BREWING TROUBLE
WHERE NO TROUBLE
ACTUALLY EXISTS
CONTINUED From First Page.)

Ing 10 win the pcnnant next year, Ell
more Helms VIII once moro. deliver
that speech we wrote for him several
seasons ago. likewise telling OF the
eeason IN which lie batted and felded
coo in the Virginia League; w. Il.
bradley will take out OF cold storage
one of his choice yarns and foist it
on those who must listen; Colonel
Stonewall Jackson Briggs, from Ports
mouth. sub, will exhibit some selections
OF unestimated age--in fact they'll al
be there and talk 1t over. not forget
ting Captain Denny Parkinson. After
it's over-thc business end OF it
they'll feed and froiic The 1913 Nir-
sina League season will he officially
dead, and this advance story thorough
~ covers the meeting.
Blu; n meeting was TO be held. and
certain close ana admiring friends OF
Billy Harmon were willing to take ad-
vantage o. even this Kind OF meet
ing 10 show their loyalty 10 William
and their disposition TO honor him.
That's part OF the game, and it's the
best joke the season his produced. II
It had come earlier. II might have
been turned into the box Office. Billy
Harmon is one CT the most iikoble
fellows In the world He has a CHEEKY
smile. warm handclasp ana has been
more or less Identified with baseball
for some timc. He's tho same Billy
Harmon who successfully conducted me
late Tidewater League 10 its grave.
The election OF a president, under
tire. construction OF The Virginia League
constitution made by the National
Board of Arbitration in the Williams
fight cannot take place until the an
nual meeting of the league usually
held In November, SO that the talk OF
n successor TO Mr. Boatwright At this
time is premature, 10 say the least.
However. It has come about. and
Impartial discussion is probably not
amiss.
Just Ono Club for Harmon.
1t is understood that Mr.. Boatwright
has said that II. opposition to him
ours. he Will not be candidate. W.
B. Bradley, secretary or the Richmond
club is quoted as saying that next 20
Mr. Eoatwright he is for Mr.. Harmon.
That may or may not be true, The
teams supposed to espouse Mr.. Han
mons cause arc Newport News and
Portsmouth. Richmond Will vote for
Bcatwiight. That's wha. Secretary
bradley told us. Petersburg will vote
the same way Norfolk. Mr.. Hannons
home town. will vote for Boatwright;
Roanoke will vote for Boatwright. and
there is grave doubt whether Forts
mouth Will vote for anybody but Boat
wright That leaves Newport News
for Harmon. $3.50.
II Ma. Boatwright is properly quot
eS y ne really did say that If any OPP
POSITION 10 him arose he would step
dow. and ont. he 10 doing the Virginia
-ssrve an Injustice. he's doing base
sa1-2 IN Injustice and he's doing him
ssa< AZ INJUSTICE MIR. Boatwright has
DoS made s brilliant president. BY
ShSE we mean that he hasn't offered
any constructive legislation, nor has
re uieddicd III the affairs OF tho In
dtvidual owners. excepting when he
was called upon. lie furnished good
umpires. gave a very good account or
the finances of the league, returned
money TO the directors at tho oud OF
the session, something That hasn't
been done for two or three years. The
sole opposition seems TO he that his
salary is too great ~
