have been arranged for. There is to
be a new coat of green paint put on
the wall around the field. while sta
tionary chairs are TO be placed in the
boxes. The outfield is to be leveled off
where it is rough. and work on the in
field is to be started at once. so that
this part of the playing field will be
in perfect condition the coming sea-
son.
rrangements for the fifty-cent en-
trance along the general approach TO
the grandstand were also made, and a
general renovation and overhauling of
all the stands is contemplated.
The local park is now one of the
most comfortable in the circuit, and it
is the intention of the management to
keep it at a high standard.

Back to the Farm.

Baker is going to retire to his farms.
Frank has accumulated quite a little
money during the last eight years He
has been saving his money, and now he
is the owner of two big farms in the
vicinity of Trappe. Md; has money in
vested in other business, and has a
little sum in bank. He Is tired of the
game, and is sincere in his desire to
sever his connection with base ball.
Il regret that 1 was forced to make
this announcement at this time, as Won
men are assembled here on a festive oc-
casion. but as Baker has issued his ulti-
matum in regard to his connection with
base ball. I do not believe 1 could have
found a better time to make this
known. I wish Frank every success in
his new venture. He was a hard-work-
ing. loyal and gentlemanly player, and
my best wishes are with him now.

Springs Big Surprise.

When Manager Mack was called upon
last night to respond to toast he was
accorded a wonderful ovation, and as
he arose the feasters sang, cheered
and the name of Mack reverberated
from one end of the spacious hall to
the other. This continued for ten min
utes and when at las. it subsidized, the
leader of the Athletics in a trembling
voice expressed his thanks for the kind
reception and after commenting upon
the hOnors paid him and his associates,
suddenly ceased speaking, and for one
minute looked out over his audience.
And here is what he said:
Gentlemen, / am going to make an
announcement and it is very i'm
portant one. J. Franklin Baker has
quit base ball. He is now out of it for
good. 1 have been anticipating this
move for the past two seasons, but
was greatly depressed to have him de-
eide upon it just at this time. 1 need
Baker and it goes without question
that his place will be hard to fill.
I'm order to protect myself and the
club, l signed Baker to a three-year
contract in 1914, but before the home
run hero would sign he had this pro-
visor inserted, If at any time l so de-
sire to quit the game. that l can do so
and will not be blacklisted.' Well, as
/ had made seven or eight trips down
to his farm in Maryland. I concluded
that that was the best thing I could
do and / then signed him for three
years.

HOME-RUN BAKER GIVES UP
BASE BALL FOR ALL TIME
Announcement Made by Manager Mack
Frank Will Devote All His Time
to Farming
to Farming.

PHILADELPHIA, February III.
Franklin Baker, hero of three worlds
series, has quit base ball. This an
nouncement was made by Connie Mack,
manager of the Athletics, at the elev-
enth annual banquet of the Sporting
Writer'S Association of Philadelphia,
held at the Hotel Majestic last night.
Baker out of base ball. One of the
greatest players that ever cavorted
around the third sack has voluntarily
retired from the national pastime. No
longer will the Philadelphia fans and
the fans throughout the American
League circuit have an opportunity to
view with pleasure or with pain the
work of this wonderful hitter, the
great home-run king. In every state,
in every city, in every town or ham
let the mention of the name Baker
brings a thrill to the follower of base
ball. How many times has this terrible
Baker broken up game and caused
the home fans to go wild with cheers;
how many times has J. Franklin sent
a promising recruit or noted star to
the clubhouse, and how often did the
head of the Athletics wrecking crew
bring grief to an opposing nine with
wicked and timely single, double, triple
or a home run. The latter was his spe-
cialty, and the many times he shattered
the heroic work of his opponents with
one of these circuit smashes Is now
matter of history. The famous John j.
McGraw of the Giants will bear this
out; even a Marquard or a Mathewson
will confirm this.
Baker has been contemplating this
move for the past two seasons and
many rumors have been current that
he was through. Some reports had the
Home Run King dissatisfied with the
Athletics and that he was going to
cast his lot with the Feder@ls. But
when the sage of the White Elephants
made known the true story all rumors
were shattered.
