There is more activity along this
line now than at any time in the
eight years I have been connected
with professional baseball" said
Lands.
ALREADY the seeds of disintegra-
ton have begun to spring into life.
One day the whole organization is
going to fall down unless this con-
dition is soon remedied."
Cited Evidence
Judge Lands cited the case of
a class "B" league, thought to be
the Three-I group, which has lost
more than 100000 in attendance in
the past five years, dropping from
an aggregate of $4,000 to 100000.
He said he believed major league
ownership was largely responsible
for this drop.
Il have heard it said that the
major leagues were entirely re-
Sponsible for this condition." said
Judge Lands, "but I have heard
many men at this minor league
meeting say that they came here
principally looking for a major club
to take over their team. think both
parties are equally to blame.
The main point Is: How are the
members Of this organization going
to remedy that problem and save
baseball? I refer particularly to the
little fellows, the Glass B. C~and D
leagues, which are facing their doom
under existing conditions.
Hurts Enthusiasm
Il am convinced that I am right
when say that we ought to return
to the system of one ball club under
the control of one interest only. How
can you expect a man to go out and
throw his hat into the air and root
Tor team when he knows that the
team is owned by some one 1000
miles away and that he is cheering
and backing their interests, and
not those of his own community?
we ought to get back to a situation
where a man can think about the
towns club as his own and there is
the old-time traditional rivalry be-
tween the neighboring towns"
Judge Lands said that he was
going to keep hammering at this
thing until something was done
about it,"
Minor leaguecowners and officials
generally reacted favorably to Judge
Lands remarks. After the speech
they gathered in groups in the hotel
lobby and agreed almost unani-
mously that "the judge is right" but
seemed to be perplexed about to
where to start in to correct the
situation,

Stove League Chatter

tom HICKEY. American AS
Il ISOLATION prexy, has purchased
umpire zeke Clayton from the
Western League to fill the shoes of
Ted McGreW, who goes to the Ma
tlonaI League staff. Clayton has
been guessing 'em in the Western
loop five years and comes highly
recommended to the double A
circuit. No other changes are like
ly to be made by Hickey.
n
Nick CulIop, Southern Associa-
ton outfielder, will go to Min
neapoliS If he fails to convince
Judge Lands he deserves to be de-
clared free agent. Nick was unable
to hit the low hook when he was in
the A. A. before. However, he would
be a threat in the small Miller
park.
Another Miller deal brings Leo
Cortazzo, midget shortstop, up from
Nashville to the Flour City. He has
fine arm and is popular with fans
wherever he performs.
NATIVES of Chattanooga called
IN it pure Tennessee corn, but
baseball convention visitors refused
to recognize it as anything but mule
and Montreal had little trouble
landing the 1880 pow WOW. 1t was
only 1923 that the boys convened
in Toronto.
According to Cy Slapnicka, scout
for Cleveland, his club no longer is
interested in Joe Kuhel, star
Kansas City first sacker. KuheI
lives in Cleveland, but apparently
Manager Peckinpaugh decided Joey
wouldn't click against big league
pitching. Or maybe the price wasn't
right.
