ON PRESIDENT
Each City Also Fights the
Other Over Umpire
Appointments
HOPE TO GET THINGS
STRAIGHTENED SOON

At present, one of the difficulties,
which has been looking the manage
ment of the Inter-City League in the
face, has been the selection of UNI
pires. The management of the two
Chester teams do not favor having a
Wilmington or Chester man as the
arbiter and the head of the organiza-
ton. In this, Managers Sproul and
Doherty are agreed, and Managers
Garrett and Zearfoss, of the Whining
ton teams, feels in about the SAME
spirit.
In a nutshell the situation is that
Wilmington does not care to have the
president of the organization TO come
from Chester, and Chester does not
care TO have the president come from
Wilmington. This matter is an inn
portant one and it is more than prob
able that it will be decided at meet
ing which has been arranged TO be
held in Chester in a few days.
At the meeting to be held in Ches-
ter It is more than probable that tho
schedule will be adopted and several
other minor details looked after, as
well as the election of the president
of the organization. AS far as the
schedule is concerned, it has been so
arranged that the teams of each city
will play in their home city on Ma
mortal Day, Fourth Of July and Labor
Day. The schedule will also provide
for but one game in each city on the
same day.

RULES ADOPTED;
SEASON OPENS APRIL 20

At very enthusiastic meeting OF
the Wilmington Semi-Professional
League. last night much business OF
interest 10 the fans was transacted.
The question OF admitting team to
fill the vacancy caused by the with
drawal OF Prince A. Mousley's River
view team was first considered.
st Peters Holy Name Society, OF
New Castle, and the Rose Hill team
composed of such players as August.
Dugan, McAvaney, Thuitt, Bearmau.
Leib. II. and w. Carr, Patterson and
other stars were both strong after
admission.
II was admitted that both were
strong teams and would prove val
liable assets to the league. but there
were objections to both. st. Peters
control good grounds in New Castle,
but the Wilmington managers thought
the town could not support two first
class teams and that preference be
given the New Castle A. A., they be-
ing already in the league. This will
be New Castles opportunity of put.
ting forth the best possible team in
this section. as it is very likely the
two teams will now consolidate.
Although practically all the Rose
Hill players are stars, it was thought
best not to admit them, as they did
not control grounds.
After consideration il was decided
to carry the present seven teams,
each team taking an of day in turn.
The rules for the present season
we're adopted and the contracts given
to the managers.
The president will now make up the
schedule, the season opening on April
% and closing on September ..
Rather than cause an argument Il
was decided that the team that
should lay off the opening day be de-
cided by lot. When the drawing took
place the unexpected happened; thu
bird of iii luck flew over Manager
Christy's head and fremont. last sea
sons champions, will lay off on April
90.
The next meeting OF the league will
be held the first week in April, when
the schedule will 0e adopted.
