THIS WINTER
BY HAROLD v. WILCOX.

Despite fears TO the contrary, IL Is
very possible that Detroit will have
strong hockey team this winter. ana
In addition, an amateur city league.
Hockey fans have not become rec
onciled to the prospect OF winter
minus the great arctic season sport
and have been quietly working on
plans that would put representative
team into the field as soon as snow
flies. Those plans are now well al
vanced, and Sunday morning, al iV
O'Clock, mass meeting OF players
and fans will be held in the Henry Z.
Weber & Co. building, No. 10 Ora

the season. II the interest expected
is shown, the Detroit arena viii be
leased. and practice will begin next
week.

vide for O city team. largely compos-
ed OF the same performers who have

plan OF the various local baseball.

league will play out schedule OF It's

said that several business firms IN
Detroit have agreed 10 back some OF
the teams, of which there will be SIX
or eight In the proposed organization.
There probably has never recently
been a time In Detroit when there
have been SO many players OF ability
and promise In the city. A large num-

tro;t To work this winter. and they
are all anxious to get chance 10

A story came over the wires. yes

possibly an important angle upon the
baseball peace" situation. Roger

Cubs, and II was expected the "Ha-
jah" would. after all. sign contract
to manage the Cubs next year. despite
larger offers from the Feds. becausc

decide to stick to organised ball"
With the talk OF salary limit agree
ments. absorption and the score OF
other things that have been proposed
In the various peace plans urged. Il
would not be surprising II q lot Of
players did hasten TO afix their sig
natures TO contracts while contracts
are still juicy. From the players
point OF view. the Federal league
could meet with no worse fate than
to make It's peace with organised ball.
and II the American league magnates
are merely bluflng on the treaty
proposition. they are making what n
likely TO prove a mighty profitable
stall.
However. that situation Is probably
the natural result OF q position that
the owners have honestly taken.
There Is no doubt but that peace 10
desired. and no proposal has been sus-
gested by the American league which.
when analysed. will mean the surren-
dering OF anything by that organise
ton.
Indeed, the proposal credited to

posed to the proposition. The Hon
orable Ban and his clan decided. u

be q good thing IL the National ana
Federal leagues got together In one
league, which would then be recogniz-
ed by organized baseball"
However. that statement OF the
American leagues attitude Ii I'M
doubtedly too broad. There 10 reason
to believe that what the magnates
did decide would be a proper peace
measure was the consolidating of the
Fed and National clubs In the cities
where the field could not properly
support them both properly. the Ma
tional league retaining It's identity.
In cases where q consolidation with
the International and American Asso-
citation league clubs Ia practicable.
that probably was also favored. This
is along the treaty lines that have
been urged from many sources for
some time.
That consolidation with American
league clubs was not favored 10 prob
ably because In the cities where the
fight for patronage is most bitter, the
Johnson clubs are the strongest In
town. II the outlaws consider them
selves rich enough to night another
year. II is hardly reasonable to expect
! them to listen to such g plan.
