course there are players to sign up,
but the one big difficulty. grounds, has
been overcome in these cities.
York Is All Right
AT York there was a misunder-
standing. While we prefer the plot
in the central portion of the city. the
Pennsylvania State League does not
want to buy property, and it looks
very much as if the games in York will
be played on the fair grounds. Allen
town was slow in coming around, but
obstacles have been overcome in that
city Altoona will be fixed up to-day,
and we have a magnate from Canada
who had Canadian league team
ready, but owing to the war that or
ganization will not start, and he is
willing to take his entire team and
franchise to Johnstown. Once the
bonds are up we will be able to go
ahead with a rush. The representa-
