Ia league SUGGESTED. Some Baseball Fans Thiirlc It Would Add Interest To The Sport. , INCLUDES SIX TEAMS. * - ? A Little Chat Between Baseball Men Which Might Lead To The Settlement Of The Question, Who Is Champion Of The State ? Scheme For Next Year ? Might Be Carried Out. When several baseball fans gathered together the other evening the con versation naturally drifted towards topi OB of the diamond. After several matters of more or less importanoe had been threshed ont to the general satisfaction of all present, some one set up the query "Whv isn't there a semi-professional league of baseball olnbs in New Jersey?" All agreed that a league of the kind would be a boon to baseball inasmuoh ?s it would add interest to the games ?nd would moreover settle the vexa tious question of the state champion ship, the right to which title is usual ly claimed by several teams. An objeotion would probably be that x "with teams in Eastern, Western and Southern New Jersey travelling ex penses would be too heavy to make the scheme feasible. In view of this insurmountable diffioultv it was thought best to limit the scope of the proposed league to Eastern New Jer- : sey with the proviso that if the West- 1 ern and Southern teams could also be banded together the winners of eaoh league should play a series of games for the championship of the state. Then the fans took up the task of selecting teams to compose the league. Atter considerable elimination the candidates narrowed down to six teams as follows : Orange, Irvington, Morristown, Madison, Westfleld and of oourse the Marions. The reason ) for their selnotion was furnished in tfhe fact that, because of their proximi tT ten dollars would easily cover a team's travelling expenses. Then oame the most serious objec tion of all, the unwillingness of most of the teams to leave their home grounds on Saturdays. All agreed that this was a very difficult problem, in fact that unless a solution satisfac tory to^all the teams oould|be arrived at, further discussion of the league would be useless. Finally a plan was evolved whioh it was thought would meet most of the requirements, or at least render the scheme tangible. With six teams in the league it would be necessary for every team to play fifteen games, that is three with eaoh opponent. In order to remove the difficulty raised by teams whioh were unwilling to play abroad on Saturdays it was proposed that ten of eaoh team's games be played on Wednes day, that is five games at home and five abroad. That would leave five more games to be nlaved and there could, with little inconvenience to any of the teams, be played on Satur days, three of the teams playing two Saturdays at home and three abroad and the other three playing three Sat urdays at home and two abroad. This would necessitate only three end of the week games to be played away from home by any team during the season. \ After disoussing other points con nected with the conduct of such a league the fans adjourned their meet ing agreeing to keep on talking about the scheme and to Bee some of ?thoE6 connected with the different teams and ascertain what could be done in the matter. If the plan was imprac ticable fqr this season, something might be done next year. At any rate they thought it would do no harm to give the matter an airing, and with that end in view they sought the aid of the Evening News sporting editor with the result that their views are presented above for the edification of local fans and with the wish that their dreams may be realized. Sharkey Defeated Dwyer. Tom Sharkey won from Prof. M. J. Dwyer in their handioap wrestling match Thursday night in which Dwyer agreed to throw Sharkey twice in an hour. Dwyer got one fell in twentv five minutes, but could not pin Shar key's shoulders to the mat in the re maining thirty-five minutes. Advertising is the life of trade. THREE TEAMS CONSOLIDATED. | Friday Nights, Schutzers And In dependents Made One Last Night. After the bowling match between the Friday Nights and Schutzer-In dependents at Hartman 'a alleys last night in whioh two games were play ed, each team winning one, the Schut zers and Independents consolidated with the Friday Nights and elected Q. Evans secretary. Next year when the bowling season opens the whole team will bowl as the Friday Nights. The Schntzers-Independents won the I first game in the match last night by | 60 pins. In the second game the Fri day NightB showed their opponents! bow to roll the score up and they oame | ahead in this game by 105 pins. Will iam Hartman, of the Sohntzers-Inde- 1 pendents, bowled the highest score, making 304 in the last game. Charles Seel, of the same team, rolled up the lowest, his soore being 99 pins in the last game. After the game was over a grand | supper was ready for all the bowlers. When the Friday Nights won the prize of $10 for being the best bowlers in the Inter-State League team, they decided to have a good time out of it. They invited the Sohutzers and Inde pendents to come and help them par take of their feast. The gnests agreed to pay all over $10 that the feast cost. This was considerable. The follow ing is the lineup of each team with the scores: Friday Nights.
