INTERMEDIATE LEAGUE
WILL BE NEW IDEA In
AMATEUR BALL HERE
Four Teams Have Already
Indicated Desire to
Enter Circuit.

Something new in baseball leagues
will be attempted in San Antonio dur
ing the coming season. Gene Seng and
others interested in amateur sport are
developing n plan for league of inter.
mediate, boys between the ages of IL
and 81.
-Four teams have already asked FOR
admission if such a league is formed.
which Seng thinks is certain. Two of
these teams ore graduates Of the City
Junior League, which has already en-
joyed two very successful seasons.
The object of the intermediate league
would be to develop future talent for
senior baseball, giving the boys training
which will be invaluable in their later
activities on the diamond, and also pro-
viding opportunities for play to boys
of II to 81 years, n period in which
they are barred from junior .particlpa-
ton and are frequently considered TOO
young for City League company.
A meeting will be called about Eeo-
ruory 10, Seng said Saturday. The
meeting probably will be held at the
Moore sporting goods store.

Asher's Left Eye Goes Bad
and Tuesday Bill Is
Cancelled.

Bad news and good news came to-
gether Saturday for San Antonio fight
fans. Promoter Jack Shelton first an
nounced the cancellation of next Tues
days scheduled fight card, which was
headed by Babe Asher OF St. Louis. who
won the bantamweight championship of
the A. T.. +. during the war, and
Johnny Mccoy of Cleveland; then he
youchsafed the information that, for
Tuesday, February 10, he had matched
up Mccoy with tough Mike Vasquez, FL
Paso featherweight who defeated Brooke
Stephens here recently.
The Asher-M Mccoy plans blew up when
Asher Saturday practically lost the
sight of his left eye, which was in
jured in bout last week. DIR. Bindley,
who attended him, advised him to can
Gel his Tuesday bout and to stay out
of the ring for a few weeks. The doc
tor said he did not believe the sight
would be permanently impaired, and
Shelton hopes to have Asher appear
here before the winter season ends. The
A. f. +. champ will stay in San An
tonic for n while under physicians
care.
Furthermore, some Of Skeletons pre-
liminary contingent for Tuesday re-
ported sick or injured and the promoter
decided to call off the show.
Regarding the headliner for the Feb
ruary Is bill, Mccoy, ANXIOUS to re-
gain lost prestige with the fans in
sisted that he wanted to meet Vasquez,
who is several pounds heavier than he.
Shelton at first refused TO consider
the bout because of the Discrepancy
in weight. but Mccoy kept bringing up
the subject and fans clamored for it
some, it is suspected, because they want
to see Mccoy given a beautiful wallop-
ing-and shelton yielded to the de-
mands. McCoy. a more experienced
battler than Stephens. though no one
is gamer, probably will make better
all-around showing against the vet
