Rocky Ford Out

Rocky Ford could not stand for

ley champions commenced slipping and
lost four games in a row the patron
age fell off until there was no longer
funds to keep the team going and the
franchise was sold to Trinidad. OF
the four towns which originally or
sanized the Arkansas Valley League
La Junta is now the only one still in
the game. Had the original agree
ment with regard to paid members of
the teams been kept all the towns
could have maintained fair teams and
paid expenses. Towns Of less than
ten thousand cannot keep up a full
salaried team unless they have an
angel in the community with real
love for the game and more money
than he can conveniently spend. This
season will in all probability mark the
end of the league. The records made
by some Of the players, who were
not good enough to stand the pace in
this league, when they went to other
sections Of the state proves that this
was the strongest league in Colorado,
and the teams as whole outclassed
anything but the Denver Western
League team. 1t will be a long time
before the game sees another race
as exciting and hard fought as the
pennant races in the Arkansas Valley
League in 1914 and 1915.

Following the pillow. harvesting and

a husband means merely a change OF

An Improvement, however. is gradu-

more than some of his Balkan neigh

the sole occupation At for a man is
warfare. Through schools, endowed

other enterprises. and especially
through the demands of modern bust
