That the chances for league base
ball in Tulsa and other oklahoma
cities will be either enliVened or kill
ed at the meeting of magnates sched-
uled for this city next Monday, seems
certain. The fact that Doe" Shive-
~ is trying to get Tulsa and Musko-
gee in on a league in which several
Kansas towns are to be represented,
is not looking any too good for local
baseball prospects The more sound
headed baseball men in oklahoma
reason it out that the organizers ol
a new league should take warning
from the fate of the Western asSo-
citation, In which the jumps were too
long for the clubs to make even eX-
penses. Short jumps is the only so
luton Of the baseball problem in this
section.

held in the parlors of the Robinson

that each one will be ready to take

and he will build handsome ball

/ is being taken in the league is shown
by the dozens OF letters being receiv-
ed daily by Henry Beckley, Mr..

all parts of the country. They are
from baseball players and managers
and from fans who want to see the

that MIR Page would have anything
