Newark Club Likely To Withdraw From
 International League

New York. Nov. 2S-Minor league baseball folk the country over are taking time by the fore1ock and building up all the smaller organiza- dons for the season of 1920. Every where in minor league territory ob- tafns optimism concerning the forth coming race and practically all of the lesser leagues will be in operation,
 Of chief interest, so far as the minor leagues are concerned in the East is the formation of the International League. There have been rumors that Toronto is seeking a major league franchise and that it will withdraw from the International.
 This, however, is not likely to oc-. cur, for while at least two of the big league clubs are losers, their owners are not likely to sell while there is a chance to make money next year IT looks as if Toronto will surely he ir the International again next year. all though the Ontario city is big enough for 2 zaajor circuit. It is sy long odds the best minor league city in inc East Another report indicates the with drawal of the Newark club from the International, in which there appears to be some foundation in fact. Newark has been a losing proposition for a number of years. Five or six years ago it was a good ball town. but the: invasion of the Federal League killed the city for the sport. Last year It was a big loser and now it appears Newark will get out of the league for good.
