SPORTING.
Still Sucking Sour Grapes.

In discussing Twin State league affairs
recently the Keene Sentinel said; Last
season Brattleeboro had the most money
to spend and spent some of it. other
teams could not compete. This led to
unrest. This season, no matter what
teams compose the league, there should
be a distinct understanding about salary
limit, and everything of that sort, and
the rule should be lived up to-
This belated wall is another evidence
of sour grapes. Keene started the season
last wear with a much more expensive
team than Brattleboro, probably with
the most expensive team in the league.
Keene has never explained it's system of
financing by which it could add several
players to it's pay roll after 1t had reach
ed the limit in payments. Brattleboro
, was not nearly up to the limit until the
last two weeks of the season and the
published statement of the local asso-
cations receipts and expenses shows
that the average expenditure for players
salaries for the entire season was con-
siderably below $3.50 a week. The other
clubs, SO far as we know, have never
made a public statement Of their ex-
penses. We will wager a red apple that
Keene spent more money for players than
Brattleboro.
