Harry Bay, Manager Of Madison Team
is Enthused Over Situation,
and 10 Considering the
Job az Leader.
OPEN FOR ENGAGEMENT
Arrangements May be Made to Use
the Knox College Diamond
for Week Day Games
Erect BIeachers.

GALESBURG, Dec. 29-Baseball
is on the climb in Galesburg and
chances for team here this coming
season are unusually bright.
Harry Bay, manager of the Madi-
son, Wisconsin, team, in the Illinois
wisconsin league, was in Galesburg
yesterday, talking over the situation
here, and is now considering posi-
ton as manager of local club IN
case Galesburg re-enters the Central
association.
Il am well pleased with the open
ing here and know that team could
be made to pay. At present have
several players in my possession, and
1t would be but the work of a short
while to gather in winning team.
My baseball experience is wide
enough SO that can tell baseball
town when I see it and GaIesburg
looks as though It ought to be good
one with the right men at the head
of things"
Has Had Experience.
Mr.. Bay has had experience as a
player and manager, being an ex-big
Lacquer. For seven years he. cavorted
about the American league circuit,
starring as an outfielder with Detroit
and Cleveland. He was one Of the
smoothest fielding gardeners in the
game, and but for injuries would be
in the big ring yet. He has had re-
markable success in training young
sters. showing them the fine points
of the game, and raising a number
OF bushers who graduated into high
class ball.
owing to the fact that the Wiscon-
Em-Iilinois league is not operative
next season. Mr. Bay is looking over
the ground here as possible chance.
Plans are being discussed today for
the formation Of an association to
take over club and make the run
for the 1915 pennant in the C. A. Mr..
Bay stated that he favored the organ
tzation of several business men to
handle the team here and let the
manager attend to the players end Of
1t. He expressed the opinion that
this has been the most satisfactory
way Of handling the proposition and
felt that 1t would be the most feasible
plan in Galesburg.
Location Of Diamond.
The discussion Of the location for a
diamond was brought up and it ap-
peared that most of the fans were IN
favor Of securing the Knox college
field at least for the weekday games.
The matter is to be taken up with e.
NJ. Dunn, financial manager Of the
college, and If the team is brought
here it is probable that the college
grounds will be used. New bleachers
would be erected and the ground put
into excellent condition by the local
association.
No action has been taken by the
baseball enthusiasts as yet, but 1t is
expected that meeting will be held
before the convention Of the c. A. in
Waterloo, January Is.
Ralph Hopes stated that If the
city decided to go into baseball again
next season, it was likely that rep
resentative would be sent from Gales
burg to present the matter before
the directors.

Legislators in New York Assembly
Deal Fight Game Crushing
Blow At Coming
Session.
SAY SPORT IS BRUTAL
Under, FrawIey Law Conditions Have
Not Been Good-Too Much
Betting Going
On.

IBy Hal Sheridan, written for the
United Press.]
NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-If the re-
formers of the fighting game In this
state have their way during the COM
ing session OF the legislature there
will be no more boxing. Despite the
efforts of the boxing commission TO
keep the sport clean the reformers
declare the Frawley law hasn't abol-
ished betting and brutality. They
maintain that the sport as 1t is play
ed now is still prize fighting, pure and
simple.
It can be said that the reformers
are NOT entirely without support and
sympathy. When the last attempt
was made to repeal the Frawley law
it almost met with success. LawmaK-
ers from upstate sustained the repeai
vigorously as the sentiment toward
the sport in their districts was any
thing but favorable.
During that time the reformers
spread stories OF frame-up fights, bet
ting, and gave instances OF brutality.
The same. tactics, 1t is believed, VIII
be restored to this time with the
Smith Corey bout which was fought
early this month used as an instance.
1t is alleged that during the hight
ringside spectators violated tho bet
ting law and several Witnesses can De
produced who saw transactions made
and odds offered Of II to 10 on Smith.
It is quite possible that Governor
elect Whitman will do something to
save the exit OF the pugilist But his
attitude is unknown beyond that TACT
that he has stated that he Is not op-
posed to the game. properly con-
Quoted.
