ROWLAND OFFERS
FRANCHISE HERE
Dubuque, After Repeated Ap-
peals for Support, Fails
With Adequate Response.
LEAGUE Is ON LAST LEGS
Many Had Expected Break Would
Come Before Fourth-Long
Jumps and High Salaries.

The ThreeEye league did manage
to survive the Fourth of July. but, as
has been predicted by many knowing
the impracticability Of continuing the
organization with its present makeup,
and with payrolls that would crimp the
exchequers of leagues of greater pat
ronage, the inevitable seems in sight.
Dubuque has thrown up the sponge,
and is the first to surrender its fran
chise. Others, II is believed, will fol-
low suit before another two weeks
passes. The Dubuque team played in
Davenport yesterday, dropping both
games on the matinee card. Manager
] Clarence Rowland was in communica-
ton with some of his Rock Island
baseball friends.

few of US held up the team through
giving winter carnivals, dances. etc.
The returns from these enterprises,
with the gate receipts, in former sea
sons, managed to see US through the
schedule. This has been the toughest
year We have had, despite that We
have probably the fastest team the
city has had since we have been iden-
titled with the Three-Eye. | have
nothing but the kindliest feeling for
Dubuque. | have gone 80 far as to
sacrifice my personal interest by offer
ing to turn the franchise over to the
local people there. | have not been
taken up on this, and therefore am
ready TO move. | prefer coming to
Rock Island. If the Three-Eye is to
continue, believe me, we will have TO
make it more compact and find some
way of holding down the payroll. The
ThreeEye suffered its severest blow
when Rock Island dropped out this
season"
SAME OLD FACES

yesterday said:

REGATTA FINISH
Nine Lonely Men View Last OF
Races Of Of Davenport
Shore Saturday.
RELIANCES WITHDRAWN
Mississippi Valley Power Boat Asso-
citation Concludes Annual
Session.

Viewing motor boat races while a
halfhearted drizzle is dripping upon
terra firma is the unanimous notion OF
nine men of zero in entertainments.
These nine men were the only and
lonely witnesses of the closing races
in the Mississippi Valley Power Boat
association regatta of the Davenport
shore Saturday afternoon and the
scene along the river bank was as diff
ferent from that OF the two previous
Afternoons as is the night from day.
Not only was the gallery OF spectators
nearly minus quantity, but the boats
which were in the last Of the races
were Of comparatively mediocre calibre
in consideration OF the boats which
had competed in other events. The
two Reliances were withdrawn by the
owner Commodore J. S. Blackton. Of
Brooklyn, for the commodore wanted
10 leave a little change for other
freight bills beside his own and then
he had enough loving cups 70 stock his
New York home from cellar 10 attic.
HANDICAP II CLOSE
And so with $500 unoccupied grand
stand seats staring them in the face,
the motor enthusiasts finished the re-
gatta before the judges, newspaper
men and others who were at the meet
perforce. The Leading Lady and Wig
wan II, two OF the better class boats,
competed in the handicap event The
Lady finished eight seconds ahead Of
the Wigwam, demonstrating that the
judges knew their business when they
slipped a handicap of five minutes TO
the Lady. The race was for half the
scheduled course OF 10 miles and the
Wigwam wagged around it in l7:46.
Other races We're cut down in length
as well. The one-cylinder race was
Won by the SpiZbub, Joe Kelso Belle

ley's Siren took second money. In the
family boat race, the Siren took first
and the Dix. c. Kennedy. Davenport,
was next.

And it promises to be a long rest.
Should Rowland and Plass decide on
moving the club to Rock Island in the
event of continued indifference here,
the ThreeEye league will be a COM
pact circuit
IN COLD FOR YEARS.
Dubuque will be on. in the cold for
a number of years at least, with the
one possibility of later getting into a
new organization made up of Iowa cit
les of which Waterloo and Cedar Rap
ids would be figured. Overtures to
have Davenport or Rock Island leave
| the ranks of the Three-Eye league
would in all probability fall short, as
a new organization made UP Of cities
| of 10000 population or under could
not hope for a class B rating, and the
article Of ball would, of course, be of
an inferior grade. The advertising
value and entertainment Three-Eye
balls offers a city like Dubuque must
/ be taken into consideration while sub
mitting this cold turkey proposition
Can Dubuque really afford to loose its
club? Will new heads ever show the
fighting spirit of the old directors, a
Rowland or a Plass? That both of
the latter promoters are in demand is
well known.
HUSTLERS STOP HERE.
"On the previous trip to Davenport
it is known to be a positive fact that
the business men of Rock Island and
the fans of this city displayed their
eagerness to have the Hustlers with
them, even going as far as to offer
special hotel rates to Rowland and his
club with the result that the Du-
buquers put up in that city.
The Davenporters had no scruples
in trying TO induce Clarence to move
at that time. Why don't you go across
the river, Clarence?' Is the way the
newspapers of that city put it. There
you are stuck away up in Dubuque or
the land of nowhere, while Rock Is
land can offer you a big guarantee
right from the start, a substantial at
tendance and the best ball park in the
league. They want baseball over
there, and you're foolish not to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity
GIVEN CHANCE.
Instead of this Rowland and Plass
got their heads together and figured
out that it would be best to give their
Dubuque friends every bit of leeway
Through the columns of the newspa,
pers here, they first implored and
then threatened. The old guard was
always on hand, but the thousands
of others turned deaf ear to the ap
peal of the promoters"
