"A tickets, to be sold for $40. will
probably be placed on sale by
the Newark Club shortly. At present
the Rochester Club sells a SINH. ar
booklet, containing twenty-five general
admission tickets for the above price.
The fans in the Flower City lake adj
vantage OF the offer IN great style. and
h Offices of the club were swarmed
with applicants the first day they were
placed on sale last week. The Rochester
Club tried the booklet plan as an ex-
pertinent last year, and 1t was q pro-
nounced success. 1t does away with
the standing lin line idea, and Is much
more convenient for the fans.
Ordinarily the a ns would get twenty
tickets for $40, I'M they get two extra
by the Rochester method. Poe McGin-
nifty has not decided how many extra
tickets he will give. but it Is more than
probable that he will be a bit more
liberal than the Rochester manage
ment.
Joe did not know that the Rochester
Club had been placing these tickets on
sale, and was surprised when told
about it, for he had been devolving in
his mind a plan to do the same thin :

the proposed game to be played at
Rome, Ca, by the Rochester and To-
ronto teams, said yesterday: 81 do not
think 1t fair to the other six clubs of
the Eastern League for these two teams
to play this exhibition game. 1t will
cheaper the game, In my opinion. Three
years ago Cincinnati and Brooklyn
played a game before the season opened
and the newspapers all over the
try roasted the W clubs. l nave not
heard from the Toronto Club regarding
my opposition, but the Rochester Club
says that it will play the game In spite
of me. The plan to exchange batteries
will not alter the situation from my
viewpoint"

the team which developed Mowry,
Meyer and many other stars. The
