YORK NOW talks OF
TRANSFERRING TEAM

That the financial condition of the
York Tri-state league club is such
that unless aid is given 1t within the
next week, steps will be taken to
transfer the franchise to another CITY.
was the announcement made by Man
ager Heckert, principal stockholder
following a special meeting of the di-
rectors held in the Colonial Hotel
building last night. The meeting was
called for the purpose Of finding out
the financial status of the team. and
the report made by Secretary GUY
Morrow showed the club to be without
money to pay off the players for their
services up until the past Monday.
The slim attendance at games al
the York park has wiped away the re
serve. fund secured before the opening
through the sale Of season books and
by other means, and the hackers of
the club, including the directors, have
refused to put any more OF their
money into the venture. It is believed
that If enough money is secured to
tide the club over several more weeks.
the attendance will begin to pick up
and the club will be enabled to finish |
ihe season. Another meeting will be
leld tonight, at which time the ques-
ion of whether the transfer is to be |
made or not will be decided upon.
