(Continued from Preceding Page.) though; that such a transaction as indicated indi-cated is likely to go through. Next to San Francisco, Oakland, properly handled han-dled and with conditions right, is the league money maker, which is doubtless the reason for the attitude assumed by the Oregonians. A BASEBALL SCHOOL. LOS ANGELES. Sept. 22. T. J. Dar-mody, Dar-mody, vice president of the Angels, has In mind a plan to school our children at home. His idea is to re-establish a class D league on the ashes of the old Southern California circuit, which went out of business twa years ago. The old league paved most of the way and, with a little money behind it. would have finished the season In good shape. The circuit, according to the plans as far as formulated, will include San Bernardino. Pasadena, San Diego, Santa Ana, Vernon, two clubs In the Imperial valley, and one city not yet selected, providing pro-viding an eight-club circuit is deemed practicable. However, six clubs would seem about enough to tackle at the first chew. The new league would he used primarily as a "farm" for the Coast league and would open the portals of opnortunlty to scores of young players who need only a little experience to qualify for faster company. it has been suggested that the proposed pro-posed league play a winter schedule, starting early i n November and winding up about March 1. In this way there would be no .conflict with Coast league ball and the kids would be in good shape for a tryout in the spring training camps. However, the fact that it rains more or less even in the Land of F-unshine during dur-ing the winter might be a drawback to the suggested schedule. There is little doubt that the enterprise could be made to pay under favorable weather conditions. condi-tions. Coast league magnates do not fear there will be any effort to enforce the Sunday closing law In Oregon against Sunday baseball in Portland. However, they do not hesitate to say that If Sunday Sun-day hall Is barred In that city It would mean reading the Beavers out of the Coast league, because otherwise it would not pay. i Cal Swing denies, up and down and ba'-k and forth, the story that he has een doing any dickering for the Oakland Oak-land club. Says there has reen no conference con-ference and that he has not been approached ap-proached in any shape or form to assume as-sume the management of the club. "It's a joke so far as I am concerned," he says, "and you can't make that statement state-ment any ton emphatic to Suit me." It is Dossible that Dutch Kla witter is about to pull a come-back. True, he was given gilt-edge support In the morning game, but he pitched good ball the first good game, by the way, for almost two months. He can be quite a help to the Oaks in these last few weeks If he Is back to form. San Francisco Chronicle. Tom Darmody vows that never agnln will he be caught short-handed in the outfield. "Next season we will have a utility outfielder who can play and hit with any of the regulars," he declares. "A club s secondary strength 1b not of secondary importance, because no chain is stronger than Its weakest link." Eddie HalHnan is playing an exceptional excep-tional game for the Bees. Not only is his fielding, always of a high order, better bet-ter than ever, but Kla batting has picked up about 50 per cent. The quality of his game can only be appreciated when it Is rememberer that he is keeping a player of Jimmy Breton's ahllltv on the bench. Breton might do Just ns well, but Blnnk-enshlp Blnnk-enshlp hardly feels justified In breaking up that infield combination Just for the sake of making a change. Lob Angeles Times. Catcher Flock was the onlv member of the Seal tribe who was left behind. "Wol-verton "Wol-verton figured he could get along with a couple of backstops, although he will have occasion to use all his pitching material. With his long-looked-for big league opening onlv a matter of time. Roy Cor-hnn. Cor-hnn. Seal shortstop. Is beginning to wish that there was no such thing in baseball base-ball as ambition. "The nearer we draw to the end of the season," Roy says, "the more T regret that I have to leave. I know It sounds funny, but I wish I could stay right here in San Francisco us long as I am in baseball and when I'm through move not more than fifty miles away to a little ranch, where I could run down whenever the mood struck me. But one consolation is that If I iion't stick with St. Luis I'm comine right back. And. hy cosh. T won't be so awfully sorry if I don't make good. Only for the Idea of wanting to cap my career with a bjr of major leaeue existence I wouldn't go up at all. No money in the world could make me." |
