La Grande, Oregon, October, 7th, 113. LE WARNICK, City Recorder. 10-7 St. Baker or Lewiston May Be Taken Into Fold In 1914. Walla Walla, . Wash., Oct. 9 That Boise will accept the profeied berth in the Union association next year and lliat the Western Tri-State league will bo recognized with another town in its place, was the opinion of the di rectors of the league after their star chamber session held yesterday after noon in the Commercial club rooms. All the directors were present and ho one else was admitted to the meet ing. ' . Boise's action is not considered a flat withdrawal from the league, be cause of dissatisfaction, but resulted from a friendly and honest consulta tion of the directors in the interests of baseball, it being decided that it is probably better for the league to thus eliminate the long jump from the Idaho town to the others, since Boise was really in the Union association territory and equally as good a league could be organized oft this end of the circuit. The matter will be decided definitely, however, later. All of the Qther directors were of the opinion that their town wanted baseball again next year and that their fans would be ready to get be hind another league organization next year and Secretary Brown stated that there would be no difficulty in get ting another town to take over the Boise franchise. The principal business of the di rectors consisted of equalizing the transportation and hotel expenses of the clubs interested and it was while juggling these figures that it was brought home to the directors the big expense of maintaining a club at Boise. Yakima is anxious for more base ball in this class league and Pendle ton fans can always be depended up on u uacK tno game when spring opens up, while local fans have al ways been in favor of baseball. But one more town is needed then to maintain the league, or possibly three more towns could be admitted, mak ing a six club league. The final action on the matter being postponed until another meeting to be held on January 20, at which time Boise will take final and definite ac tion and other steps will have been taken towards securing another town if necessary. In going ever the gate receipts of the league it was found that Boise had taken in $13,800.25 in 13 weeks of baseball; Walla Walla had taken in 88,701.45 in 10 weeks; Yakima, $7; 576.95 with 11 weeks; Pendleton $3, 869.45 in eight weeks; Baker, $3159.75 in four weeks; and La Grande, $1, 143.35 in three weeks. Total receipts, f38.34C.20. ; ! By uiis can be seen that Baker's re- j ceipts for four weeks were almost as much as Pendleton's for eight weeks. 1 Hotel and transportation bills are pooled and each club pays the same ' amount ,thus lightening the expense i of the heaviest travelers., j At the meeting were: President W. . N. Sweet of Boise, and Directors Eu- 1 gene Kenley of Boise, R. W. Ritner, of Pendleton, R. W. Rundstrum of Yakima and .1. T. Crawford of Walla Walla. Pendleton Club Gels Rebate. Pendleton, Oct. 9. R. W. Ritner, Pendleton director of the Western Tri State league, arrived home last even ing from Walla Walla where he at tended the meeting of the directorate of the league. He succeeded in carry ing his point in the matter of pooling hotel and traveling expenses and the local club will thus secure a rebate of nearly $400. The league is in debt for salaries and each club will have to contribute about $100, he says. Mr. Ritner thinks that fi the league is continued another year, Lewiston or T.aker may take the plave of Boise.
