any voice In the matter. the schedules
that Will be submitted at the Fort
Wayne meeting on Wednesday. will
never be adopted. Copies Of the
schedules were received at baseball
headquarters yesterday and Wheeling
was certainly given rotten" deal.
10 use n slang expression. These
schedules give the Smokes Fourth oil
July and Decoration day at home, but
they finish the season by playing IS
games abroad, which Is bitterly op-
posed by the magnates here, and OF
course by the fans.

( ha, Western league club. who stated
that Catcher Agnew. whom the local
owners purchased, refused to report
and that he would trade thief catcher
named Reeves and a third sacker
named Terrell. for the player. The
deal was Immediately accepted.
Terrell has a good record and should
have no trouble making good here
II he does make good he will add a
tower OF strength TO the local club
for Wheeling is without a promising
third sacker. However. no chances
are being taken and the local owners
will try to land another third base
man during their stay in Fort Wayne
In % games played with the Omaha
club last season, Terrell batted .22a
and fielded above the 500 mark Then
he was farmed TO York. OF the Nebras
ka State league where he played in

great confidence in the Omaha man.
