His first year in the league was his tast. EB SEBALL Is due for a year of : B’ prosperity. While this statement has been made by Beariy all hands connected with the game, just the same as {t has at the beginning of every league race, it looks like the real dope this time, and no mistake. gee fs no doubt In the mind of student of the national pas- time but that the Federal league put a mighty big crimp tn things last year. The Federal league and the war in Europe, to .be more exact. agen @his season, however, there Ie no Federal league, and business con- ditions in the United States have righted themselves and are now reported as being in good shape fn all parts of this country. This is, indeed, the year of promise. aes paternal fireside to see that things are better. Conditions in Seattle are much better than at this time last year. Then look at the Northwestern league. How much better does it look this year? you ask. Here is the an- Swer—just 100 per cent. Bs et There is no denying that the addi- tion of Butte and Great Falls has been a boon to the circuit.

FALLS Covering the right-fleld job for be Great Falls club in practice is Heine Zimmerman, who cavorted in the outer works for the Spokane team back about five years ago. Zimmerman is showing good stick ability for the Electrics, and ap ears to be headed for the regu- jar berth with the club. WOLFER MAKES GOOD Tke Wolfer, the Portland lad, who has made good with Spokane as far as he has gone, may get a chance at first base, in the event of Smith failing to come thru. Wolfer is a second baseman by trade, and Williams believes the kid might do on the first pillow. Wolfer’s hit- ting Is good enongh, and with Har. per for the outfleld place, the pos- sible shift could be worked out E onicely. Jess Willard’s title is in danger again.
