BASEBALL BUGS
Meet TUESDAY TO
DISCUSS LEAGUE
franey Desires Organiza-
ton That Will Continue
Thru Season.

The announcement that efforts
would be made to form a city league
here this summer has aroused con-
siderable enthusiasm as is evidenced
by the fact that a meeting will be
held Tuesday night, April 20, at the
assembly rooms of the Chamber of
! Commerce, Citizens Bank building,
! for the purpose of drafting plans for
the organization of the league. All
baseball fans of the city are invited
TO attend this meeting.
J. Frank Franey is among the bust
ness men interested, and has had, con-
siderable experience with city
leagues. 1t has become evident to
those who are interested, he said,
that in order to keep the league going
and to perpetuate interest, the whole
thing must be put on business eff
cheney basis.
Keen For City League.
MI. Franey said yesterday that he
was keen for a city league, and
would be one of the first in, and
would stay the whole course, if plans
could be made at the start, for a
successful season. eff the league pro-
poses to go a month, and then blow
up" he said, "let that be settled at
the start and then instead of trying
to organize a league, let start a
checker club"
Experience has shown" he con-
tinued, chat a number of players
draw a suit, play one game, and then
never show up again, and incidentally
fail to ever turn their suit in. Anoth-
err thing, the men who are at the head
of it must be held responsible, and
must be made to feel the responsible
ity. In order to do that officials should
receive some remuneration. If they
handle the job right, they must give
considerable time to it, and their time
is worth something"
Mr.. Franey said yesterday that he
had received number of calls from
number of sources, all speaking en-
Enthusiastically for the league. All
agree that the time for league is
now.
The Rotary Club was to have been
presented with request by Mr..
Franey yesterday, urging all business
men to give their employees one after
noon a week off in order to attend
games. A stress of other business be-
fore the club prevented this however
