said Doom. Take the case of Hap
Myers, the former first baseman of
the Boston Nationals. Myers signed
to play with the Buffalo Federals, but
Hap had inserted in the contract that
the document didn't go provided he
wasn't satisfied with the teams line

The big guns of organized baseball
have already trained their fire on the
Federal League, and President James
A. Gilmore and his associates re-
ceived their severest blow since the
inauguration of the new league when

affixing his signature to New York

Cole, under the guardianship of

Talking aD~ the Feds being in
favor in Baltimore, that's where the
outlaws will shine Baltimore is
welcoming them with open arms. She
has been crying down minor league
baseball for years, and she has been
praying for the big league stuff ever
since she lost her big league team.
For years the Baltimore papers were
so "peeved" they refused to publish
box scores. even of their home team s
games. The citizens there didn't want
minor league baseball nohow, but in
the event of nothing better, they
eventually accepted 1t, though they
never supported the team as they
should. Now, with the Feds in town,
the fans are dancing to the new
music with the latest Tango steps.
The Baltimoreans are for 1t so strong
that Jack Dunn and Connie Mack,
the owners OF the Orioles, are max
ing valiant efforts to leave the town
and take their International League
team with them.
1t isn't strange that Dunn and Mack
should make such hasty overtures.
but the fact that they are showing
such frosty feet" is evidence that
there must be something back of the
Feds, and it also helps to give added
atxanxth aud increased publicity.

milk from this vicinity to effect the
local market.
An average price Of $50 1-2 per
