This vas in the form Of a joint
resolution of Bert Epstein and L. B.
winans Of San Benito. and W. L.
P~endergraft, managing editor Of The
Brownsville Herald, and passed unan-
imousiy.
Representative citizens Of the three
Cameron county towns, numbering
thirty. met, and IL was expected that
Mission, McAllen, W~eslaco, and Mer-
cedes, would be represented, and cit
liens of those towns had assured
the comTaittee Of last week that they
would be on hand for the meeting.
Sam Bolts, mayor of Harlingen,
called the meeting to order, and
called upon anyone present, 50 de-
string TO, express his views in re-
gard TO the situation; whether 70
continue efforts toward organization
or to call the proposition off.
Bert Epstein, L. B. Wynans, of
San Benito; Ben Epstein, Bob Hall,
Harrington; W. l.. Pendergraft, o. ".
Boston and Billy Burnett, Of Browns
vile, responded.
Mr.. Winans. one of the committee
members which toured the Valley
last week. in the interest of the or
ranization. said he could not believe
Hidalgo county towns were not in
terested. because Of their absence.
and that he thought the best way
to 20 about getting these towns in
the league, would be by the method
proposed in the above resolution, and
this was the opinion of the other
speakers, and was approved BY every
present.
Mr.. Boston pointed out that If Hi
dalgo county wasn't interested. but
he believed they we're, that another
league could be formed with the three
Cameron county towns. and towns I'D
the country, and his suggestion was
lauded. However, it was pointed out
that an All-Valley league Of six
teams would be the most feasible
plan, from a financial standpoint.
IL was a good meeting, lively and
full Of pep, and everyone present,
declared IL his opinion that the VAL
ley wanted baseball, and could sup
port a league similar 70 the one in
operation in Nebraska. known as the
State league. there. This plan calls
for q salary limit Of $500 per month
for each club, with thirteen players.
The president, who Is a paid execu-
tive. pays the players and umpires;
that is, the money for these expen-
ses are sent to the president, and he
attends TO these duties, thus elimi-
mating nj expense that would ether
wise accrue TO the different clubs.
Il wal very disappointed when the
Hidsigo county towns did not have
representatives st the meeting" Mr..
Burnett said this morning. The
Rio Grande Valley manager of the
South Texas Chamber Of Commerce,
had been promised by citizens OF
those towns that they would have
representatives az the meeting. "But
everything looks fine, now. and I be-
lieve under the plan outlined at last
nights meeting, that q Valley league
will be formed within the next few
days"
The committee to draw up the
plan Of the league, is composed Of
the following:
Harrington: Ben Epstein and Roy
Hough.
San Benito: L. 3. wynans and
Bert Epstein.
Brownsville: Ben Proctor ard
Bishop Clements. o. N. Boston,
Billy Burnett. Robin Pate. Harbert
