FAVORS SUNDAY BASEBALL New York Magistrate Would Like Power to Writc Law Which Would Make Sdbbath Games Legal. New York, May 16.—In dismissing & case yesterday brought by the New York Babbath committee Magistrate McQuade said: 1 would like to say to you, Mr. Crichton, that it would please me very much if it were within my power to sign a bill that would legalize the playing of baseball on Sunday, so that an opportunity to see the games such as are played at the Polo Gounds might be af- ' forded the maa who labors on the other six days of the week. It ‘would give the worker an oppor- tunity of seeing; on the only day available to him, a game between ‘well matched clubs, and would di- vert his attention from the many places now frequented which are less likely/to ‘advance his social welfare. A more decent sport than baseball does not exist. We cannot, in my opinion, have too many baseball games on Sunday, as long as they are conducted in this orderly manner and the pub- lic 18 In no wise disturbed. WHAT HURTS BOXING.
