WADE NAMED HEAD
OF COMMITTEE TO
BRINCSP0RT HERE
Will Attend Meetings OF
Tri- State League; To-
bacco Circuit
BY EDWARD SACHS

Voting in favor of resumins
overtures to organized baseball, a
meeting of the diamond sport fans
at the court house last night voted
]. E. L. Wade as chairman OF a
committee to gain, if possible, the
city's admittance to a Class 3
league and if failing in that a
Class D league.
Wade was also authorized to rep
resent Wilmington in meetings OF
the Tobacco State league and the
Tri-State league.
Attendance at the meeting prov
ed disappointing to both Wade
and c. M. Harrington, president
of the Chamber of Commerce.
However, a day-long rain and
several conflicting lodge meetings
were given as causes for the
limited attendance.
The meeting discussed at length
the advantages Of the two different
class circuits. It was the opinion
of one group as expressed by
lunnberman James Bryant and
others, that the expenses of operat-
ing a Class B club would be more
than Wilmington could support.
However, Harrington and Wade
both seemed Of the opinion that
this city could support the higher
brand Of the ball.
Bryant informed the floor that
he would purchase $500 OF non
profit stock in the league if it were
Of the Class D classification and
81, 900 if it were in the higher
brand of ball.
However, the club will probably
be financed-if one is formed-by
work of the Wade committee which
will work closely with the Chamber
of Commerce, the group that
sponsored last nights meeting.
Wade told the group that it was
still a possibility that franchise
in the Piedmont league may be
open. He also outlined in a re-
view of past baseball dealings in
which the city has been active
since October. Advantages and dis
advantages of the different leagues
- travelling distances, financial
obligations, etc,-were outlined by
the councilman.
In brief, the Tri-State league will
call for the greatest financial out
lay because Of higher deposit
required, and greater travelling
distances between league cities.
The Tobacco state league -
which is still in the formulative
stage - will not call for great
cash outlay but will present an
inferior brand Of ball.
Which ever league the city
chooses will find present baseball
parks in Wilmington unsuited for
baseball, Shuney Brittian told the
group.
1.-THE ballpark here is the 1ousi-
est 1 have ever seen," said the
former MINIS athletic great and
professional baseball player.
Wade will begin today to form
his committee and said that as
soon as the city obtains a franchise
in a league he will call meeting
Of the general group which met at
the courthouse last night.

To make sure there can be no

addition to the Coast circuit, the
Dixie League and American Asso-

Nearing the end of their longest
and probably most important an

monguls threw this one more pitch
in their out-and-out war with the
All-America, and then turned to

The notwithstanding has been a
stumbling block for three days as
the magnates sought to build a

from the locked meeting room was
that the job might not be finished
until late tonight.
Outside the meeting room, mean
time, the National League champ

arrangements for a working agree

changes. This was the fourth such
arrangement reached. between Ma

clubs, following those made by
the New York Giants and San

In announcing that the "Nation-

with the five-year ban on contract

that the action would keep his
club from using two of its top

Parsons, former Southern Cali
