VENESS PROPOSES
 NEW CITY LEAGUE

During the course of his remarks at the banquet of the Yost players last evening MT. A. E. Veness also referred to their plans for the future. What a pity it was that the Industrial Lea que had so lamentably failed in living up to it's objects and principles as well as to its constitution. especially to that one of it's objects which was to develop and encourage a feeling of good fellowship between not only the working members of the factories one toward the other, but also between the employees. officials and proprietors, bringing each closer together, and the other and providing an oppor- tunity wherein they could make com mon cause with one another.
 He was a strong believer in. and would be strong supporter of any action toward the organizing of real Industrial League. so organized and constituted that the miserable picker ings which had existed to such a large extent in che present league since it's inception, should be avoided and could work people and our factory officials and proprietors assembled together on our recreation fields indulging in and enjoying together game such as base ball on our Saturday half holidays. and he trusted that such a good work started in the way it had been by the Yost boys should not be allowed to die.
 He thought that a good league could be organized without in any way tres passing upon the present Industrial League. There were a number of other factories employing large numbers of work people. who were well able to form and support good teams. espec- iallv such factories as the Bryant Elec- tric Co.,, and American Graphophone Co.,. in our own West End. He further believed that the three leading organ iZations of the Factory League would be pleased to join such a league; that with six such teams playing good clean ball. thousands of our work people | would attend the games and enjoy the recreation.

HAYNES FOOTBALL
 CAREER ENDED

Anthony Haines of Rockford H.. will never again be seen on the Yale varsity eleven, for he will not be able to play again this year owing to in juries and he will graduate from Yale this year.
 The injury from which Haines is suffering is a wrenched knee, and wa was the result of a tackle in the Syra- cuse game that laid the big halfback out, and which crippled him so that he had to be carried off of the field and taken to his home in a hack. It was thought that he could get back into the game again, but the water gathered so rapidly on his injured operate to draw it off. AS result he will not be able to walk without crutches for a week or two. and then the season will be pretty well over. Haines has been a hard luck'' man during both years of his varsity career at Yale. Last year he was badly in- jured at practice, hurting his hip, but he returned to the game and was end in the Harvard game, playing a great game. Still, he spent a large part, of the season in the Yale infirmary or in his room from his injury. He was making good this year as a back, be- ing one. of the heaviest men out for places in the backfeld and also being good punter. Although there are a number of very promising candidates on the team out for the backield this year. 1Haines will be missed as he was a very steady and reliable player.

Wind Up of Baseball Season
 in Blaze of Glory.

The parting gun of a most strenuous baseball campaign was fired. last even ing, when the baseball team represent ing the Union Typewriter Co.,, the of ficials and foremen of the factory, and a few invited guests, were toasted and feted at the festive board in Irwin Arcade restaurant. Landlard Irwin can well be proud of the repast he set before the boys. for they thoroughly enjoyed it and at the close gave the proprietor three Iusty cheers. The boys had the spacious restaurant to them selves, and took solid possession. Be- sides the spread, other good things followed for the players. The spells of war for the season of 1909 were divid- ed among the various players in checks while there were presentations of gold, cups and other prizes.
 The mastication of the viands be- gan shortly after 8 o'clock and was sat down to by the following: F. A. Burgess. Herbert Johnson. Gardner Nelson, J. E. McKenna, Clarence Towne, Clarence Brewer, H. M. Rob inson, M. J. Clabby, F. Rudolph, Harry Cooper Fred Willard. Charles Schaef- fer. Richard Muller. Thomas O'Brien.. F. Coult. c. Brewer, the officials of the company and the following mem bers of the team: George Wilson, Frank White, Thomas Keenan. Amos Johnson Deacon Rohrback Michael Smalling John Bowling. William Reg emery. ''Kid' Donnelly. Thomas Whal- ley William Dubee, Thomas Small wood Fred Wargo, Al. Christe, Scorer George Raferstranger, Manager Ed ward Lynch.
 M J. CIabby, chairman of the base ball committee of the factory and toastmaster of the evening, explained the reasons for the gathering to dis tribute the spells of war. and to make plans for the future. He then intro- duced Hugh M. Robinson, secretary and treasurer of the baseball commit tee. MT. Robinson has efficiently served the players for the past two seasons in both offices with marked success. MT. Robinson stated that there were checks of $50 for each member of the team, and that in addi- tion there was a substantial sum in the treasury to start next season. The toastmaster then called upon Herbert l.. Johnson to present the battery members of the team with their due share Pitchers Frank O. White Amos Johnson and Deacon Rohrba ok. and Catcher Wilson each stepped forward and responded ably with their little piece. To Harry Cooper was allotted the honor of distributing the checks to the infielders, First Baseman Mike Smalling. Second Baseman John Dowl- ing, Shortstop Tom Keenan, and Third Baseman Bill Regnery. Mir Robinson in few witty renoarks presented the

