BIG MEETING To
FIX SCHEDULE OF
SEASONS GAMES
SET FOR NIGH. 27
Abramson Chosen Manager of
Local Club and Ingram
Named Secretary Treasurer
Committee Picked to Discuss
with Neighboring Towns
Prairie League Proposition

At called meeting attended by
representative bunch of baseball
fans in the Knights of Pythias club
rooms Sunday afternoon, plans were
formulated for the 1920 baseball sea
son on the prairie and the participa-
ton of the Grangeville club therein.
Ed Abramson for manager of the
Grangeville bunch was the unanimous
choice of all present. Abramson is an
old player, close student of the game
and his selection appears to meet
the approval of the public in general
Eli Ingram was named as secretary
treasurer of the local club.
Plans are being made to form g.
club Prairie league, such as prevailed
last year and from present indications
it appears that probably all the
towns which battled for the rag last
year will be on the firing line when
time is called this spring. 1t is pos
sible that Kooskia will likely be ad-
mitted. Billie Parsons and other play
ers at Kooskia are clamoring for a
chance at the pennant in the Prairie
league this year. A meeting of all
the directors, managers and others in
terested in the league has been cal
led for Saturday evening, March 27,
when complete plans for the leagues
1920 playing season viii doubtless be
made Ed Abramson, Eli Ingram and
Harold Harris were named as com
mittee to represent Grangeville at
this meeting.
LOOKS LIKE STRONG TEAM
Outlook for strong local club has
never been brighter at this season of
the year As usual, the club is shy
any great wealth of whirlwind pitch
ing talent, but plans are under way
to overcome this handicap. At pre-
sent there are about four backstoppers
who will be invited to don the big
mitt and try out for the catcher's
Job, including Kabot, Basinger, Hazel
baker and Strange.
Hurley, Hazelbaker, Asher, Meyers
and Vansise are among those who will
be slated to take try at the pitcher s
duties, while some seven infelders-
ingram, Bellmaine, Howard, Hartnett,
Cav Eimers, Rambo and Glib Eimers-
will work out for the honor of holding
down the three sacks and the short
field. Some of these, too, may be
shifted to the outfield, though at pres
ent it appears that with Criddlebaugh,
Morris, Gillett, Evans, Jim Altman,
Tom Hazelbaker and Milliorn ready to
contest for the outer garden posi-
tions, the Ay-chasing job will be we'll
cared for.
MAY DEVELOP NEW PLAYERS
Of course there are other players
who are not listed here who may
develop as the spring sunshine con
tinues to shine. The outlook, on the
whole. is most gratifying. The only
available site for the games at pres
ent is the high school park where
arrangements may be made to better
accommodate the crowds.
With this array of talent and with
capable, dependable men to conduct
the club during the coming season,
the business men and citizens gcncr-
" can we'll afford to rally to the sup
port of the club and plug for it all
down the line.

Can't See Way Clear to Put
$4,000 in Doughboy Model
Selected by Commission

Noicing objection to the edict of the
state Soldiers and Sailors Memorial
commission, that the dOughbOy model
of statute must be chosen by the coun-
lies of Idaho, in order that they may
share in the $4,000 state apprOpria-
tion, to the extent of $1,000 for each
county, for erecting memorials to sol
dier and sailor dead Of the late war,
John j. Pulse, chairman of the Idaho
County Soldiers and Sailors Memorial
commission, Wednesday noon addressed
the Grangeville Commercial club.
"There is uncertainty in my mind, "
said Mr.. Pulse, cas- to how the state
appropriation of $1,000 is to come.
wrote to Watkin l.. Roe, chairman of
the commission, and asked him how to
obtain the appropriation. He re-
piled, stating the law, and recited that
plans and specifications should be
presented to the committee.
MOTIVE OF LEGISLATURE
cit occurred to me that when the
members of the Legislature apprOpria
ted the money for the memorials,
they did it with loyal, patriotic
American spirit. According to Mr.. Roe
we have got to buy the dOughboy
model, if we get the $1,000 state
money.
Mr. Pulse went on to tell Of his
correspondence with Mr.. Roe. Mr..
Pulse asserted that the statue of the
doughbOy, as adopted by the state
would cost approximately
$500, while private firms had offered
to furnish a doughboy statue for
$500 to $1,000, or for $500 group |
comprising a soldier, sailor and war

State to Pay
Rail Fares to
Conventions

Delegates to Idaho party conven-
ton, both regular and special, may
call upon the state of Idaho for rail
road expenses, and these expenses
must be allowed until the $500 APP
propriated for that purpose is expend-
ed These facts were established
by an opinion from the office of
Roy L. Black, Idaho attorney general,
at Boise.
The question was brought by one
who sought to know whether the
$500 expense money appropriated by
the primary law was to be spent for
nominating conventions alone or for
all conventions. 1t was answered by
u reference to the three kinds of con
ventions conventions for filing va
cancies, conventions for choosing del
egates to national conventions, and
nominating conventions and the fol
lowking argument:
LAW is QUOTED
''Seetion $50, making provision for
the payment of delegates, is the con-
Guiding section of the act. The three
kinds of conventions hereinbefore
enumerated are specifically recognized
in preceding sections. and / cannot
see that any argument can be hinged
on the fact that more attention is
devoted to one than to the other, or
that one is mandatory and one is not,
for these things do not deprive them
Of their character as state conven-
tions.
Section $50 does not say 'The state
but provides for the pay
ment of expenses of each delegate to
A state convention. "A means any,
in any ordinary usage; and it is there
fore my opinion that the railroad fare
Of IA delegate to any one Of the three
kinds of conventions mentioned in the
act can be legally paid, so long as The
fund is not exhausted. In this con
lection ii hardly seems possible that
$500 will pay such expenses for both
parties for the bennium, and beyond
he amount appropriated no expenses
IAN be allowed.
I'VE find no provision for paying
my expenses to committee conven-
ions. neither do we find any authority
'or paying expenses of state ntral
to committee meetings
~ otherwise.
MAY EXHAUST FUND
Officials see interesting possibilities

hat the June convention of the Demo
