GAMES ON SLATE
Both Independent And Com

Representatives of the Indepen-

met at the Y. M. C. A. Tuesday
night and voted to start their 1910
schedule of play on April 20.

sioner of the Independent loop,
stated, leach league will have a 30
game schedule with both circuits
playing on the same field. If lights
are unobtainable this year, the
leagues will adopt a rs game twilight
schedule"
Both leagues voted on a split sea-
son to determine the championship
play-off rather than the round robin
which proved so unsatisfactory last
year.
Jimmy Moore, the favorite umpire
of last summers play, was elected
head umpire for both loops.
1.-The chances for our getting
lights are excellent" Edwards said
Likewise a fence and bleachers, anG
if preseason indications can be
trusted we'll average from two to
five thousand fans per game. A
small admission fee will be charged
to take care of the expenses"
Several matters pertaining to the
constitution and by laws, as well as
the type of ball to be used were left
dangling until the next meeting.
Representatives of the Taylor-Col
quit Creosoting company, Ethyl
Dow, Wertheimer Bag company
City Optical company, E.. w. God
wins Sons signified their intentions
of coming back in the independent
loop. The White Ice Cream and
Milk company will not sponsor a
team this year. Because of condi
lions peculiar to the Independents,
a five team league was found to be
the most favorable to plan this year.
While it is doubtful if the Junior
Order and Y. M. C. A. put teams n
the Commercial loop, the return OF
the American Bakers, Spofford Mills

will be a certainty. Commissioner
Edwards said there was a good pos.
sibility that sponsors for the latter
two teams might be arranged.
