From postseason games to spring practice to the several all-star games to September and the real thing -the calendar does tend to get a litlli crowded, at that. Upon us now is the summer all-star season. Football will dominate it through sheer numbers although persistent as ever- is out. There was a time, in fart, when it appeared the major leaguers were determined to match the footballers all-star game for all-star game, even if it took all summer.

But after awhile they and the public both wearied of those multiple exposures and now they are back to a single That billed as the mid-summer make its appearance this year in Minnesota on July 13.

The two leagues will arrive in Bloomington 17 victories apiece and one tie game in the 35 all-star games that have been played starting in 1933.

In yesteryear the classic was simply new opportunity for tlie American Leaguers annually to prove their superiority, which they usually did. But what is that they say about worms turning?

The Southeastern Conference, the Big Ten, the Atlantic Coast Conference. and the independents like Notre Dame and Miami turn out more than we can match A' all-star games go, the Buffalo affair was a pretty goo'1 up to last standard but not bad. The older and better-known Chicago All-Star game, matching the collegians against the NFL champions, often is not good simply because it starts out with all the ingredients of a mismatch.

The Chicago game needs a new format. So does Buffalo. Who really cares deeply if East heats West, or vice versa? In such a situation, the appeal of the game has to rest ultimately with the individual brilliance of the players themselves the passing of a John Huarte, the speed of a Boh Hayes, and that is not always enough. The Texas North South schoolboy all-star game faces the same problem, but for the Texas game there is no apparent alternative. One has been suggested for the Buffalo clash, however.
