Allentown means to have a baseball
team in 1912-s professional one, too.
The fans of that city are determined
on that point They will endeavor to
enter the New York State league and.
failing in that. mean to strain every
cord to secure a Tri-State league
franchise. A meeting Of enthusiasts
was held last Monday evening at
which time temporary organization
was effected and plans made for the
campaign. Get q team" is the motto
and the fans say they will do it or
forever remain silent in the baseball

Max S. Erdman. one of the best
known of Allentown fans, was chosen
| secretary of the organization. He was
instructed 90 communicate with John

! Association of Professional Minor
! League Baseball clubs, and advise that
official of Allentown's desire. A score
or more of citizens were present at
the meeting and every one stated his
willingness 20 contribute toward the
| financial success of a team in the
event that a franchise is secured
The proposition TO enter an outlaw
league was voted down. It raised a
deal of discussion. how ever, but the
final opinion was that Allentown had
had enough of disorgauized baseball
Many of the fans present spoke at the
meeting. Joseph German said that a
ball club is the best advertising me-
dium any city can have. II believe
in getting into the best league it. is
possible to enter" he declared
In the event that a franchise can
be obtained in either of the two
leagues mentioned the Allentown fair
p grounds will be secured as a baseball
? park. It is estimated that the race
, track enclosure could be improved and
made into a suitable playing field for
t an expenditure of less than $1,000
