 At the meeting of managers of the City league Friday night at the city hall resolution reaffirming the con fidence of the managers in the Avondale Mills team was unanimously passed and the trouble caused by unsrtsman- like conduct on the part of a few fans at last Saturdays game settled
 Hugh Conner, brother of Donald Conner, president of the Avondale Mills, was present at the meeting and made an earnest appeal for the mills teams franchise in the City league. The action af few of the fans on the dimaond of the Avondale Mills team last Sat day was catastrophe, said Mir. Conner in his plea, and was a serious thing in the eyes of the officials of the com pany. Not the mere fate of the team but the integrity of the mills was at stake he felt, said the speaker The purpose of the teams was not for ad- vertisement but to offer the, employees opportunity to mingle with people of other lines of work and to breed sports manship. Such happening would never have come to pass, it was pointel out, had his brother been on hand and his brother. would have been on hand, he said, had he perceived an inkling of what was to come.
 Clears Situation
 Finishing his plea he promised the managers that no such occurance would again happen on the Avondale Mills diamond. Plans for curbing the over jealous fan would be made and he, himself, with others would attend the games to that no outburst of fervor causes trouble.
 At the close of his speech Mir. Conner was given generous applause by the managers and Vice President R. A. Redburn proposed the resolution of re- affirmation of confidence tn the team which passed unanimously. Howard Duryear presided.
 So Saturday afternoon Ayondale Park, keen rivals of the Avondale Mills team and tied with them in league standing, will take their nine over to the Avondale Mills diamond and battle the Millers tor their place.
 Another game which is expected to feature is the meeting of Southern Bell and Sayreton. These two teams gre tied with won and lost but the telephone nine defeated the division
