BASEBALL LEAGUE ADOPTS SCHEDULE FOR NEW SERIES ING HELD LAST NIGHT; SE-| RIES TO BE OPENED worse] DOUBLEHEADER SUNDAY “ | At a meeting of baseball af held last night at the office of jRogelio Gomez, plans were per) fected by the newly-organized Is-| land City League for the playing: of a series of games during the, winter months. The proposed| | schedule of games was adopted, jwith a doubleheader to open the; iseries at the Navy Field © on’ Sunday, December 24. The open-! ing games will be between Pirates land Pelicans, and Stars and Slug- gers. The following team managers and players, who were present at} entered the league: Pirates, J.) Mendoza, manager; Stars, P, Ace-/ vedo, manager; Pelicans, G. Gar- cia, manager; Sluggers, Roy Ham- jlin, manager. It was decided to play a split | series, with the understanding| ‘is to play the victors of the second half. | It was ruled that all first games will be called promptly at 1:30, to’clock, with the second game to| follow 20 minutes after the com- pletion of the first contest. Howard Pent and Valdez were \selected as umpires for the series,| |with A. Martinez to. serve as! jmanagers of the various teams will settle their own differences according to agreement, with no league officers to be appointed. The managers of the respective teams express hope that the fans} will patronize the games as lib- erally as possible, as it was shown | that it will be quite expensive to play a doubleheader each ; and every time. Among the star pitch-} ers to be seen during the games will be Lopez, Bethel, Lucillo,, Sanchez, Sevilla, Ralinero, Griffin, | Casa and Gates. The following is the schedule for the first half: December 24—Pirates vs Peli-! jeans; Stars vs Sluggers. | December 25—Sluggers vs Pi- jrates; Stars vs Pelicans.
