of the firm of Renaud, Manning u
Scruggs. and is doing an immense
business in automobile accessories.
A complete line of automobile
eouipment is carried and fills the new
store room to its capacity. Mr.. Man
ming has established firm footing
in the commercial life of the border
town during his six months residence
there and as a tribute to his real
worth to the community he was re-
Gently elected to the directorship OF

ming rendered great service to the

the praise of the Calexico spirit in
town boosting. This spirit will give
Calexico more than twenty miles OF
paved streets this coming summer
which is certainly "going some" for q
town of its size.

Frank Menke's
Sporting Letter

New York. March 9.-Up in New
Britain, Conn.,, far removed from the
turmoil and strife of baseball, there's
q man with a dark mustache, with
soft brown eyes and hair that is gray
ing at the ends, who smiles all DAY
tho smile that one smiles when one is
happv and contented and at peace with
all the world.
The man who smiles is Tom Lynch,
once prexy Of the National league, now
proprietor of prosperous theatre III
the little Connecticut town.
Tom. as many will remember, was
hooted out of the National league last
December after serving 1T for four
wears. because the pugnacious moguis
decided they wanted ian able man to
ably handle the affairs of the league.
1t hurt Toms pride when he was
showed out into the cold cruel world
with nothing to warm him but his
feeling of Indignation toward his for
mar bosses. but Tom hasn't minded
the cold much lately. In fact, he's
ouite clad now that he was showed,
and thereby saved the hours of agony
that Governor John X. Tener, has sue
cessor. has endured during the past
ten weeks or so.
ssWhat do you think of the present
stata of affairs in the National
league?' Lynch was asked.
Il have no opinion to express, was
the reply. 81 am out of the league,
and / feel, therefore, that | have no
right to express my sentiments con-
cerning what has happened since was
supplanted by Governor Tener-
seThe ousting Of Murphy was good
thing for the leaguesand for baseball
in general, wasn't it?
you'll have to excuse me, returned
Imperial Valley press., 1914-03-09

LYNCH al have no statement to make.
Nv attitude toward the National
league was expressed to the magnatess
on the dav that | was let out and
Gov. Tener elected in my place. At.that
tip,e told the magnates that | hoped
thov would conduct themselves with
as much dignity as they expected from
their new leader. And | also tod
them that | hoped they would De
help. not a hindrance, TO him..
I'm closing, l said that wished the
National league every success: meant
II then and I still mean it. l was IN
the service of the National league for
MANY wears. / owe much to the Ma
tional league. That they should de-
nose me as president and put someone
else in nv place is their right. Whv

cause they exercised that right?
AZ was in baseball nearly all my
life and baseball became part of my
life To be out of it is a bit hard,
hut 7 an, happier now than | was
for the past few years. have no
troubles or worries. / am my own
boss. | do not have to take dictation
from anvine. nor do / have to bear
the .brunt of criticism"
The National league magnates have
come to the conclusion that the $685.
600 annual salary they agreed to pay
Governor Tener has been wise IN
vestment. Tener is signed up for four
wears, but will not draw any salary
| for 1914. as he will be on the payroll
of the state of Pennsylvania until the
end of the year.
Serving the first year without pay
and getting s25,00O for each of the
three following years means that Ten.
er's yearly salary for four years will
average only S19,750. And the mag
mates feel right now that Tener's lit
lie stunt of placing the skids under
Mister Murphy and then showing Mis-
er Murphy into the discard is well
worth the total money they will pay

Norweeians Going South

Christiania, March 9.-Emigration
from Norway has taken a strong turn
to Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico re-
gions of the United States, according
to government report issued here to-
day. Heretofore Norwegians have,
with but few exceptions, emigrated to
Wisconsin, Minnesota, the Dakotas
and the Pacific northwest, but the
trend is now said to be southwark. The
Norwegian Mexican gulf steamship
line has just greatly increased its
capital to provide facilities for the
new traffic.

Tener for The four years of his SER
vice. -
Lvnch's salary was $4,000 and when
William Baker, president of the Phil
hes. proposed Tener as Lynch's sue
cessor. some of the magnates were
AGAINST the idea because they figured
that $4,000 was too much muchness
in the way of salary. Baker, however,
pleaded Tener's case, pointing out that
Tener would prove to be a second
Moses and would lead the league out OF
chaos into the promised land.
.sNo one will regret paying Tener
the $4,000 salary" Baker argued.
And now those who once opposed Ba-
ker's candidacy of Tener fully agree
with him in what he said.
