AMATEUR FANS
ARE HAPPY.

The outlook for amateur baseball In
this city has suddenly changed from
darkness and discouraglng prospects to
a bright future. This change was
brought about last evening, when the
Salt Lake Business college jumped Into
the field and took the initial steps In
organizing first class amateur team.
If the plans are carried out II is sure
10 interest other institutions In base
bah and make possible the orgahizatlon
OF a scholastic or minor league.
The proposition has been discussed
for several days, but did not assume
anything like definite shape until last
evening, when a meeting was held, and
Clarence McFadden was chosen man
ager, with Leo Nichols, captain, and
VIII Smith, assistant A permanent
organization will be effected at once,
and among those who are likely 60
follow the banner OF the Business col

known football players as Scott GrOes-
beck, VIII and Fred Smith and Earl
Gardanier,
That they may be eligible TO positions
on the college team they have already
made applications to take night courses
at the college.

sincere In its promise that the track
Will not be conducted upon q poverty
basis; that only riders Of known ability
VIII be encouraged, that they Will be
properly classed and will be given lib
eral purses for good honest riding. The
