Following a meeting of the of
ficials of the Interstate Baseball
League, held at the Brunswick Ho-
tel in Lancaster, Pa, on Monday
afternoon, Jerry Nugent, president
of the league, called in the sports
writers and broadcasters who were
present, and gave them an outline of
the happenings at the meeting.
Highlights of the meeting were:
A tentative 140-game schedule was
drawn up, with the final draft to
be presented and approved at a
special meeting to be held in York,
Pa, on Monday. The tentative
schedule provides for the season to
open on Wednesday, April 80, and
close on Sunday, September 7, with
Hagerstown opening in York for a
two-game series, before returning
home for their first home game on
Friday, May 2.
Four newTmpires have been sign
ed and five of last seasons arbiters

There will be no All-Star game
and each club will set its own adj
mission prices and also takes what
ever steps they deem necessary to
curb gambling at the games. The
League, however, has banned the
public from the clubhouses, restrict
ing that privilege to sports writers
and sports broadcasters, with the
club managers deciding when such
visits will be permitted.
Nugent closed the press confer
ence by announcing that he well
coined at all times, suggestions and
constructive criticism from the press
and radio and that his one ambition
was to make the Interstate League
the best league in baseball.
The third annual Sportswriters
and Broadcasters Associations ban
quet was held in the Moose Hall in
the evening, with the huge dining
hall filled to capacity. The commit
tee appointed by George Kirchner,
president of the association, did a
swell job, providing a fine meal and
topping it off with excellent enter
tainment.
Hagerstown was well represented,

and sports announcers who are mem