shares to the outfielders, Bill Dubee, Tom Smallwood, Tom Whalley, and 1'Kid''i Donnelly. Mr.. Robinson also presented Manager Ed. Lynch with his share of the spells. MT. Lynch in re- ply reviewed. the record of the team for the past season, stating that 29 games had been played in all and that 19 of them. were victories. He had been represented in baseball for the past eight years as manager of vari- ous teams, and considered the Yost second to one. :. If called upon again to lead the team he would gladly ac- cept.
 Toastmaster Clabby then called on Daniel Walker, one of the, guests of the evening. MT. Walker presented F.. Oliver White with $10 for the best batting average; $5 to George Wilson, who stole the greatest number of bases; $5 to John Bowling for making the most runs; and $5 to Tom Keenan for gathering the greatest number of bases on balls. Following this last presentation Tom Keenan was called on as captain of the team. He said in part:
 "The success of the team was due to the fine cooperation displayed by the men, as there were no petty jealousies. desire to express my thanks to the players. To the baseball committee which labored hard and untiringly for our success, I am sincerely grateful. 10 edll liOSe WIO dluSO us, III Ilo lllIlO way to have a representative team on the diamond. many praises are due. It would be ungrateful to close with out saying a few words about the men who enabled us to have one of the best baseball diamonds of the city. To say that we appreciated the support ex- tended is to pnt it mildly. To the of ficials of the factory we all are very grateful
 The gift of the evening was hand some engraved silver loving cup stand ing 12 inches in height, the gift of A. tory, to the Ican who had secured the best batting average, Frank Oliver White. This was the cup which was originally intended for the leading bat ter in the Industrial League. MT. Whites speech of acceptance was most appropriate.
 Manager Lynch of the team in be- half of the players presented George Raifstranger, the official scorer for the club, $10 in gold for his efficient ser vices.
 A. E. Vaness, superintendent of the factory, said he cherished the hope that he would always remain with the boys. He was proud of the team, their record. and the stand they so nobly took during the season.. The boys had played good ball and had strong fol- lowing, which patronage they deserv- ed. All were sorry in a sense that the team had to withdraw from the Industrial League. There was no other alternative if they were to re- tain their dignity and respect. It in- deed was most unfortunate dispute. What was the greatest of all was the correct position the team held when they withdrew from the league, IA wins and but two defeats. The team has shown marked improvement over that of 1908 when some of the players started in as novices, and finished first at the end of the season. In fact when some of the boys made a hit they did not know how to run to first base.

MT. Veness then spoke on the plans Tor the future He desired the team to enter into some league. Indepen- dent ball was all right but it does not bring out the competition that an or ganization will Next year, with the Tost team as neucleus a league could be formed, having a constitution that would be fair to all.
 The heads of the factories in the city should see that their concern is represented with a team of some kin6, to furnish amusement for their eTn- ployeS on Saturday afternoons. There is room for another strong Industrial League. Out in the West End there is the Bryan Co.,. the Graphophone Co, and the Yost. Then on the East Side there are three teams now represented in the Factory League who would wei come an invitation to join in such an organization. Thentas Sunday ball is allowed the Yost team could join a City League, made up of such teams as tue Newfields. South Ends St. Jo- sephs, North Ends end Orioles. MT. Veness in closing stated that credit ought to be given where credit is due. He desired to thank the young man who made baseball a possibility at the factory He who two years ago came to the officials of the concern and de- sired to place a team in the Industrial League. The project met with the full approval of the officials and he
  ferred to Captain Tommy Keenan who with his knowledge of, baseball and how it should be played, developed a fine team.
 VIis work should not go unappreciat- ed. On behalf of the employees of the concern, principally the young ladies, he presented Captain Tom with handsome morocco wallet containing $50 in gold. He referred to Capt. Tom as the Fred Clarke" of amateur baseball in the Park City as consider ing the material he had to pick from last season and the remarkable result he had attained by bringing the team into first place on the last day, and this season winning 13 out of 15 games in that same league he indeed display ed real baseball ability

Christmas at the Post Office.

Christmas business at thu office
began at the usual early dathNhfn about
ten days before the children's holiday the
foreign money orders showed a steady
increase in volume and amount. Then
came the steady increase of outgoing mail
tor the western states, followed just be.
fore Christmas by sack after sack OF
packages. Some idea of the amount OF
souvenir cards mailed out may be realiz-
ed from the fact that over 10000 one
cent stamps were sold in the five days
just before Christmas. The heaviest mail
of the year arrived Christmas morning
and it was after dinner before the carriers
completed the morning delivery. 1t was
busy week for all the force, but the
decks were cleared every day and in that
way there was no congestion of mail
matter. Compared with previons years
the veteran clerks and carriers at the
office declare the business this year ex-
ceeded all Others in volume.
This was also true of the money order
and register departments, the total
figures showing a marked increase over
past years. The carriers were generously
remembered by their patrons whom they
have so faithfully served the past year
and Henry W. Ellis received gift of SAT
from his route as a recognition of his
many years of service.
