X AN ANTONIO, Texas, Nov. IL
Harmony is the watchword and
- despite the war the 1915 season
Of the Texas baseball league is to be
the most successful in the history Of the
organization. After a stormy season
of the moguls up at Dallas, at which
determined effort was made to close
the gates on the BrOnchos and Senator'S
and to run the league with six clubs,
wiser counsel prevailed, which resulted
in the circuit remaining intact with
pledge from the club owners TO coop
crate with each other for the general
welfare of the league as whole.
The championship dispute between
Houston and Waco was settled IN when
neither team was awarded the honors.
The pennant race was declared tie
The protest on the Labor day farce
pulled off in the Bayou city was
shelved with Galveston's consent which
paved the way to peace"
But-the seven inning games, which
were thrown out of the records, as
announced when the pennant contro-
versy was at fever heat-not word
as to what was done with this matter
has been heard. Nor has 1t been made
clear whether or not Austin is to con-
tinue in the league, although such is
the inference.
Franchise still on Market.
The Broncho boss was not radiant
with smiles upon his return from the
meeting. He said some things with an
unmistakable meaning and gave it out
that the Broncho franchise is still on
the market and would go at the first
good offer.
In the meantime he is mapping out
plans for next season in which he is
getting players in line to give San An
tonic n winner.

players get away" said he so I'm
keeping in touch with these now. 1

THE high school football squad will
be divided next Saturday. One
detachment will journey to Dem

high school team, while the other will
remain here to give battle to the Ala
mogordO high school players. The
Deming boys are expected to put up
their usual hard fast game. The FL
PasO boys may be returned winner,
but they will have to fight for every
thing they get. and the score Will I'M
dOubtedly be close.
The game at Washington park should
he very close and hard fought. The Ell
PasO boys defeated AlamogOrdo in the
last game, but the latter team hopes
to reverse the result of the last game,
and the odds are very much in favor
OF their turning the trick The Ell
Paso team has been somewhat
strengthened by the addition to the
squad of Bob Williams, who has been
playing with AlamogOrdo until recent
