 It is learned on reliable authority that William Edward Stauffer, one of the mainstays in the box for Bridge port the last two seasons, is a hold out. The Smoky City hurler is cred ited as declaring that unless he re- ceives a substantial increase he will play independent ball in the Pitts burgh City League this season.
 Stauffer is a big favorite here as well as one of the best pitc1ees in the Eastern end the fans are hoping he will return.
 Another member of last years team is also a ho1dout.
