Baseball Bush Leagues TO Ask FOR
Many Changes at Their Annual
Meeting It New
Orleans
THEY ARE IN A BAD WAY
Some Radical Changes Are Felt to be
Necessary II Minors Are to

10y H. C. Hamilton, United Press
Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Nov. Bent on doing
several things to the national agree
ment, primed with suggestions OF
many sorts, broken in pocketbook, but
not in spirit, the minor league base
ball magnates of the country begin to-
day to step into the 1imelight. They
are on their way to New Orleans,
where q week from today they will
open their annual meeting.
The minor leagues have been In a
bad way for long time and many a
bush town mogul has been spending
his nights without sleep trying to fig
ure out a plan whereby baseball can
be made to pay in the smaller cities
of the country. Nearly every one OF
them has planned some sort of sug'
gestion and the air at New Orleans Is
going to be full Of them.
New York is entertaining its share
of the minor magnates today. several
of them coming here to take steam
ship for the Louisiana city. Jimmie
McGi1l, owner OF the Indianapolis Am
erican association club, and has man
ager, Jack Hendricks, are spending
election day IN New York and will be
come members Of a party which will
sail tomorrow Ed G. Barrow, presi
dent of the International league will
make the trip down the coast and Gov
ernor John X. Tener is expected to be
aboard.
Redistricting plans are part OF the
rumors flying around regarding pos
sible reorganization Of the small cir
cults. These reorganizatfons as plan
ned. call for splits In present circuits
that are almost unbelievable. Dras
tic measures will be suggested and
there are some magnates who believe
at least a part of them will be adopted
The minors feel they haven't been
getting the right sort of treatment
and they want some changes in the ma
tional agreement. Also Dave Fult7
has a bone to pick with the magnates
and some new demands already are ir
possession OF the national board fol
submission at the New Orleans meet
ing.
The minors-some of them-wan
representation on the national com
mission and this IS another question
that will get lots OF attention.
