This was due perhaps to lack of enthusiasm on the part of Santa Cruz, San Jose, Stockton and other cities that had been asked to join such an organization. Santa Cruz, like San Jose, found out long ago that it takes real money to keep up a first class minor league team even of low rating in the field, and that's one reason why a movement has been started for a league that will be composed in the main of cities closer to the home center, such as was the case of the old Three league. The latter created plenty of excitement because there was a liberal sprinkling of home players on all the teams.

As to Santa Cruz, It is up to C. W. Hughes to use his own judgment. He owns the baseball plant and put out his own 'money in an effort to popularize independent ball as a week-end and holiday attraction. The crowds were turning out well toward the end of the season and there is no reason why the game can not be brought back to the normal to me chid aireaay own power has been a lightweight squad Santa Cruz has not lost a single game, words everywhere golf is played.

The club members have a surprise The D. D. Wilder Co.

is doing its full share to help exterminate all predatory animals and birds on its back ranch game preserve that covers a big territory. This is the season when these enemies of the air and land do their most destructive work and this is mainly due to the absence of hunters. The migratory song birds are usually out of the country and only the resident species are left. Most of the game birds, particularly the upland varieties belong to this group. Through out the mountainous region of Santa Cruz county hawks and owls are now preying on the remaining covies of quail as well as rabbits.

The farmers can aid this cause by help for their popular pitcher when he finally does put in an appearance at the alleys. An effort will' be made to have fourteen players an each side in tomorrow's game. Game will commence at 2 p. m. ter, present university champion, and Bill Davidson, 'runner-up for the British Columbia title last spring, probably will be the pair selected to make the trip.
