FROM PRESIDENT

Dates; Cockill Hopes to
Straighten Out Tangle
MANAGER GEORGE COCKILL
In his plans to start New York State
League baseball in Harrisburg Thurs
day, Manager George Cockill last night
struck a snag. President John H.
Farrell is of the opinion that Syra
cuse cannot make the jump to Harris
lurg in time for a game on Thurs
day and has suggested that June 20
be the opening date.
To-day Manager Cockill was in
communication with President Farrell
nnd hopes to straighten out the tangle.
Lew wachter of the Troy team will
confer with President Farrell to-day,
and the official announcement that the
franchise has been transferred will be
made.
Manager Cockill was busy last
night looking tip records of players
who are anxious to come to Harris
burg. It is probable that Euker, the
West End shortstop who made good
in the State League and has been
picked as a comer will be signed.
There will be changes made at first
base and in the outfield. As soon as
he received word to-day from Presi
dent Farrell regarding the schedule
he will announce his plans for Thurs
day.
