be used to pay for the upkeep OF
the Ban Johnson organization In
the various States, with the sur
p,us being given to the clubs de-
veloping the youngsters, or possibly
to their parents.
His Idea 10 Years Old
1t was about 10 years ago that
Goodman, former semi-pro ball
player, caught the germ of an idea
which he believed would transform
amateur baseball in Kansas City
into well-organized game for boys
q years OF age or younger, and
at the same time give the players
capable instruction and provide en-
tertainment for spectators.
At the time there was an 8-club
amateur league in the city, with
Joseph V. Dynan the guiding light.
Ban johnson, former Americap
League President, spent much time
at Excelsior Springs, Mo, before
his death, and both Dynan and
Goodman became well acquainted
with him In 1929 Dynan changed
the name of the Kansas City
League to the Ban johnson League
but it was not until 1881 that the
rules formulated by Goodman which
are largely responsible for the or
ganization's success were adopted
Briefly, Goodmans ideas were
! to:
| Bring the educational feature tc
amateur baseball by naming a for
mer professional player as man
ager of each club.
Conduct the games as nearly as
possible in the manner in which
professional games are conducted
To this end, have each club com
pletely uniformed, have uniformed
umpires, and have a regular sched-
ule.
The ideas were adopted as league
rules, and the game flourished in
Kansas City. Instead of 200 or BOG
stragglers at the games, they began
to draw crowds Of 1000 and 1900
4 Sponsors of the teams, usually civic
clubs or commercial organizations
/ sought franchises. Two franchises
sold for 81 800 each.
Other States Seek Leagues
News of the leagues su re S S
spread, and in 1888 Harry Sutel
Of Salina, kas., a former pro play
] err was given permission to organ
ize league in the State. Now
there are three 6-club leagues ir
Kansas, 6-club league in Kansas
City and three 6-club leagues in
Oklahoma.
! GOOD m an has received letters
from residents and organizations
in many States, including New
York, Ohio, Nebraska, Texas and
Colorado, as well as Canada, ask
ing information about Ban john
SON leagues, but he is proceeding
cautiously. He insists on eact
league being established on a firm
foundation under Ban johnson
rules.
The managers Of teams, aside
from umpires, are the only persons
connected with the organization
paid for their services. In Kansas
City games are free, although a
10 cent charge is made for those
who want to sit in the stands.
