Interview with baseball coach
Pete Bel dm.
By John Armstrong
Beiden: Three Improvements ln
our program — a new ball park,
more money snd better  practice
facilities   —   would   put   Fresno
State baseball back on Its feet.
You sold "back on its feet,"
tbe situation really that bad?
Beiden:  I feel that lt won't
too  long  hero re  we  really  start
slipping ln baseball. It we lose a
couple ol key boys, lt could start
next year. I don't care If I'm here
or   it's   somebody   else.    Unless
something   Is   done,   baseball   at
Presno State has nowhere to go
but down. It Is disappointing
see a program that raised Fresno
State pretty high ln college
ball   crumble   before   your   eyes.
Why didn't that nntionnl tour¬
nament in 1959, stimulate Ottr
baseball program much like the
Mercy Bowl stimulated football?
Beiden: When we got back
from the tournament there were
about 1G0 or ZOO people waiting
to greet us, which is very "tutus¬
ual. In fact I believe we were
even on a TV program. But we
were never put ln the limelight
Uke the football team. TheHhlag
Just never gathered momentum,
;eople sold to me, "Pete, your
problem ought to be solved. The
kids ought to swarm ln here like
files." Welt, lt wasn't that almpte.
They didn't swarm ln Uke flies;
A test like that should have
helped tremendously but It didn't.
In fact we weren't treated as well
In Freano us we were in Omaha!
couldn't believe the way we
were treated back there. I told
the people In Omaha that I
thought tbey had their sports
mixed up. I told them we played
baseball, not football.
With all of our success on the
diamond tn recent ' years, why
hasn't baseball caught
ball has?
Beiden: Football gets SO per
cent of the attention and the rest
of the sports 10 per cent. As an
Illustration, I remember going to
a spring press banquet last year.
Eighty per cent of the questions
from the press concerned football.
This kind of Irritates me. After
a while you Just don't want to go
to something like that anymore.
J don't know what you have te
do. I used; to think that all It
took was a good bsll club. Now
1  know that Isn't  enough.  I  re¬
member last year we played Csl
up there. It was a real big ball
same, well played and well at¬
tended. When we got back to
Presno we found headlines In the
paper about a spring football
scrimmage. As for as I'm con¬
cerned, when a scrimmage takes
preference over s major event
like a game with Cal, something's
got to be wrong somewhere. After
a while..the boys begin to feel
like they don't amount to any¬
thing. Host ot all, I feel sorry for
them. But to answer your ques¬
tion. I think the reason baseball
hasn't caught on like football has.
Is because football gets all the
glamour. I don't think It should
get all the glamour. I don't see
why we should have rallies and
bands and pom pom girls Just for
football. All the excitement Is
generated   for   football   and   the
rest of the sports get what's left
over.
Why does football get all die���glamour  and   excitement?
Beiden: Let's say we didn't
give football all that publicity
and glamour. Let's say we played
football out on the practice field
on a Friday afternoon ln the heat.
The fans wouldn't have drinking
facilities or rest room facilities.
Do you think we'd average 10,000
or IE,000 a RimeT Do you think
thst under those conditions foot¬
ball would generate all that ex¬
citement? I don't think lt would.
Do you think that if our basket¬
ball team played out on a dirt
court instead of ln a nice, clean
gymnasium, they'd draw as many
people as they do nowT No, they
wouldn't. Well, that's the thing
tbat   Is   Involved   with   baseball.
Baseball Team
