At a well attended meeting of the base ball enthusiasts of this city Inst night ex-President Slavers of the Statt league and Henry Voss were elected as delegates to the meeting of the league, with Instructions to do all In their power to reduc the salary limit to S1.O00 per month. - Ed Williams, Fred Langmann, W, H. Harrison, Dr. Seal and Frank Win- dolph were elected, as a board of man agers for th next year. The Grand Island management closes the season wtih about a $1,600 deficit nearly all Of which, however, has been occasioned b ythe building Of fine new grandstands and grounds and the com plete fencing of the same. This leaves i the management tih grounds at very little expense ror tne next two years, However, It Is the conviction here that the practice of the last year,' If repeated, w"in Weir ttfe demise: of the league W a ,, very short time. This practice has 'been the excceai.?f the limit?' Sdme "teams were at time this year close to $2,000 per month in salary payments,; and.the patronage will not afford this close ap proxlmfttlon of the Western league limit Two year ago, While representing' tne largest town in the league; Grand Island's delegation' fought for a lower limit and will do so again this year, and hopes to enlist the co-operation of some of th smaller cities In the circuit I..'''

The Ked Sox will not be conceded any world's championship by me until they have beaten the champions of my circuit. I have every confidence In MoGraw and In the Giants. I do not say that they will win, but I hope for the best. ; 1 1 think that the world's series Is a grand thing for base ball, .and nothing would please me more than to be presi dent of the league whtch annexes the greatest honor of the pastime. There Is more at stake this year than usual, for In th matter of world's cham pionships' played under national commis sion Rupervlslon the American league and the National league stand tied In the yearly test. 'aU;:,'- ;' ':- . There Is too much of the element of chance In a short series of this nature. The Giants, I believe, are better qualified to battle for base ball supremacy than they were a year ago against the Ath letics. At that time they gave a grand account of themselves. They are now more experienced,, and unless the -Red Sox are quite superior to Connie Mack's wonderful collection we have a great chance to land the victory. . ; . Naturally. I may be a bit. prejudiced, but I think New York is going to .float the world's series flag In the very near future unless thwarted by an inevitable circumstance. - TOM LYNCH. By BYROX B AX CROFT JOIllN'SOX, President Of America League. The American league will maintain its supremacy In organised base ball. I have no doubt about this. Boston la the great est bunch of champions that ever won the pennant In my circuit. The team which Jake Stahl commands Is capable, game and consistent, ., No ' team ever showed uch marked consistency during the full campaign. 1 do not underesti mate th strength of the National league champions. New' York has a fine team, but I don't think It is any stronger than ia year ago. On the other hand, I think that Boston today is the equal of the Athletics of 1911. - . 7 In a short series pitching usually' cuts a great figure, and no better pitching staff can be found anywhere in the coun try than the corpn commanded by Mr. StahL Joe Wood should offset the great Christy. Mathewson. , K.nilnatlng these two, Boston' has all tne advantage. " I would not be at all surprised to see a long series, but as I raid in my Opening sentence, 1 have no doubt that the Ame lean league will maintain Its supremacy in organised base ball. , i I , I ' x - i f- t.
