[0:25] weeks we have studied unemployment in

[0:28] Detroit and we have studied prosperity

[0:30] in Western Kansas today we would like to

[0:32] turn our cameras on another industry not

[0:34] as important as wheat or employment but

[0:37] nevertheless a billion dollar industry

[0:38] and capable upon occasion of driving the

[0:42] price of wheat unemployment and even Joe

[0:44] Stalin off the front pages

[0:46] we would study today the making of a

[0:48] baseball club

[0:49] the Brooklyn Dodgers 1952 model after

[0:52] all that is not essentially different

[1:37] produced four Penance no World

[1:39] Championships but on April 15 another

[1:42] season begins the start of a new fiscal

[1:45] year

[1:46] the Books open clean the one in Lost

[1:49] columns the profit and loss columns to

[1:52] baseball like any big business both are

[1:54] important

[1:54] [Music]

[2:05] it's 1400 miles from the Ebbets Field

[2:09] showroom to the Dodger drafting boards

[2:11] at Vero Beach Florida
