isn't afraid of any man that steps TO

better tighter the pinch, the better he

Last year he beat che Indianapolis

Meeting at Albuquerque.
The little trouble over the Phoenix

were some time in getting together,
Late Thursday night a wire was re-

Brown had arranged matters to their
mutual satisfaction and both would
work toward getting good club in
Phoenix.
John McCIoskey is still hopeful. how
ever, that Brown viii go to Tucson
within the next day or two, as the
coast man is one OF the best busters
and organizers in the game and the
best man available to line up a club
at Tucson.
Hurley and McCloskey were unable
to get out to Las Cruces Thursday. as
the local manager had some business
in connection with the closing Of GER
tain streets in his park site to attend
to. There were several long distance
telephone calls between Las Cruces and
Fl Paso during the day and il has been
arranged that a meeting of the Las
Cruces fans will be called, at which
Hurley and McCloskey will speak
Advices from Albuquerque indicate
that there will be rousnig meeting
there tonight. Over 100 business men
have signed the call for the meeting
and have pledged their support to the
club. At this distance it looks as
though Albuquerque will have one OF
