Council Bluffs May Get a Franchise in Nebraska State League Next Season - — ___- -___ "■■■ ■ 1 ■ " ' ■ 1 1 ■ "" 1 ■■ ' 11111 "" ' • Lincoln May Drop State Loop Berth to Iowa Interest Dick Grotte's Circuit Closes One of Most Successful Seasons Since Its Or ganization. BY CARROLL R. MULLEN OUNCIL Bluffs may hold a -franchise in the Nebraska State league for the 11)24 season ac cording to pres ent plans of the organize tion which oh Labor day finished its second success ful season since its reorganisa tion in 1922. Hastings, Nor folk and Grand Islnnd have al ready applied for franchises next J*ear and It is likely that one of the other clubs will drop its team from the circuit. Council Bluffs was next considered as a likely spot to place a team. However, It is necessary that President Barney Burch of the Oma ha estern league club give his con sent to placing another club within a ten-mile radius of his holdings. Council Bluffs would he a good spot for the state league franchise. Baseball there has become quite a major sport since the success of the annual Southwestern Iowa tourna ments. Again the Bluffs ball park is within a ten minutes ride from downtown Omaha and when the Buf faloes are away a largo number of iooal fans would undoubtedly go to . Council Bluffs for the games which would be scheduled there when Oma ha is on the road. Lincoln May Drop Out. Lincoln, pennant winners of the tl*23 season, may not rejoin the league tn-xt year. The Capitol City owners did not find last season's club the fponey winner which they expected, and may drop the franchise. : The Nebraska State league is a Class D organization with each club's monthly salary limit set at $2,300, ex clusive of the manager's compensa tion. Most of the clubs are backed as an advertising proposition by the business men of the town which holds *1 franchise. Ail clubs had a success ful season, according to President Dick Grotte of Omaha. Sales of players is a large source of revenue to ths teams. Several deals have gone through already and a number are pending which should be completed by September 15. the last date minor league clubs can sell play ers before the draft. The largest price paid for a state league player this season was $2,500 which Short Stop Leonard Metz of (ho Grand Island club brought from the Philadelphia Nationals. Grand island also has disposed of Pitcher W. Shupe to the Syracuse club of the international league and Second Base man Thompson to the Omaha club. Catcher Luebbe may go to the St. Louis Nationals. However, the deal la tending and remains only for Lucil le's decision to continue In baseball next year to bind It. Luebbe, an imaha boy, has decided to remain out >f the game and go Into business with ils father. Lincoln Sells Several Stars. Lincoln has sold Outfielder Purdy rnd Catcher Fred Conkey to the Chl ■ago White Sox. Outfielder Tanner las been sold to the San Francisco -lub while Pitcher Stokes may go to t Coast league club which has been negoiating for his services. Beatrice sold Pitcher Demarest to Pittsburgh, while Shortstop Quinn is. to receive a trial with the Kansas! ?tty Blues, his sale depending on his ihowlng. Falrbory again this year has dis posed of more players than any otheri "lub In Grotte’s circuit. Catcher Mc Dermott goes to the St. Louis Cards. Outfielder Blues goes to the Houston, Tex., club. Third Baseman Hudgens lias been sold to the Cards. Inflelder Mee to Fort Smith and Pitcher Sian tdn to Ran Francisco. I,ee may join lhe Omaha club. He has been on the voluntary retired list but played In the Southwestern Iowa tournament with Sheldon. Burch expects to com plete the dc-al for his service^ this week. Pitcher Koupal of Hastings Is like ly to appear In an Omaha uniform, although there are several attractive deals pending for the services of this right-hander. Outfielder Hogan was sold to Cleveland for a nice sum and I'ippley goes to the Fort Smith club. Cassell, Kittenbeil and Noack are others from the Hastings club whose aieg are pending. Yankees Seek Casey. First Baseman Casey of the Nor olk club Is a much-sought Individual. \mong the clubs which are dlcker ng for hirn Is the New York Yan <ees. Pitcher Federle has attracted nuch attention and the Norfolk man igement has several line offers for dm. Pitcher Prnul and Outfielder ’eterson will he sold to one of sev ual Class A league clubs which are reeking their services. Beatrice found the franchise an ex pensive one because they had no leHS than 45 men on the payroll at differ ent times during the season. Norfolk signed the least number of players, IS having appeared on the payroll. The team which completed the season was practically the same which start ed the pennant race. A league meeting has been called it Lincoln Tuesday, when all business •ifTairs for the season will be settled. The success of the league Is a feather In the cap of President Dick Orotte. He took over the executive duties of the circuit when the late C. J. Miles became 111 and was elected to the post after Mr. Miles' death. Out-state advices are that he will ' again he elected prexy of the organi sation when the spring meeting of I In- circuit is called.

Lincoln, Sept. S.—Eddie Kane, de bonair and clever, as usual, manager of Tommy Gibbons, the only man who has stayed 15 round* with Jack Demp sey world heavyweight pugilist champion, left today for New York following a two-day visit with George G. Koster, state commissioner of boxing, game hunting and fishing. Kane was enrouto to New Y'ork in an effort to get Jack Kearns, man ager of Dempsey, to accept an offer of $500,000 for Dempsey to again meet Gibbons at San Pedro, Cal., No vember 18. This offer has been made by James Sant weir, representing returned wounded soldiers, who have been guaranteed for their share at least $40,000 regardless of the gate receipts, according to Kane. Wants Official Sanction. Sant weir Is only awaiting the sanc tion of the major general In charge of tha wounded soldiers. Upon receipt of hi* official sanction, Hantwelr is prepared to deposit $40,000 as a guar antee to the wounded soldiers and $600,000 for tha purpoac. “'Santwelr will have no difficulty doing business with us.” Kane said. "Wo have no alibis for the Shelby fight and it is up to Mr. Kearns to say, in New York, when I arrive whether ha desires to mutch his man In a scientific fight and not a wrest ling match at San Pedro, Cal., Nov. 18," Kane said. Gibbons is now In vaudeville on the western const. "Gibbons may appear In Omaha In a few weeks," Kane said.
