The above telegram from President
Power. OF the Interstate. will again

the qualifications necessary for a sue
cessful base ball manager. If he had

Wayne have not been greatly pleased
with the new company which they en-
tered. They were too high priced. and
too fast, for the Michigan State league.
Tt is likely that if Saginaw and Jack
son are to enter the Interstate they also
are dissatisfied. The proposed circuit
will contain some very long jumps, but
