WALTER WILM0T
COMES TO TOWN
Talks of Baseball League for
Next Season.
WOULD FORM NEW CIRCUIT
COMPOSED ONLY OF TOWNS IN
UTAH AND MONTANA.
WOULD FORM NEW CIRCUIT

Walter Wilmot, manager and owner OF
the Butte Baseball club, arrived in Salt
Lake last evening. Wilmot comes to
Zion to talk over the baseball outlook for
next season, and he believes that the
towns interested in the league should get
together and decide just what viii be
doing in that line. He said last night
that he intended 70 have an executive ses-
sion with the owners of the salt Lake
club and have Butte and Salt Lake take
the lead In reorganizing the league next
season, II such a thing is possible
Wilmot was not the least backward in
stating the object of his visit and says
ne wants to reOrganiZe the whole league,
making IL Montana-Utah affair and
cut out all of the coast towns. His idea
is to drop both Spokane and Boise and
make ID siX-team league with Salt
Lake and Ogden on this end and four
towns in Montana on the other and he
suggests that the four Montana towns be
selected from Butte Helena Great Falls
Billings and Missoula. According to VIII
mot. some of these towns have already
made application to join a league of this
kind, and he believes IL would be better
than to take the long trips 10 the coast.
Wilmot does not favor taking in the
coast cities. even IL an opportunity TO do
so should come up. He says THAI Port
land will be dead one this year on ac-
count Of the exposition zip there, as the
fans who live in Portland will not have
time TO go to ball games. and the crowds
who attend the exposition VIII go to Port
land TO see the fair and not 10 attend a
ball game.
The Pacific Coast league meeting is
scheduled to be held in Sar Francisco to-
day. and as soon as it is seen what ac-
ton is taken by that league Wilnot pro-
poses that the Pacific National get hus-
Tie on itself and line up circuit for the
coming season
Butte'S manager viii meet with the Of
Of he al Valx NH an
talk the matter over and see if some de-
finite action concerning next years league
cannot be settled upon at once. The local
club officers have nothing to say on Will
mOt's plan, and probably will not until
after they have talked the matter over
with him.
