But before toe very took job ts Insisted It wriMM in contract that he; must the Supreme power--the court, Hat the Finsl Power la saner moments, perhaps noat ul would have agreed to heartily to that amazing deihmnd of Landif. Bat Jusi then the magBjtei were in a lop sided ot died; they were willing to agree to anything johncoa opposed. So Landis job and Laaols, ever a lover of the spotlight, ever an apostle of self ty. iras quite a. person during the world series festivities in 1921 anil again in 1522.

Everywhere roaiJ- end crowds jammed to glimpse him and that ferocious, soul searching Stance, which be so often. affects worked overtime. Xewspaper men paged him constantly for words aui yet more words snapped him in post. But and photographers every conceivable different. Since then Frazee and Huston, real! instigators ot plan which pat Landis into power have gone eat ofj the game; ComlsVey, the third individual, ao longer Is active in Xono but National Leaguers remain of the group which so frantically gate their baseball heritage to Lanills.

plus a S30.9M annual salary. All Of them thought at tho outset that Landis-would be kept fearfully busy with-intricate of tha 'game and that be would earn every hotel lobbies; most ot the reporters either passed him by--or merely nodded greetings. And photographers took one or two complimentary shots at' him--and let it go at Feeling Grows Bitter And most of the game hours, Landis, whose companionship was sought so eagerly In 1921 and 1952 was laft largely to himself, as far as-the magnates were concerned. Antagonism toward. Landis has srown daring the past 1" months.

The father high handed' methods' which hs uses In dealing with baseball's affairs has soured come of the men who once reckoned him as "baseball's hercules." The last bit of tuel necessary to feed the flame of wrath against' Landis was furnished by the jurist, himself. In all other years the National Commission--Landis and Johnson and Heydler--the league presidents--always have, met and "decided upon world series dates. This year Lasi- dis never consulted either, but openly affronted both by. making the decision after meeting with tha rival championship club owners. necessary for his expenses anil office upkeep.

But ia the last year Ken's main job, it seems, has been to gallivai around the country and attend banquets--with balldsm paying all' Jaunting expenses. Tha magnates probably wouldn't be so woefuUy un- happj- if Ken let it go at that an-J simply spent his time eating around tbe circuit.
