Phone 727 or127 ALBANY IS AFTER BALL FRANCHISE Word has been received from tho secretary of the Interstate league by "Frisco Edwards, man ager of the Salem Senators, that the Albany team fs desirous of en tering the league In place of the Vancouver .earn. The Vancouver team is in the cellar position with no wins and have made a poor showing so far thin season. Red Rupert, manager of the Al bany team, has expressed a desire to take over the Vancouver fran chise in the effort to give Albany better baseball. The present stand ing of tlie Vancouver club, which Albany would h;ive to take, does not matter to Rupert. The Al bany team is going good and they are afraid of losing their crowds if they are not able to furnish bet ter competition for the Albany fans. The secretary of the league has written to the manager of the Vancouver team but has receiveJ no answer as yot. The league is not forcing them to withdraw but merely giving them the opportun ity if they desire. Any action must be ratified by tho league managers and a meeting may be necessary. It Is thought that a change would be acceptable to the rest of the teams. The change would mean a slight revision of the schedule to give Al bany some games for tho balance of tho year. This would be the only objection as tho Senators are only scheduled tor one more game away from home and the change would force them on the road a few more games. Kelso has also written to Man ager Edwards to get a two-game series with the Senators some time during the middle of the month. They are asking for a guarantee which seems too largo, inasmuch as the games would have to be played during the middle of the week and they would not draw exceptionally well, ft Is thought. It would also handicap the locals as most of the Senators are out of town an It Is hard to get all of them together any other time than Su nday. HEALTH TESTS Sublimity. Or., June 0.
