ROCKS AHEAD
OF "BIC FOUR
Chester Teams Have Trouble
Getting Together Since VIII
mingtOn Clubs Withdrew

That big Four" league which Chester
was going to organize so rapidly after du-
Pont and Riverview, Of this city. had
withdrawn from the proposed Chester
Wilmington combination thereby dispos-
ing OF big Six is not materializing as
rapidly as the Chester fans had expected.
Since last Wednesday night two attempts
have been made in Chester to organize the
Big Four" but the league is not organ
lied and there are indications that it win
not be.
When dupont and Riverview withdrew
from the proposed Chester Wilmington
league TO continue in the New Castle
County League the Chester team manag-
ers remarked that the dropping out of the
Wilmington teams would not interfere
with the Chester plans and that the big
Four" league would be organized with
out a ripple of dissatisfaction"
But there have since been so many rip
pies on the Chester baseball pond that the
disturbance may deprive the fans there OF
organized ball between the big Four
this season. Had Wilmington remained in
the league there might be another story
TO tell.
Here in Wilmington there is no discord
among baseball managers. The County
League the local big Five" will be or
ganized tonight and arrangements made
for opening the season.
