The Blue Ridge League is still flghting over the admission of two more towns. The controversy back of the addition of other territory is mostly.. over the question of Sunday baseball. Three clubs want Sunday games, and three are against it. It la said there may be a split if Cumber land and Prostburg arc admitted just because Sunday baseball may be play ed in those towns. Inquiries have been made as to what is going to happen with the Central Pennsylvania League. Offi cials of that organization are silent when asked if there will be baseball this summer. It is said that New Cumberland and Steelton are the only towns offering any inducements for a team. Hlghspire and Middletown, it is said, are dead to professional base ball.
