IcVnclinff nine is tVicirlu for the Xcw International League BinEhamton Club, piloted bv no ies a baseball chaiactcr than VranU Schulte one-time member of the most famous of famous Chicago Cubs. For weeks Heading lias been all agog about its return to the baseball hori zon, ncre, there nud everywheie within a radius of miles about this thriving city baseball v,as the uppermost topic next to the return of the Iron Division from France, and, of course, the Lib erty Loan. League baseball is not new to Head ing. Darken back to the davs of .T. Franklin Itaker, when he broke so many fences that Connie Mack decided to take him to the Philadelphia Athletics where they have concrete walls. This was the age of the Tri-State League. Reading did itself -nobly in a baseball way then, but great ns were the Tri State days they are not to be compared to the wonderful manner in which the fans of this municipality turned out to )greet Charley Dooin nnd his favorites at today's opening of the "big little" International League. Handicap after handicap lins been overcome bv the perseverance of the backers of the Heading Club. Tirst it was to get an International franchise. 'Ibis was no easy task in iew of the 5i eat come-back baseball is making thin year. Tans Do Their Bit Reading business men nnd fans dug deep into their pockets for the neces sary financial aid. Thc did not whimper. Slorc than a sufficient amount was subscribed to assure a winner. Then came the mnttcr of a manager who could whip a team into shape iu a short time. Clinrley Doom was promptI nominated because of his past experience as a playci nnd manager in the National League. Dooin has worked wonders in the short time he has held the managerial icins. Though the backstop-manager lias twenty-six iilajors heie at the present time, numbered among them bo nng several former big leaguers, he does not intend to rest on his laurels. Noth ing short of a pennant winner will-satisfy him and he will continue to make hanges until he has found that com lination. Reading fans are satisfied that Dooin i". the man to lead them to victorj. Central Park .Cfltne. next the, idqstiqntto a tcn trriilylocafcd park, Lnucr Park, near thelieart of the tit , w'as'thn'Unanfmpus i lioit e, but many repairs had to be made before the field was ready for combat ant. Just as business men and fans rallied to aid in bringing a league club here, so they have taken n hand in as sisting to get the park into playing shape, When Mavor Hdward II. Tilbert til rows out the first ball today. Lauer Park will not be at its best because there are a number of extensive im provements still in course of construc tion. It looked as though Reading would be1 weak on pitchers, but the array of talent already reported makes Dooin and Secretary Charlfe Kelchncr very hope f illt in this direction. Some of the material is very promising, and inside of two weeks Rending is expected to have a club good for the top of the sec ond division, say fans who have seen the men at practice. pitchers arc Longacrc and Kccfe, sent by Connie Mack; Sheridan, who comes from Brooklyn; .lack i;nright, the foi mer Yankee; Bill Donohue, former State League hurler; Brown, a young-j steiwho looks promisiug; Smith, Gin la, Wlnprr.

H was organi7ed in IS')2 ns the Enstcin League nnd changed to the International in 1012. Owing to the war trinditions it was necessnry for the league to hold it re organisation in the spring of 1017, when the old league wns dissolved and the New International League oigan irctl. Put is is virtually the same league. Next to the Nntm.ial League this big minor lias been in the field longei than any other baseball circuit. 1 ide Changed FulU does not look for any baseball miracle, but he does think that the baseball tide has changed and that from now on the minors, especinllj the International, will ictiiru to former prosperity. "The International League has had it? shaie of woes in the last five years," snid I'ultje, "and we had to work hard last winter to whip the league In shapct so that we could start the 1010 scaton with eight well-balanced clubs. Hap pilv the most difficult part of our task is behind us and we now sec clear skies ahead.

I admit that golf, tennis, nutomobiles nnd moving pictures hne cut into baseball, patronage, but that is true of the lartre cities ns well as the smaller ones. And with the countr back on a peaceful condition I think that majors will have, one of their greatest seasons. I Baseball America's Game i "Raseball is Amciica's game and that applies to cities of 200,000 nnd to cities of 2,000,000, to cities of 2000 and cities I of 20,000. I "We will have to go through with a period of reconstruction slowlj. One or' two good years will re-establish the en-1 tiic iniuor league business on n hnn ' .foundation. Many of our players are! ypuug, but they htie the nmbition, nud I look for n splendid race. "I think much of the btiength in our league lies in the managers appointed by the different dubs. They arc all big leaguers, and with the exception of one or two managed clubs in the btg leagues. I think if you examine the list of our 1010 managers and comp-ire them with the International League managers of the last few jears you will find that the International League is moling foiward and is preparing for better days."
