BRUNSWICK MAY
GET IN LEAGUE
-
Two Circuits Being Form =
ed in Which We Are
Considered
WOULD BE FAST COMPANY
League of Amateur Clubs is Now Be.
ing Organized and Brunswick
is Needed to Complete
the List.

The following from the Augusta
Chronicle will be Of interest to Bruins.
wick fans generally:
The Augusta launched idea of a
six or eight club league for next year,
with short Jumps and a moderate sal
airy limit, is catching on in every city
propoed for membership in the lea
que, and 1t is almost a sure fact that
the organization will be perfected
during the winter months.
AS already told in the Chronicle.
local fandom is heartily in favor Of
the league. and the Augusta Baseball
association will lead in the work of
organization. Through the news
papers and by correspondence the
matter is being agitated, and before
long will result in something definite.
The suggested cities are Augusta,
Columbia, Macon, Savannah, Colum-
bus and Jacksonville, for the six.club
league. There is also talk of making
it an eight-clut league by including
Charleston and Brunswick.
The Columbia State declares that
the baseball association of that city
is ready to put club in the league.
and Jacksonville says that they can
be counted in the league.
The following from yesterdays
Jacksonville Times.Union shows that
we are also being considered in an
other league;
Foridayis to hrve another baseball
league. This one Is to be strictly an
amateur one and will be confined to
Fernandina, Gainesville. OcaIa and
Madison. 1t was stated yesterday
that Brunswick might come In, but
this is somewhat doubtful, as that
city would be hard to reach by any
of the teams with the exception of
Fernandina..
The moving spirit behind this plan
is D. A. Mayf1eld Of Fernandina, one
of the old-timers and one of the most
successful baseball managers in the
state. He was here yesterday and was
hopeful of getting the Roselands into
the league.

Canadian Association of Amateur
