This they both did and, with- out a doubt, the break in the ranks of the team has been cemented more solidly than ever before, A number of the members of the team and of the club who were present at the meeting, voiced their opinions of the argument. They stated that they thought that both men were in the wrong due to the fact that they allowed their feclings to run away with their good judg- ment. Many of them thought that the dispute should be settled be- tween the two men involved and that this should be done without delay. It wis explained to the members of the club that the reasons for the dispute were not important, but its results might he for the futurc of the club. Tt was shown that Coach Jack Argosy had a following of friends as did Matty Hayes and if the dispute was to be kept up, an inevitable split would be caused in - (the ranks of the Rangers cluh tha: would hode 111 for the future. Hayes stated that he was sorry that he had acted in the manner he had at the game two wecks ago last Sun day and Coach Argosy admiticd that he lost his head. Both of the men stated that they were only too willing 1o let bygones be bygones and to work for the bet- terment of the team and of their club. The mecting ended with everyone being satisfied that the feclings aroused hy the actions of the coach and team's catcher would be forgotten in the spirit of working for the club and Coach Argosy stat- ed that as far as he was concerned, Matty Hayes would be welcomed back on the team if he would play {the game as he should and could. Hayes said that the mistake I made two weeks ago would be good lesson to him and stated that |the members of the team and of the | Rangers club could feel assured that |he would not duplicate the action: lagain. A great deal of enthusiasn |was shown at the meeting over the |prospects of the tecam and it war evident that the Rangers wanted (¢ make peace with their members b |cause of the fact that Matty Hayes |name was entered in the team's lisi lto play in th City league. Tvery thing looks rosy for the Rangers club now. rm—————————— 25% D! OUNT ON ALL BASEBALL, GOLF AND TENNIS SUPPLIES HADFIELD' SPORTING GOOS‘ 15 MAIN ST. Open Eves. # |head T GAME TO P. & F.
