FANS DEMANDING
SOME ACTION FOR
LEAGUE IN FALLS
Hints That Teams Will Be
Organized but Only One
Announcement Made.

The echo of the official opening of
the major leagues is being reflected
here by insistent murmors among the
baseball fans that Great Falls should
this years have city league. The sand
lots are drying and the lads are COM
mencing to massage the gloves that
have long laid idle into shape for the
| approaching season of the national
sport.
Youngsters are deserting their
marbles and are choosing up for the
first lone old cat" games Of the season.
The big boys are playing catch in the
alleys and long for the weather to
break so that they can get into action
in earnest.
There is a lot of baseball talk. but
only one man has as yet announced his
intention of putting a team in the
field. F. w. Farmer, manager of the
Court of Honor Life association, has
his team lined up and declares that as
soon as the sunshine triumphs over the
SHOWS and cold winds the players will
begin spring practice.
There are hints that several other
teams are being organized, but can be
traced to no authentic source. And all
the while the fans are watching the
sport pages for the scores of big
league games and wishing that Great
Falls might claim something more in
spring than few scattered teams that
play at infrequent intervals. A city
league is the best bet. they say.
Old days are recalled when Great
Falls supported a top notch team in
the Pacific Northwest league and had
one of the fastest aggregations in the
west when the city was affiliated with
T.
these associations dissolved did the
baseball spirit lag in Great Falls and
the fans are clamoring for a city
league to put the national pastime back
in red letters on Great Falls sport
map.
