Looking over the hills at the w F.,

Meanwhile, it is stated that Cumbpr-
land, thus dropping the management of
the Cumberland and Georges Creek
League, Will turn it over to Piedmont,
the only team that Will be able to hire
alien talent.
This Is about all the JOURNAL can
CLEAN from printed reports, and Keno"

The day for DIN Gunnett to leave the

likely his oath of office will keep him

The fRosrHrRG MINING Journal. whose
baseball comment has created considerable
amusement throughout this section has
shown a rare disregard for veracitv on plac-

friendly spirit which has characterize it in
the past.
Lots of people don't like the truth.
Same people carry "A chronic aversion to
truth-telers. That is why they long
for 'relief" from the trouble" which
truth-telling brings
There are hundreds of other peopIe
who distinctly remember hat there was
no unfriendlv spirit in this region I'M
I'll Cumberland, awaking from Rip
Van Wrinkle slumber, sat up, took
notice, and then assumed charge of the
game.
Without going into details-also of
''unfriendly" memory, the JOURNAL
k0oW$ 1t voices the best baseball opinion
of this region when it refers to Cum
berland's advent into the game as the
beginning of the era of "trouble," and
the prOv0catiOn for sO-called "troube-
breeders. -
1t kH0r$ also that in all the history of
the game from its maturity, over two
decades ago, until now, has its estate in
tins region been so low as now
The NcwS may look for cause within
the region, within the region teams,
among the regions Hatirc players, and
it Will find none.
But the cause is "A bantling, about two
years old, lives, moves and has its being
in Cumberland
The N""S complains of the Piedmont
papers also. 1t seems the Piedmontese
do not understand the NfWS' 'ioking'
as "friendly."
But Piedmont has nothing to com
plain of. When Midland was forced
ont by Cumberland high pressure, Frost
burg, without managing representa-
tive, still couldn t get in. When Iona
coming was forced ont, same pressure,
the Cumberland Piedmont combine still
kept FroStburg ont of a share of exec
utive power.
Hence, the natural, latent, Friendly"
feeling expressed in the following senti-
ment discriminating against Midland,
Homecoming and Frostburg:
The Daily NccS joins with them r'Pulp-
VILE rooterS } in the anticipation that Pied
mont Will again win a majority of its games
this season.
Why, O why should the Ne,rs become
liner with the "Pulpville rooters''
in the anticipation" that Frostburg,
Midland and Homecoming will again lose
ga majority of games this season ~
What have FroStburg, Midland and
Homecoming done to provoke this Gun
friendly spirit"
The JOURNAL, assuming that the NerS
cannot reply, calls upoN Keno" for ex-
PLANTATION next week, after Frostburg
finds ont who are going to reopen the
paving cases.
