Importance Of Race.
Probably the race In which the George

great shortness of breath, smothering

BRIEF NOTES OF LEAGUE
Another League, Known as Missouri
State, is to be Formed
Shannon Makes Great
Predictions.

Papers of the circuit contain cheer
ing news about the Central Associa-
ton outlook for the coming season and
the general prediction is that the
fans will be treated to a much better
article of ball than they have previous
ly enjoyed. One of the optimistic
writers is the Burlington Gazette dop-
ester and he is always generous about
recognizing that venerable old man
ager, PA" Belt. Here Is the Gazette's
latest:
Judging from the extraordinary eff
forts being made to secure talent by
the managers of the Central Associa-
ton baseball clubs, it looks as if the
league will be about twice as fast next
season as ev r before. Manager Geier
is making careful selections and he
can be counted upon to have team
up in the race. He win try out nice
bunch of youngsters, but he has also
signed some good men of known repu-
tation as foundation for his club.
Manager Egan of course will give
Ottumwa a nifty organization He is
always there with god men. Man.
ager Belt of Keokuk seems dete miE-
ed to win the pennant. He has been
instructed to get the men to vim the
games and he is certainly afte them,
His list SO far sounds like steerage
roll call of Bremen emigrants. Here
are few samples: Ed'ick, Flick, Jae-
ger. Sensendach, Reichle and Wetzel.
Monmouth will have good club, al.
though they are not saying much over
there, while Manager Hough of Gales
burg is looking around. Down at Han
nibal many of the players of last
seasons club will be on hand and
they look good enough for anybody.
At Quincy, the fans are pinning
their hopes in Babe Meyers and he is
expected to deliver the goods Taking
it all the way through it appears as ii
the fans will be treated to some great
baseball next season.
Although Waterloo is no longer in
the Central, news about Frank Boyle's
efforts are always of interest. He has
signed Tommy Searles and thinks he
will make good
