...done more than merely educate the fan; it has improved the player. Babe Ruth may have been a hero to kids who never saw the inside of Yankee Stadium, but most of those kids never saw the Babe. Today, youngsters anywhere in the U.S. can see their heroes, watch them play, and copy their style.

On good nights in midwinter, there might be as many as 10 million viewers, according to Nielsen. But if there are fewer on other nights, Carson at least gets a crack at his audience five nights a week...
