Since this game enthusiasm has waxed
warm over the organization of a perma-
nent club, and perhaps an inter-county
league. Aaron Brownmiller, who was an
old member of the Toronto professionals,
is looking for three or four inoneyed men
of town to join him in backing the home
nine. His plan is to employ profes-
sional pitcher and catcher, forming the
remainder of the club from local material
and make overtures to Tamaqua, Girard-
vile, Shenandoah Ashland and perhaps
Shamokin to organize clubs on the same
basis.
The short distance between these towns
and the cheap car fare should do much to
make the formation of league quite
successful. A little money was made
here by Ollie Weber last season, and it is
thought that with good police protection
the game could be made to pay this sum
mer, besides furnishing amusement tC
thousands of ball cranks who don't care
to incur the expense of car fare to Potts
vile.
