Dick Lewis and Joe Gregg, who
are to fight before the Pastime

SPORTING BREV|T|ES

Terry McGovern's manager de-
cines to match the Terrible Ter
ry' against Jimmy Britt, holding
off for a meeting with Battling Mel
son. There is no particular reason
to suppose that Nelson will take on
Terry for some time to come, and
a fight between McGovern and
Britt would greatly stimulate inter-
est in a meeting between the win
ner of such a match with Nelson.
If Terry really has come back
there Is no excuse for his refusal
to meet Britt. AS matter of fact,
it has yet to be demonstrated that
Terry is in his old time form. In
his fight with Tommy Murphy less
than three minutes actual fighting
took place. Murphy is only a third
rater, and did not administer suf-
ficient punishment to demonstrate
whether Terry can still stand the
gaff in a give and take battle such
as ne would go against in a meet
ing with Nelson.
The proposition to shorten the
baseball season is coming favor,
and it now looks as though the
regular schedule may be cut
month or six weeks. The newest
plan contemplates that each club
OF one leageu shall play a series
OF four games with each of the
other leagues, and then the pen
nant winners will play six games
for the championship.
A l2-round contest between
Tommy Murphy and Jimmy Dunn
Will take place before the Nonpar-
ell A. c. at Sharon, Pa, next Mon.
day night.

Players salaries were very low
in the early days of baseball, SIS
to 500 per month being considered
as good. The schedules were short
and only three games per week
were played by each team.
Charlie Comiskey was signed by
Won der Abe, of st. Louis, in 1888,
at salary, if my memory serves
me right, of SIS per month That
was multiplied by 20 before he quit
st, Louis, and l may add that he
earned it all.
The success of the American as
ISOLATION brought new life to the
National league; they again ad-
mitted Philadelphia and New York
and midseason failures were not so
frequent as formerly. This put
some other ambitious people to
thinking, and in 1884 the Union
association was organized, backed
by Harry V. Lucas, a ST. Louis man
of wealth. A three-cornered fight
was started which brought the Ma
tional league and American associ-
alton nearer together, and soon the
Union association, with the excep-
ton of the st. Louis club, which
was admitted to the National
league, was all that was left of
the rival league.
