Association Plans for
Some Post-Season Games

'der tentative plans announced here

tion, the winner of the association
pennant will play the champions

.which has the International league
pennant sewed up.
Original plans had called for post
season series in which the cham
pions of the three leagues were to
meet. The change in plans, Mr.
'Hickey said, was the result of the
difference in closing dates of the
league seasons and the disinclina
tion of Mike Kelley, manager of the
St Paul club, American Association
leader, to make the long jump from
St. Paul to Baltimore and thence
.to the Pacific coast.
, President Hickey says he has
submitted his plan to Manager
Dunn of the Baltimore club and of
ficials of the Pacific Coast league,
where Vernon and Los Angeles are
in a close race for the pennant.

colored team, will play the Longe
ways of Council Bluff at Rourke

header. These teams have been trying to
get together for some time and
now that the arrangements are com
pleted. a great battle is expected.
