APPOINTS COMMITTEE
Question viii be Put Up to the Com
mittee Of Twenty-Five
Season Financial
Success.

Whether or not there will be kec-
kuk team in the Central Association
next year or not is a matter that is
yet to be definitely settled. but there
can hardly remain any question as to
the attitude OF the fans. If the spirit
of enthusiasm that prevailed at the
annual meeting of the baseball as
sociation in the superior court room
last night can be taken as true in
dication of public sentiment in this
matter there can be no doubt that
there will be keokuk club in the
race for the 1914 pennant. 1t might
lie added that this enthusiasm just
referred to was not the kind that
flashes In the pan and is heard from
no more. 1t was the emphatic kind
that gets results.
The financial report was most en-
couraging. 1t was by far the best
that has ever been read at the close
OF the season while Keokuk has been
member of the C. A. 1t showed a
s balance of close to 500 In the bank
with which to start the season mex!
year At this the expenses this year
we're above the average. In reading
the report, President Baker explain
ed that the receipts during the cele
bration and the money received from
the sale of players were largely re
sponsible for the financial success o.
the club this season.

season last year, and this was recall
ed. Reports of other years were
compared to this one and 1t was
thought by those present that a more
favorable report had never been read
at the annual meeting.
Mr. Baker then called for express
sions of opinion as to what should be
done next season and as. to whether
or not Keokuk should try to remain
in the league. Several enthusiastic
speeches were made. 1t was pointed
out that if the city dropped out it
might not be able to get back in.
that if 1t were able to get back in it
would probably be only at great ex-
pense. as had been the case at Water
loo and Cedar Rapids.
Committee to Decide question.
After the matter had been discuss
ed at some length, Senator E. P. Nc
Manus made a motion to the effect
that committee OF about twenty five
representative fans of the city be APP
pointed to determine whether or not
the city should remain in the league
next year, to elect club directors for
next year. to handle the finances of
the club, and to make a report of
their work as early as possible. He
added to the motion that there be Inn
parted to the committee the senti-
ment of last nights meeting as be-
ing in favor of the city remaining in
the league.
