TT Joe McGinnity's plans are success
full, April 20, the opening day of the
Eastern League season, will be a
civic holiday in Newark. The Iron
Mar" will shortly petition Mayor
Haussling to proclaim the day a holi-
day. 1t is not unlikely hat he will be
successful.
President Jacob Stein, of the Buffalo
club, has succeeded in having Mayor
Thurman, of Buffalo. set aside May s,
the opening day in the West, as a holi-
day, and every other magnate will
make an attempt to have his club do
the same. 1t is almost certain that
Rochester will have the date and Sam
Lichenhein, of the Montreal club, will
do his best to have May s set aside by
the mayor of Montreal for the day
when Newark will pry off the lid in
Beaver town.
AS it is, the day is now practically a
half-hoiiday, and Joe McGinnity wants
to make this years opening a special
event. 1t is more than probable that
his plea will be granted.
Mcdonald 10 Buffalo.
President Jacob Stein, of the Buffalo
club, closed a deal at the Baltimore
meeting whereby Third Baseman Eddie
Mcdonald goes to the Buffalo club.
Larry Schfafiy. of the Troy club, was
hot after Mcdonald, but several East
ern League clubs would not waive. He
also announced on his return to Buffalo
that the Zeal whereby Bud Sharpe goes
to the Bisons had been closed. That
Sharpe would play first for Buffalo was
AOA1tY-fa~Al1r - IL wv n =
month ago.
Joe McGinnity says hat more BUSH
ness was transacted in the two-day
session at Baltimore than was ever
done under P. T. Powers's regime In a
week. The results bear out Joe's state
ment.
Newspapers all over the country are
commenting most favorably on the
post-season series adopted by the East
ern League, which was suggested in
the Evening STAR. 1t is said that the
American Association will not hesitate
long before doing the same thing.
