Tho games will bo played in Salt Lake but It la stated that there le a'llkollhood of getting a number of gamos for Ogden after the post-league series. Tho negotiations wore closed by Manager Cooley of the Salt Lake aggTcgtlon and acting manager Charles Frelne of the Ogden team. After taking tho matter up with tho members of the Ogden club, Frel-no Frel-no wired Cooley nat he would accept 37 1-2 per cent of the gross receipts of tho five games, as Ogden's share of the money. Tho proposition wai nccepted by Cooloy and thero remains only tho details to be arranged. There will probably be three new men in .tho lineup of tho Ogden club whon it opposes tho Skyscrapers. Manager Man-ager "Dad" Glmlln will resume his railroad work tomorrow and will ''""''''' kfdlH.i therefore be out of tho games. Ono" or two of tho other players may also find It Impossible to partlcipa'te In tho Thursday nnd Friday games. Arrangements are now being made to secure the services of Andy Ju-sin, Ju-sin, the former Ogden hurler, who mm signed up by Dutte and afterwards after-wards went to tho Missoula team of the Union association. He will nssist Froiuo and Murphy on the mound and bo pressed Into service in the outfield. Maun, the former Murray and Salt Lake player, may also woar an Ogden uniform and the backstop work In two or three of the games will be performed per-formed b Alexander, tho Sioux Indian In-dian catcher. Other thnn theso the rogular lineup will be maintained. So far as known at tho present time Manager Cooley will preserve his regular lineup for the scries with tho Ogden club. -His team complotes Its Union association schedule today, whon tbo last game with Boise will bo played. He should have no difficulty diffi-culty ananglng to have his full quotu of players remain over long enough to play this post-season scries, especially espe-cially when It means a nice slice of the gate receipts for every man pat tlclpatlng. It Is quite evident from the attitude of the Salt Lake papers that moro Interest In-terest Is being manifest In tho series from this end of the lino than in the Canltal Cltv nnd m.inv nt tho ntrdn fans will attend the gamo, especially those on Saturday and Sunday It Is not altogethor improbable that arrangements ar-rangements will be mado for a baseball base-ball special, the train to be run on a schedule which will best accommodate accommo-date the local fnns. There Is already much speculation being unbuttoned as to the outcome ot the scries nnd no smnll amount of money will change hands. |
