EVERYONE ASKED

MEETING TONIGHT
Ell Centre Team Needs
Help in Getting Sea-

Baseball fans of Ell Centre arc
to. have chance tonight to show
whether or not they wish to sup
port the team which is representing
this city in the Imperial Valley
Winter league. A meeting has been
called to decide just what shall be
done to help the team along, now
that it has started off the season.
The meeting will be held in the
Chamber of Commerce at 1880 p.
N. and everyone who is interested
in the success of the team is urged
to be there.
Manager Jack Tackett does not
believe that FL Centre will throw
down its ball players, and feels that
the fans here are just as loyal as
they are in any of the valley
cities. However, they have been late
IN getting started this year, and he
las been forced to take charge of
the. team under adverse conditions.
Fortunately the team has been of
fered a complete outfit of suits by
John r. Robertson, local agent for
the Chevrolet car. This gives the
players a flying start on the ex-
pense items, and with IA contribu-
tion from the fans of the city, the
team will be able to weather the

HECTIC BAT TIE
RESULTS in TWO
SETS OFFICERS
To Be Threshed Out Be-
fore National Board in
Chicago
ny United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 13.-The
headquarters of the Pacific Coast
League here declared to be in this
city today for the first time in
history, following the hectic battle
at Avalon yesterday between mem
bers of the "Big Five' and the
"Little Three which has resulted
in two presidents, two schedule COM
mittees, two advisory boards and
two finance committees for the
league.
William H. Mccarthy, who was
deposed as league president when
his opponents seated Harry Will
liams, Los Angeles baseball writer,
. as president, announced today the
matter would be threshed out before
the National Board of Arbitration
of Minor Leagues in Chicago on
December IL.
Members of the "Big Five," Salt
Lake, Los Angeles, Seattle, Oakland
and Portland, expressed confidence
that the new president would
straighten out the tangled affairs
of the league and that the conflict
had ended satisfactorily
Mccarthy, however, declared he
would continue as the leagues pres
ident and would conduct the
leagues business as usual. .t
"My opponents have attempted
to abrogate the rights and powers
of the league president to them
selves and have attempted to ride
rough shod over myself and club
owners loyal to me,' Mccarthy
said. "I'l promise them they
won't get away with it and when
the case is taken up in Chicago in
December, l am confident my pos
ition will be vindicated in every
particular.

n. Y. Giants Are
Undergoi ng the
Promised Shakeup
BY HENRY L. FARRELL
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.4Reorgan-
ization of the New York Giants,
promised by john McGraw and con-
!idered vital if the team is to be a
Factor in the next National League
pennant race, has been started by
another of those well known "Bos-
ton to New York Deals.' In the
first of the shake-ups that McGraw
promised after the world s series,
the Giants sent Dave Bancroft,
Casey Stengel and Bill Cunningham
to the Braves for Bill Southworth
and Joe Ocschger.
Bancroft will succeed Fred Mitch
ell as manager of the Braves and
psMitchell, it is understood, will pur-
chase minor league franchise.
In announcing the deal last night
McGraw said the New York Club
had three purposes in making the
swap-to strengthen a weakness in
the outfield, to give Bancroft a
chance to better himself and help
Christy Mathewson s Braves. Two
of the purposes obviously were ac-
complished. Bancroft did better
himself because he has chance to
further his career and he was given
a two year contract at the same sal
ary with a bonus to cover what his
share of two more world series
would have been. The Braves also
were strengthened by the addition
of Bancroft, the best shOrtstop in
the National League and a playing
manager, Cunningham, one of the
most promising young outfielders in
the league and Casey Stengel, one
of the best workers in the business.
The Giants, if no more deals are
to follow, certainly got none the
better of the deal. ...

support the latter can expect from
this city. The other teams in the
league have been given big send
off by their townspeople, and Fl
Centre should not be lacking in
sufficient community spirit to do
the same thing. "This is the eoun-
ty seat, and other towns expect a
great deal from the team represent

players today, "and we are ready
to do more than our share if the
