Bringing Up Father (o) (0) (0) (0) # # By I ROT FfR I THE NFW VALET- I MEW VAI—ET / I KNOW IT- I BE ALL F?l an in valid for one year." This is the way one Harrisburg official put it to-day, in telling about yesterday's meeting in Philadelphia, yesterday. Four repre sentative* were present. Following a consultation on the Tri- State's condition, it was derided to Keep the organization Intact, but to cut out the same for one year. Pres ident George Graham, who returned f i- om the southern training camps jesterday thought the plan a,good ntlc. He announced that the league hail f.?'!ed to fill its circuit, and would not tut teams on the diamond for the coming season. The meeting was called on February 20, at which time the league an nounced that it would make a final effort to get cities to till the vacancies left last year when two of the clubs failed to finish the season, and were carried by the league during the re mainder of the playing season. Ilelp Was Lacking It was thought possible that when it was understood that unless help was advanced that the league would have to quit, that some offers might be forthcoming. An effort was made to arouse interest in several other cities, but the present financial difficulties all over the country and the general foil ing off in interest in minor league baseball operated to thwart the hope* of league officials. It was not found possible to finance clubs in any other cities, and several of the clubs sur viving last year announced that the., could not go on. No official action was taken yester day for the reason that a quorum was not present. Max S. Krilman was; present to represent Allen town: John 11. Myers for the Reading Club, and AY. J. Morris for Trenton, ITarrisburg's representatives was not able to be present. It is the desire of the league to maintain its organization even though there is no playing this year, on the chance that It may be possible to re sume within a year or two tinder bet ter conditions. A later meeting will be held in the hope of maintaining the organization, but the announcement is final that there will be no playing in 1915. President George M. Graham an nounced that no attempt wUI be made to hold the players now under reserve, and that they are free to sign where i they please. —— LOSE GAME AT ALTOONA Central high lost a class contest : at Altoona last night, the high school tossers of that city winning by a score SO to 29.
