Supporters of the present commits

the recent report of the commissions
secretary, Charles Harvey, in which
it was set forth the state obtained q
revenue of almost $4,000 from the
game in the past year. 1t is also
pointed out that the commission has
been forced to take no action against
clubs for putting up fake and sham
battles.
However, there is dissatisfaction
over the state of 1.-The grand old
game" here. Those not in sympathy
with the commission have laid down
charges of favoritism at it's door.
These charges set out that the COM
mission has favored certain clubs
with attractive shows, while putting
obstacles in the paths of others. The
upstate legislative element, it is un-
derstood, is the most strongly op-
posed to the manner in which the
i port is being conducted now. It is
also whispered this same element is
favoring the abolition of the game
entirely.

j. i Is As q ~ sa9s & +. -
AS the time draws near for the ball
clubs to start southwark in search
of condition, the champion Braves
are looming up large as probable pen
nant winners again In the eyes of
Gotham fans. The recent acquisi-
ton of, Sherwood Magee, the slug
:ging outfielder, has given a decided
boost to team that was considered
a poor batting aggregation last year.
Also, it is pointed out, >Magee last
year was dissatisfied at PHILADELPHIA
and did not perform in his best style
notwithstanding the fact his name is
high among the National league
sluggers. The records give Magee
credit for driving in the most runs
last year. This, in view of pitch
ing staff which is par excellence, is
making the Braves loom up a big OBJ
stacle in the path of John McGraw
and his Giant crew.
John J. McGraw and other direct
ors of the New York Giants destinies
are putting forth untiring efforts to
bolster up the team for the 1915 pen
nant marathon. The change of own
ership and managership of the Yam
KEGS has given that club lot of pub
licity and Giant officials figure the
fans are going to pay a lot more. at
tention to the American league club
next year than last. Therefore,
Jawn J and his cohorts are leaving
no bush unbeaten to unearth some
regular performers.
The loss of the 1914 pennant cost
the Giants in the neighborhood of
$4,000 as no one believes the series
would have ended in four games had
the Giants opposed the Mackmen last
October. Sherwood Magee's transfer
to the Champion Braves was quite a
blow to McGraw's hopes for he was
hot on the trail of the slugging Phil.
Now he has centered his hopes on
Hans LObert. Lobert is a popular
ball player and one whom McGraw
feels would aid materially in putting
his club in the height of the pennant

very wicked man though he 1 4 not
