PORTSMOUTH WILL
BE ON TIE MAP
Company Takes Over Team
and Franchise.
River City will be In the Ohio
State League Next
Year.

For some time there has been
some doubt in the minds OF the fans
and the management of the Ohio
state League as to whether Ports
mouth would be able to hold her
franchise in the league for another
year.
Pcrthmouth broke into the Ohio
State league in just the same way
that Marion broke into the Ohio
and Pennsylvania a year ago and as
is always the case under the circum-
stances, the team is rather weak and
enthusiasm, which Is so essential TO
good support of a ball team, Is
lacking. This has proved just as
true of Porthmouth this year as IL
did with Marion last season. With
the forming-of the new league this
year, Marion became one OF the
strongest cities in the league.
A deal was consummated, Satur-
day which insures Portsmouth
staying in the league next year. A
, company of business men OF the riv-
er city has been formed and the
franchise taken over. The dead has
been o. KID by President Quinn and
all preliminaries have been arranged
/ to the satisfaction of all concerned
