(SPER IS IGNORED IN TRIN SUGGESTION FOR ORGANIZED BALL} | League Composed of Ten Towns, Including Chey- enne, With Sterling as Hub of Circuit Proposed; Meeting Is Called for November 19 ~ Casper, winner of the pennant in the Midwest len sus fae for the season of 1921 and admittedly one of the best baseball towns in the Rocky Mountain region, is ignored in tions emanating from Sterling for the organization of a class C or D league for next year, composed of Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming towns and cities. it is believed that the great traveling expense incurred in jumping to Cas- per is responsible for the omission as economy seems to be the keynote of the proposal. Proposed salary limits Ptor Class © ball are $2,650 and for Class D ball $2,400. E. T. Conquist of Sterling, in a ter addressed to the chambers of com- merce of ten towns invites them to a conference to be held in Sterling. The cities included are Brush, Fort Morgan, Fort Collins, Greeley and Sterling, Colo., Sidney, ~ Alliance, Scottsbluff and North Platte, Neb., and Cheyenne, Wyo. ‘The suggestion that the league en- ter organized ball as against the “outlaw” class of the Midwest league is based on the charge that “the players are outlaws and seek to build up the fans and supporters of base- pall because they demand prices for their services so high that to run a ball team for the average town of this size is too great a burden.” Jt is urged that players. will be more deserving of confidence “under the penalty of heavy fines and a sal- ary limit that will not permit one town to hire eae larger sal- friendly rivalry, which would fncrease attendanca at games and “Ther more eneral popular support: ere are aes advantages to be obtained from the franchise and from the possible sale of players who are under bind- ing contract, the supporters of organ- ized ball declare. It is proposed that the conference for organization of the league be held at the Hotel Graham in Sterling Nov: ember 19. Sterling would be in center ot the proposed road con- nections between the other towns, however, ure good and:it is calculated that all of the cities would enjoy ap- proximately equal advantages in the matter of traveling costs. The cost of a ball club in an or- ganized league of class C is estimated at about $15,000 for the season of five months, and the. costs in a league of Class D at $12,000, These figures compare with a total cost of approxi- mately $40,000 for the Sterling ball club of 1921 in the Midwest league, ———__ SANTA FE TO USE NEW MEN TOPEKA, Kan., Oct. 26—Simultan- eous with advertisements in the news papers here soliciting applications of men to take the place of strikers, 2 statement by W.
