At the present time the of dissension in the Seattle ba According to reports in baseball cir cles, there are two factions of stock: | holders who are trying to run the other members out of the club to ob- | tain control of the stock.

With Wille and Miller in the outfield; Murphy, Bohne and Guisto for the infield, and Elliott and Mitze behind the bat, the Oaks have the nucleus for a powerful team There are a lot of fans around the cireuit who still think that the Oaks | would have finished in the money if Hack M the slugging outfileder had been able to play all year, Hack was put out of the fray early in the season by a broken ankle.
