quite likely to be in Davenport, Iowa,
next year. The South Atlantic league
has only two clubs left from the
wreck that took place last summer.
The American association will play
only 140 games. The Pacific Coast
league is going to cut its season
short.
Garry Hermann, chairman OF the
national commission, warned the
minors they must cut salaries and
reduce the other expenses If they
hope to survive the war.
So, despite the stand the associa.
ton has made. it is regarded as GER
tain that fewer leagues will finish
the season next summer than were
expected here at the annual meeting
Every club owner wears a long
face, and only tales of woe are heard.
1t is agreed that minor leagues are
in worse shape than ever before in
history. They deserve credit for
their spirit in voting to go on through.

The second game was more closely

mighty close run, but after about
three innings Of steady playing the
Eectrics forgot how to handle the

The Electric team has been consider
ably strengthened by the addition Of
Paul King to the line up, and the
feature of the game was Kings home

extravaganza to use grains in this

substitute the use OF a few table

its invigorating effects.
