Baseball league by unanimous
rote of the directors at a meeting
In the chamber of commerce
quarters last night. Bert Cook,
of Klamath Palls, was elected
vice-president, W . < H.

secretary, and A1 Plche of Med­
ford. treasurer.
The league season w ill open a
week from Sunday, May 16, with

cross bats with Klam ath Falls at
Klam ath Falls in the opener. A ll
of the Medford home games w ill
be played on the Jackson county
fa ir grounds where a fast dia­
mond has been put in shape.
F or Clean Hport
The directors adopted a com­
plete set of by-laws by which It
Is proposed to conduct a semi-
professional or amateur baseball
league. The rules insist there
shall be clean sportsmanship at
a ll time*, and it was W ‘ that the
starting of the Southern Oregon
Baseball league would put the na­
tional pastime on a sound basis
In this part of the state.
Under the laws of the league
each team Is entitled to 20 play­
ers on Its roster, but new players
cannot be added after the season
opens unless they have lived-4a
one of the three
counties

least I I days prior to playing In
a game.

by the directors, Ashland will
have seven games on its local
grounds at Jackson Hot Springs.
Medford and Grants Pass also
w ill have seven games on home
grounds, while Klam ath
Falls

Klam ath was given the two ex­
tra home games because It ia

drawing card and would thus aid
the other three teams from a f i­
nancial standpoint.
Business Manager John Enders
of the Ashland baseball club an­
nounced today that approximate­
ly *600 has been subscribed for
