Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. 27.-Interest
in baseball is being manifested in the
northwest earlier than usual this year,
owing probably to the fine Weather for the
past few weeks.
President e. NJ. Kent of the North
Dakota Amateur Baseball association, an
nounced yesterday that he was issuing a
call for a meeting of the managers and
representatives Of the various clubs which
belonged to the league last season, to
be held in the Hotel Dacotah in this city
| at 10 a. M, March u. At this time all
! questions regarding the plans for the
coming season will be taken up and dis
| cussed. 1t cannot be stated at this time
what cities will be represented in the
league. Last season the clubs in the
league were Grand Forks, Hillsboro, Far
go, Larimore, Devils Lake, Lakota, Ca
waller, Milton, and Langdon. The ma
jority Of these have already signified a
willingness to be in the new league this
season, and In addition several other
! places have had the matter under consid-
GRAFTON till it can be stated with authori-
ty that there will certainly be strong
league of some kind.
1t is an open question whether the
teams this season will be amateur or
professional. There is a certain class of
enthusiasts who think salaried teams OF
professionals are what is wanted, while
another class feel that the amateur team
! is what is wanted in this section of the
country and that no other kind of baseball
can be made success.
| Winnipeg will without doubt be In
cluded in the league that is formed this
year, and Crookston will also ,be in the
ring as great enthusiasm was aroused
there last season and a good team was
put in the field.
| 1t is expected there will be very large
attendance at the meeting.
1t is probable that the season will open
earlier this year than last and close ear
| lier, as it is impossible to get crowds in
! this section Of the country after the har-
vest is on. The general sentiment of last
years managers who have been inter-
viewed during the winter seems to be in
favor of a short season. with games COM
! ing in rapid succession.
