70 have been mailed to director Hymes
Yesterday but II the official papers are
In the directors hands on the date Of
March 4th, that will admit the teams
to entrance.
The number is Increasing and the
question of playing the great event
Off in three days is becoming difficult
OF solution. It seems, however, that
by playing the full three sessions Of
the three days the games can be han
died. The prelimfnaries will natural
ly consume a great deal Of time.
There are at least sixty teams to
compete which number makes 80
games in the preliminaries. This large
number cannot be, played in the first
day but many of the fives will not
need to make their appearance on tne
scene Of action until the second day
OF the tournament.
1t is readily seen that the tourna-
ment will not be very strain on the
individuals competing. In fact, It will
be an easier affair upon the players
than ever before. BY there being
so many teams and the process Of
elimination being used, the number
of games each team has to play will
be scattered over a greater period OIL
time than II there were fewer fives tc
compete. The total number of games
each team has to play will not be more
than in previous years. This last
statement will be heartily received by
those fives who entertain hopes OF
winning the big trophy this season

WASHINGTON. March 2.-Clark
Griffith, Washington baseball mag
nate and owner, believes in enlighten-
Ing the publfc-the baseball public
on the financial difficulties attending
the conduct of a. big league franchise.
"All expenses of the game have
doubled in the past few years and We,
the magnatos have kept admissions
down until this year. says Griff.
There is nothing to do but increase
the receipts or get out of the busi-
ness. 1t Is doubtful IL the majority
of us could make a living at the old
schedule of admissions and it is a
certainty that few of us would re-
ceive any returns on our investment.
Last year the Washington club
made $4,000 and out of that we had
to pay tax Of $4,000. That is on an
investment of 100000. But that was
baseball's banner year. Previously
we had lost money season after sea-
son-one year as much as $4,000.
The increase in the price of ad-
missions probably will make the re-
ceipts from 15 to 20 per cent greater
this season-:f the attendance is as
big.
But we are paying much bigger
salaries-every club is. The calls for

make things dangerously interesting
for the Wesleyan outfit. Fairmont
simply could not get going, and that
tells the story in a few words. Long
fellow Shuman had his first off night
since he poined the Normal forces,
and he had to be removed from the
game late in the second period. Shu-

about rs minutes before time for the

half the distance Of the floor away
from the basket.
