WAYCROSS PLANNING FOR

In speaking Of the Empire State
League and the part Waycross Will
play in it, the Journal Of that city
says:
Despite the lukewarmness OF. some
baseball fans and the apparent effort
to divide interest in baseball in Way
cross it has become certain that Way
cross will have organized baseball
this season and will figure prominent
" in the Empire State league.
Men who are able to handle the
proposition successfully are taking
keen interest in baseball now and it
goes without saying that they win see
that Waycross is right up to the min
ute when playing time arrives.
The retirement Of James Sinclair
as president OF the league gives Way
cross a man who can and will get
Waycross ready for baseball and it
is almost a safe bet that the team
Waycross will have in the Empire viii
have to be reckoned with by the pen
nant winner of the 1913 season.
Good grounds will be secured at
once and inasmuch as the locations
under consideration are within easy
reach of the heart of the city the at
tendance at games will not be cut
down because of trouble experienced
in reaching the grounds "
