have the same initials as We
have, and all that, and. of course, we
feel more or less drawn toward him
But we simply can't let him get away
with this compressed schedule bunch
Not without at least one long anc
loud chirp of protest.
OF course, if President Obediaf
didn't say it, all this doesn't go, you
understand.
But if he did say it, as quoted
we're agin him.
Mr.. Andrews is said to have said
that if the Southern League decides
to adopt the 164-game schedule tc
replace the usual 140-game program
it ought to be played in the same
length of time as the 140game seized
ule.
EVEN if we weren't disposed to take
IL the part of the ball players, al
ready worked pretty nearly to the
limit by scheduled double-headerf
and those resulting from postponed
and tie games, we would let out a
roar of protest against having to si'
up in a press coop and watch the
overtime slaughter.
Not being entirely selfish. we viii
protest in the name of the ball play
ers, taking the position that the pub
lie is able to protect itself by not
going to double headers if it doesn't
want to. 1t usually does, for some
reason. But that fact doesn't entitle
il to any defense
THE 140-game schedule fills com
1 fortably all the space now pro-
vided for 1t, and supplies quite enough
double headers, given even fail
break in the weather conditions.
Playing or attempting to play
fourteen more games in that period

fairly that the 154-games in Ave

to Southern League ball players to &c

any other idea that could be uncorked
And the Southern League ball play
ers have, as a rule, shown themselves
very loyal this winter in the face Of a
good deal OF temptation.
THE 1874 game schedule, with hf-
l teen Gays added to the length Of
the playing season, would be a pretty
neat move to combat the depreda
tions Of the Feds. IL would give
