' SM 8 se se The old “Iron Man” should be treated with some consideration by the league. He was a famous character in baseball in his day and after salting away a nice little pile he planted in Tacoma, expecting to sit in an easy chair in his de- clining years and let the Tacoma ball club make him a living. Instead, he might as well have thrown his life's savings into the sound, for all the good the investment did him. Reese s The Tacoma fans didn’t support a ball club when they had it, and should not receive much consideration, despite all their howling, now that McGinnity has a chance to per-| haps get back a little of the coin he blew in the “City of Destiny.” RBR2anr ss rom now on we will have to for; lot easier for some players to our little pleasure of asking) jump to the Feds than {t has been the U. of for them to hop back to O.

Where the club owners a year ago were forced to discuss only “war measures” against the Fed- erals, all was serenity and optt- mism today because of the recent ending of the baseball war. The spirit of trading was in the alr ev- erywhere in the lobbies of the Wal- dorf hotel before the magnates went into formal session there. The demise of the Federal league has released a whole flock of play- ers of the first order of talent and nearly every club owner was “load- ed up” with material for effecting advantageous trades, BASKETBALL STANDING Played.
