DUBUQUE IS READY
! TO ENTER LEAGUE
FORMER THREE EYE cLuD
WANTS GAME AFTER AB-
SENCE OF TWO YEARS. @

Muscatine, Aug. 16.--Dubuque
wishes to obtain Central association
brand o. baseball In 1917.
That information became known
when Dubuque baseball men made ~
curry OF Central association ohicialS
concerning the possibilities OF any va
cancies next season. The town has
been placed on the waiting list.
Dubuque was at one time menAers
Of the Three-I league and has been =
good baseball town for thirty years Or
more, and there is no reason why the.
illustrious history OF the past should
be dimmed by inactivity now.
This Is what Dubuque sportsmens
feel. Nv
Without Came Two Years. q
Dubuque has been without baseball
for two years and the time will be
ripe in 1917 for revival Of interest:
In the old river city which has turned
out many ball players who have
brought fame to the city as they adj
vanced to leagues OF higher classincAys
ton As1 n.
With travelling men backing the
proposition of obtaining 4 franchise In
1917, the situation looks all 70 the
merry. "A ss
That the Central association viii he
reorganiZed next year seems to be the
only logical outcome of the unsettlAA'
baseball conditions in several Centre31
association towns. FIT Dodge has Nv
en- intimation that one year II enouA1,s
It is understood that $4,000 loss tn

Wright to Parks to Kuhns Sacrifice
hits, Snow Stolen bases, Theising,
LeBeau. Time of game, 1:15. UNI.
pire, Schiller
SideIights.
Sensational catches by LeBeau and
Murphy robbed the locals of chances
to score. Both fielders pulled down
several hard balls. LeBeau handling
six chances in the first game.
Morgan was working nicely on third
in both games. He has four put outs
in each game and while credited with
two errors would not have committed
bobble had the infield been dry in
his territory.
Torkelson's home run went over the
highest part of the center field fence.
Murphy went up against the fence
in the second inning of the last game
and pulled down Parks drive one
handed. It would have gone for two
bags easily and Theising was racing
for home. II was some catch.
There was large number of ladies
out to both games. The fair fans are
supporting the team literally this
year and there are several real root,
ers among them.
