league with four teams, Ogden, salt

Manager Bert Margctts of last sea

Black of tho Occidcutals bavo been
in the city and are the people di-
rccily behind the new venture. IL is
understood that they wore given CON
siderable encouragement here and that
there is a strong possibility Of such

Whether or not Ogden will 20 into

II will not be An easy matter to
iuduco local business men TO lar
looSc from lnslI money lDT An IN
tcrstatc league. but cf course this city
will always have a few boosters for
such proposition. The committee
which has undertaken the raising of
$1,000 for the state leagues Of 1905
and 1910 found il a difficult task. and
many of the baseball gossipcrs, there
fore, smile at the idea Of trying to
raise several thousand.
Margctts and Black have assured
state league boosters here that they
will be able TO get a park in Salt
Lake City, and that Murray will be
thcro as strong AS heretofore. Black
expects TO bring to Salt Lake even
stronger team than even his 1910 Oc
cidentals, which have since held their
own against tho best big league com
binations on the coast.
