More Clubs VIII Be Added

ST. MARTINS TEAM RETURNS
st. JOseph's Files Application for
Membership, and Efforts Are Being
Made 10 Form a Team in National
Guard-Expect to Make Change of
GrOunds-Edwards President.

The Marquette Baseball League, COM
posed of many of the best young ball
tossers in town. seems 70 have about the
brightest outlook of any of the amateur
leagues Of this city.
Capt Z. G. Edwards, OF the District
National Guard, who last year was
president Of the Marquetters. and viii in
all probability hold the same position
during the coming season. Capt Ed
wards is confident that, with the expert
ence his youngsters gained in the 1906
interleague games, when theytput up an
excellent article of bali against their
older and more experienced rivals. and
from many new acquisitions Of stars
that his team will be second to none in
the city.
Last year the league was composed Of
six clubs-St Vincent St Patrick St
Peter. Trinity. Holy Name, and Immacu-
late Conception. The Holy Name team
only played during the latter part Of the
season, having taken up the franchise Of
St. Martins team. which withdrew on ac-
count Of Observation-Disclosures
Clubs Want to Enter.
At II recent meeting the franchise was
restored to the St, Martin nine, which
should be a strong contender for the flag
next summer. Several Of It's players,
after the club had Withdrawn last season,
joined the Immaculate. and were a big
factor in landing the championship for
that outfit. Among these were "Berine"
Gallagher. who displayed such pitching
ability in the District championship con-
tests. These players viii probably return

in the guard who would add materially 10
the Marquetters' strength.
President Edwards favors the plan to
increase the number of teams. and the
officers viii probably allow more clubs TO
enter.
The question Of good playing grounds is
one which is bothering the officials. The
present field IS located AT Lincoln and
Rhode Island avenues, near St Mary s
Cemetery, which is an inC0nvenient spot
for both the players and the spectators
Efforts VIII be made TO obtain the use Of
the grounds at First and + streets north

JOCKEY CARRIERS INJURIES.
Rider VIII BE Unable to Accept a
Mount for a Week.

New Orleans, Jan. Jockey Garner.
who was injured at the Fair Grounds
recently. cannot ride again for at least a
week. The boy has been severely criti-
Cised on several occasions for rough rid
ing, some persons saying that he was in
timidatlng the other jockeys at Crescent
City. There is no more effective check
on rough riding, however, than an acct
dent to boy who is in the habit of in
dulging in foul tactics, for he usually
loses his nerve and refrains from taking
desperate chances.
Walter Miller was frequently censured
last year for rough riding but he went
through the whole campaign without a
serious accident He appeared to scorn
the idea that any harm could happen 10
him, and at times his riding was both
daring and reckless. Some day, however
Miller may get a fall that viii result IN a
long lay-off Then il is probable that he
viii realize the dangers of race riding
particularly if the safety Of other riders
is not respected by him.
