CIRCUIT CHANGES
WILL BE RATIFIED
War Tax, Shortening of Sea-
son, Optional Players
Among Subjects.

Behind closed sealed and guarded
doors. directors of the Western ASSOC
citation will hold an executive session
in Oklahoma city next Sunday which
will exceed in Importance any session
since the organization Of the league
three years ago.
In his call issued yesterday, Presi-
dent Bell announced that the revenue
tax, shortening of the season, OPP
tional players and change in the per-
sonnel of the association will be
among the matters discussed.
While the ratification OF the trans
fer of the Paris franchise to Ardmore
is the only circuit change announced
that In to be discussed, it is known
that in addition to this the McAlester,
Denison and Sherman conditions will
be considered. Denison and Sherman
insist that they are financially able
and are determined to play out the
season. At the same time stories to
the contrary have been so persistent
that there IL no doubt the truth OF
the matter will be discovered at next
Sundays meeting. Negotiations now
are under way for the transfer of the
McAlester franchise to Okmulgee, and
II Is probable that these Will be
brought to n conclusion one way or
another before next Sundays meet
ing. 1t is possible that McAlester cit
izens will rally to the support OF their
team, now that they have discovered
that they will be deprived OF baseball
unless they mend their careless ways.
1t Is barely possible that this meet
ing may see the reduction of the as
sociation to an eight-club circuit, but
II is certain that an attempt to cur
tail the length of the championship
season will receive vigorous opposi-
ton. AZ Labor day, the scheduled
closing date. is considered an early
end.
