two — by Nap Lajoie and Elmer Flick of the Indians in 1907 Kiner's pair of grand slam homers tied him with Bill Nicholson of the Phils and Ron Northey of the Chicago Cubs for the lead among the active performers in the National league Each owns eight connected once last year Northey to none for Nicholson The only National leaguers to hit more were Rogers Hornsby and Kelly Horns-b- y hit 12 and Kelly 10 The active American leader is Joe DiMaggio Theleague New York Yankee

weather and the rapid expansion of major league radio broadcast networks Bob Finch National association spokesman declared: "We had more postponements than ever before I don't know what the percentage of postponements was but it was pretty darn high" Television it was pointed out did little to contribute to the minors' attendance decline "But the saturation of the country with broadcasts of major league games has hurt attendance tremendously" Finch said "What can you expect?" he added "If fan listens to a major league broadcast in the afternoon he's either too tired or not interested enough to come out and see a minor league game at night" The situation Finch added will be thoroughly dealt with at the minor league meeting at St Petersburg Fla in December He said another ruling would have to be made so 'that the same problem would not be faced next season As usual the Pacific Coast league —with a longer schedule than any other circuit — led in attendance with 3179170 admissions The International league was next with 1922358 followed by the Southern association with 1840222 the American association with 1805168 and the Texas league with j White Sparkles At Traps of Ogden Gun Club

coach of the New York Yanks who had never before seen the Browns lose a gams had a tectical explanation for thf Browns' second straight loss to the Giants "Brown never had an outside running threat in all the years he wag in the conference" Strader said "We fooled everybody into thinking he did but he didn't The fact is he just doesn't have a running game at all now that Marion Motley's threat down the middle is gone" Ths victory sent the Giants into a tie for first place in the American conference with the PhiladelEagles who came from bephia hind to beat the Pittsburgh Steel-er- s 17 to 10 and
