ribute to President Justice:
1t can be said, unreservedly.
that Frank Norton is the only man
now known of that would receive
Burlington's vote over President
Justice. While Mr.. Norton will
be given solid backing, this action
is not taken by the association
because Of any disagreement with
Mr. Justice. The Burlington
men have always respected both
Justice and his opinions and on
more than one occasion has this
league executive helped the local
directorate out of various COM
plicated situations by his advice.
No, Burlington has had no dis
agreement with Mr.. Justice, but
this does not alter the fact that
Mr.. Norton will be supported as
all are heartily in favor Of him as
the next president of the Central
association. Mr.. Norton is well
liked and respected by all who
know him and is capable base
ball man. If he is successful In
his race for the presidency, there
is no doubt but what he will fill
the job to perfection.

Four Veteran Rule
Will be Retained
The Four-Vet. Rule.

I
Whether or not there will be fight
on the four-veteran rule at the meet
ing in Burlington is matter for
speculation Several of the northern
clubs have stated that they consider
the rule dead issue and think that
it has no chance to be retained. Re
gardless of the opinion of these clubs
it might be said that the measure
which kept the league intact last year
has a better than even chance OF
being retained, the sentim ent in favor
of 1t being demonstrated at meet
ings in several c. A. cities. 1t is
practically certain that under no cir
cumstances will it be abolished alto
gether and all that could happen
would be an alteration. Burlington is
solid for the four-vet. rule. Musca-
tine doesn't care either way, Mason
City is in favor of it, Clinton wants
it, but Waterloo and Marshalltown
are against it, with Cedar Rapids I'M
decided so far as Is known.
