WILL BE SECURED AT ONCE
FOR WORK IN THE PIED
MONT LEAGUE
MANY PLANS MADE
AT Meeting Held In GreenvilIe 1t
Was Agreed That Professionals
Must Be Secured

The directors OF the Piedmont base
ball league. with President Ed. H. De-
Camp of Geffncy, presiding. held an
important meeting in Greenville yes
terday afternoon. One of the princi-
pal things done by the directors was
deciding that the Piedmont league
must have two professional umpires
and these men will be secured at
once. 1t is hoped that one OF them
may report In Anderson in time for
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. series on
Ihursadya Friday and Saturday.
Plans for the next season OF the
league were discussed yesterday and
IT was agreed to make the league q
six-team circuit, Union and Green
wood being admitted to membership.
1t was decided that next years seuson
tickets would be put on sale at $40
each and every town must sell 200
of these tickets before it could be ad-
mitted to membership. The entire
$4,000 will then be placed in the
hands of common general treasur-
er. who will pay all salaries for all
clubs and have general direction of
the finances Of the league.
President DeCamp said before the
meeting was adjourned that he hoped
to secure two professional umpires
before the end of the week.
The Anderson team is today in bet
ter shape than 1t has ever been. Le-
Roy McColl is good baseball player,
he Is hard working, he has plenty of
reason and knows how to use his
head while the game is In progress.
Pitcher Rice has been signed by the
locals as has pitcher McAllIsrer. The
laet named player comes from Char
lotte. Of the North Carolina league,
while the Anderson fans saw Rice
work yesterday. Manager Buli. form
erly OF the Anderson CLUB and pitcher
Sunny have both been released and
signed last night with Spartanburg.
"Styx" Harmon, Anderson's new 1st
baseman. is one Of the Dess yet seen
at Buena Vista park anu he will soon
develop into beautiful bail player.
Everything Is going gooG with the
local team and the handwriting is on
the wall, AndersOn's remaining days
in the cellar are now nu:coered. In
all probability we will be out Of there
before the club returns Thursday
from It's road trip.
The. fans will hardly recognize the
team when they see it on the field
next Thursday but they will see a
better team than has yet piuyeG for
Anderson this year. Hip, nip. like
wise hooray.
