GETS LOW CLASS
(By United Press Leased Wire)

No class c league for w. Fl.
Lucas this year, but it's not his
fault. He has the census man to
blame for having TO drop down to
the ID class. According to the re-
quirements of organized baseball
there must be a Il tai population Of
100000 or over in the cities in
Guided in any league before 1t can
be class c organization, and the
census reports Just issued by the
Unoted States government show
that the six cities of the new
Union association will fall several
thousand short of that population.

While long lines of fight fans
ranged themselves in front of the
windows at Blot's arena today,
painters were busily engaged in eff
facing the work of some practical
joker who during the night had
painted out Blet's name on the sign

Blot did not discover the "out-
rage" until almost time for the
fight between Frayne and Hogan
to start. Blot was inclined to take
the joke seriously and was for re-
porting the matter to the police,
but finally the humor of the situa-
ton forced itself upon him and a
rush order for painters was given.

Burns at third, catching the runner
off the base by dozen feet He
then struck out the third man and
the game was over.
Back in 1904, Tommy Connolly,
the umpire, declared that the Amer
lean league would have to rescind
the foul strike rule because the
fans demanded more batting and
the rule had caused falling off in
this department. And now, SIX
years later, the foul strike hasn.
even been amended and there is
a movement on to increase batting.
