I always have liked baseball and have wanted to get in it, but there fs no comparing it with football, because they are very different. One is a college game and the other a professional sport of national scope, I think I know a good deal about football. If you grant that I do, then you will appre- clate what George Stallings knows about baseball. He knows twice as much about his game aa I do about mine, “It is not my purpose te interfere with Mr. Stallings, It will be my enjoyment watching him work.” George Stallings is as well pleased with Mr, Haughton as the new Prest- dent is with him. I have been through some tough sledding in my baseball life,” said George, “and | only wish that I had had @ man like Haughton to deal with all the time. They have given me @ contract at a big salary—the biggest I ever got in my life—and 1 am very well satisfied, In fact, I am delighted, Though all the magnates and by- standers have been ready and walt- ing for twenty-four hours, the meat- ing will not begin officially until this afternoon, It will then be reported to Gov.
