Although attempting to show that
they do not feel hurt over being
dropped from the Kitty league the
Princeton fans cannot keep from al
lowing their feelings OF jealousy to
crop out in the newspapers of their
city. The showing as cutters last
season and the publishing of the fact
that Princeton is not large enough
10 support a Kitty league team, has
left a very sore spot on the Princeton
fan and one that he will be long
time recovering from. The Democrat
this week said in one item: Prince
ton will at least have an independent
team that will be in position to wal
lop the stuffng out Of the Vincennes
league outfit"
In another place there was this
item; Cheer up. Maybe next year
wen have a berth in the Central lea
que"
Both statements are but the idle
dream that comes from too long a
hit at the pipe. Princeton will neither
have a team that can get into the
position to down the Champs nor will
she have a berth in the Central In
fact she will do well to get into the
bush"
