That was a great event—one of the most notable runs ever staged on the Pacific Coast McGrath came up from San Francisco to help manage it. had rented the park to the committee for $400, and as I went in to get my check a few days later, McGrath was coming out of the managers’ office. ave you got yours yet, Dug?” asked McGrath. “Better hurry, a8 I just got mine,” and he showed me a roll of bills that would have choked a horse.

LA (Now at the Training Camp of the Seattle Indians) AN JOSE, Cal., March 21,—A special meet ing of the Coast gue directors is expected to be called within a few days, following the announcement that the Seattle club bad been sold to Wade Killefer and Charles Lockhard of Los Angeles. The sale to these interests means a direct blow at William McCarthy, president of the league, who voted against Los Angeles on the draft and on the territorial rights demanded by the Vernon club. aus Seattle, San Francisco, Sacramento and Vernon voted against the draft, and for Vernon to have equal rights with Los Angeles in Los Angeles. Last year, in Portland, Oakland, Portland, Los Angeles and Salt Lake voted the other way. McCarthy cast the deciding vote against the latter four. Now, as the vote shifts the other way, andeas McCarthy's {term of president expires in November, there is little chanee of him being re-elected the way things now stand. It means that the league may have the draft restored and that Vernon may be ousted from Los Angeles. 3 The special meeting may cause things to pop off, as the directors may vote to change the rulings made at Portland by McCarthy. MtCarthy, in a statement issued at San Franctsco this morning, insinuated that William Wrigley, millionaire owner of the Los Angeles and Chicago National league clubs, may be giving his money to Lockhard and ~ | Killefer and that Wrigley was trying to syndicate baseball, | If this can be proved, things may get hot. McCarthy’s statement, in part, follows: “I have known for some time that Killifer and Lockhard were negotiating for the Seattle club. “It is a question whether Lockhard or Wrigley is furnish- ing the money- If it is Wrigley he is open to severe charges | of syndicating baseball by having an interest in more than lone club in n the league.” SOUTHPAWS WIN : MYRTLE DALE SPRINGS, Cal, |March 21.—The left-handers of the Oaks won from the right-1 -handers, i to 7, in yesterday's practice » fo 7, In yesterday's practice falas Your Friends Are Our Friends at the The ZERO 214 Jefferson St. Just back of L.
