meaning other than the drafting Of play

positively that he will place teams in
Reading and Trenton this season
Mr.. Whitman says that Manager Jacob

Marty Hogan. Lancasters new man
agor was at the Harrisburg meeting with
Frank Trout and George Carman. Of the
Lancaster club. Hogan is going to have
a good club and is picking up a number
Of youngsters. This is Hogan's first year
in the Tri-State but he liked the new
5000 limit. claiming that he could get a
good club at that figure. There are some
managers who do not agree with Hogan
and they have been in the league for sew
eral years and know the why's and where

How different the Tri-state meetings
are these days over those OF good old
outiawry In those days money did not
count, hut now long faces on the mag
mates grow even longer when any at
tempt to raise the salary limit a dollar
is made. It's a case OF getting down TO
business principles.
The reelection OF Charles F. Carpenter
to the presidency. secretaryship and
treasurership OF the Tri-State League
was a most complimentary move on the
part of the Tri-State representatives.
President Carpenter has been an efficient
official and has brought the Tri-State to
sound business basis after years OF
