went out Of existence today.
Following announcement that
the directors of the Alexandra
club voted Tuesday against cont.
nuing in the league with only -four
clubs, President Jay Davidson
| declared the league dlsbauded aud
instructed all clubs To pay off and
release all players.
Arrangements recently had been
made to transfer the AbbeviIle
franchise TO DeRldder and the
dropping of Alexandria would
have necessItated another change
President Davidson, however, de-
cided that further shifting of
| franchises for the short period
remaining of the playing season
was impractIcable, aud deemed il
best to disorgaDize while all the
clubs were in good financial cODdi.
ton.
Ii is understood that all clubs
paid off the players and made
settlements of other debts today.
The league goes out OF business
with all debts paid, Mr.. Davidson
said.
Plans for the reorganization of
the league next season are already
being talked. 1t is proposed to
make the circuit one Of eight clubs,
to include Monroe, Baton Rouge,
Lafayette, Alexandria, Lake
Charles, Orange and Port Arthur,
with the eighth club to be selected
from Vicksburg, Natchez and
Oakdale.
Players of the clubs, upon hear.
ing of the disbandment orders,
we're busy preparing to seek other
fields.
at the time Pres. julius Scharff
withdrew New Iberia's club from
the league, followed by Rayne's
withdrawal, it was not expected
by close observers Of the game
that the league would last long.
In fact Mr.. Scharff gave it as his
opinion that July 10Th would
mark the total Reorganization.
Present events prove him to be
good guesser, as he missed it but
one day.
Although four of the original six
clubs were held in the league by
their officers, however the fans in
some of these towns were far from
satisfied by the manner in which
the leagues affairs were being
conducted.
With dissatisfied fans, it was
impossible to keep mp the attend
aDce on a paying basis financially.
This caused Abbeville's with.
drawal early this week.
The reason for Alexandrla's
pulling out is not given, but it can
scarcely be for lack of financial
support, as Alex is the largest
town on the circuit.
Probably the publishing of
League President Jay Davidson's
letter, in which he referred to a
bunch of gamblers in Alexandria
trying to run the game, may have
bad something to do with the
action Of that club 10 quitting.
The league was in good financial
condition, and the six original
towns could have completed a
successful season had firm hand
been used when the Oakdale
trouble first came up. When the
leagues officials first consented to
bubble over the Oakdale "mess"
the organizations end was in
sight When that trouble was
finally settled wrongly it merely
was q case of "shroud and under
taker" for the league.
And so ends the life history Of
the latest attempt at organized
baseball in Southern Louisiana.
But as with individuals, 80 is it
