Now that the Tri-State circuit is

Carpenter is hopeful for a good sea-

Carpenter predicts a close race for
the pennant and a fine article OF

Most of the clubs will start the
season with about % players each,
but the number will be pared down
to IA for the season. This year,
more than at any previous time, can
didates for the teams are practicing
