new LIMIT IS
ABOUT ASSURED
$1,000 Tri-State Pay Roll Has
But Little OppOSi-
ton
EXPECT OLD CHICKS
IN THE GAME AGAIN

There will be little trouble. 1t is
expected. in putting through the S1,o00
salary limit when .he representatives
OF the Tri-State League meet at Har-
risburg on next Thursday afternoon.
All six clubs In the League are on
a sound financial basis and there is
but little opposition so far as is known
to the salary raising proposition and
that may be overcome before the
meeting by a little concession.
With the exception Of York every
team in the league has a playing man
ager. Heckert gets his salary sitting
on the bench depriving his team of a
good player but he is valuable man
there and has always been in the run
ming. He is opposed 10 the raise. II is
said. but he will not oppose It strong
enough TO kill g.
Harrisburg was a prime mover in
the raiser first arguing that the salary
of the playing manager should be
taken from the salary limit The
$500 limit would give managers a
greater headway in signing up men.
Wilmington viii not oppose the ad-
vance.
One OF the most interesting things
that will happen when the league
representatives meet will be opening
bids for the players who we're on the
reserve lists of Reading and Chester.
Sealed bids for the several players are
being sent to President Carpenter and
they will be opened In the improved
manner when the representatives get
together The players. OF course, viii
20 TO the highest bidder None OF the
Tri-state clubs are overly rich and
there will be wide variance OF bids.
Managers are not caring to disclose
At this stage of the game who they
are bidding on. either. Reading and
Chester will get some money for re-
serve players. but they Will not make
a fortune
Bringing back Chester and Reading
is a faraway proposition and not even
considered at this time II was hard
luck to lose Reading. one Of the best
baseball cities In the country. but they
could not get the funds there and Il

would have been a tailender and not
even a contender. That would tend to
reduce the spirit Of the game II is
better to have, the way II looks now,
six well-bunched clubs than eight OF

Arrested here by Detectives Lowry
