MINOR LEAGUERS CONSIDER PLANS FOR NEW CIRCUIT Ohio and Pennsylvania Survi vors Prepare to Reorganize in Class D.

MAY BE EIGHT-CLUB AFFAIR Election of Officers Postponed Until All Towns Are Represented. Baseball men from towns in West Virginia and the Buckeye State met yesterday afternoon in the Hotel Henry, for tho purpose of forming a minor leajue. Organization waa not perfected owing to the of several representatives whose teams are candidates for-berths in the new circuit. A number of thes clubs hi.d proxies present, but It as voiced by those in attendance that all applicants for franchises should be directly represented. The result was that another meeting has been announced for Tuesday, January the Henry.

Ueorge V. Travis, of East Liverpool, has teen enthusiastically working up Interest in the proposed circuit, and he was chosen as temporary chairman, yir. Travis favors the reorganization of the Ohio and Pennsylvania league, which was all shot to pieces when Akron, Canton, Youngstown and Erie were swallowed up by the expanding Centrals. His efforts to get the surviving clubs together wiith other ambitious towns Interested in the enterprise have met with the approval of many well known baseball men and It was with this assurance that the meeting took place yesterday In Pittsburgh. Mr.

Travis and J. II. Simms East Liverpool's interests at the meeting. Tom Haymond and Jack Linn camo from Kairmont to apply for a franchise on behalf of West Virginia's loyal fans. Steubenville sent three delegates C.

V. Neville. Isaac Rice and Joe Mike Doolan, the big shortstop of the Philadelphia Nationals. attended the Pittsburgh gathering. It revelops that number of enthusiasts from down the Ohio river have -secured the ball grounds at Mingo and desire to enter a club In the new league.

They claim to hold a lease that was granted them the first of the present year. lHolan says he holds a 10-year lease on the park, and is also In possession of the Steubenville franchise. He paid his players their salaries last season and has all "his men duly reserved, according to the rules of organized baseball. It Is believed that whoever desires to enter the field around Steubenville will therefore be obliged to see Sir Michael before breaking into the game. New Castle Is an applicant for adrr.is sion into the league and J.

E. Leist, of New York, represents the Nocks, but he was not present at the meeting. I. G. Paige, who has applied in the interests of McKcetport, was likewise unable to attend.

Mr. Travis, who acted for thBe two towns, reported that each had its grounds leased and was ready to finance its team. A letter from Hugh Shannon, of Buffalo, was read. He requested a franchise for a club which he proposes to establish in Butler. William Ash- baush.

of Alliance, has stlrrod up tho proposition in that city and believes the fars there will support a league team. William C. Wilson, the local umpire, who attended the meeting, volunteered to visit a number of eligible towns that have applied for berths, and meet with the parties interested. He was appointed a committee to make a tour of these cities. He will go to Connellsville on Tuesday and will run over to Uniontown on Wednesday or Thursday.

Wilson expects to make Butler on Friday and Sharon on Saturday. Salem and Mas-slllon. were also mentioned as possibilities, but no definite arrangements were made toward negotiating with them. "We should not take any definite action." declared Mr. Travis, "until every club desiring to enter the league is represented.

Proxies not desirable wJen an organization Is effected. The men chould attend in person and then they can explain exactly how they are situated and what they wish to do. We are sure of a six-club circuit, but if there are enough applicants to make. It an eight-club league, so much the better. We will meet SgAln In Pittsburgh on January 'S3 and every club desiring to obtain "a franchise will be notified, so all represents tives tan have a voice the organization.

Tom Haymond is quite enthusiastic over the enterprise. He says the Fairmont people are in earnest and will back up their team solidly. They have a lot of cltver players, all ready to fall Into line. Tom advocates home support. "If the citizens are behind a club, he says.

-It means success from the start. All the towns should bear this in mind and a great seaon thus be assured." George L. Mereland. former president of the Ohio and Pennsylvania league, was at yesterday's session. Some cf thos present favored the naming of the new organization the Interstate league, but the majority, seemed to prefer re-tailing the old cognomen.

Protection undertls will probably be asked, with a limit of IS players and' a maxi- mum mlmnr at tl.Jflft BAT fflOSU. SPECIAL TO TII ALLIANCE. Jan. 12. For the first time in history the University of Pittsburgh basket ball team defeated the Mt.

SIX BIG LEA6UE DASEDALL GLUOS TO START RACE WITH HEW PILOTl Hank O'Day and Harry Davis Arc the Only Managers Who Will'Try Out Their Executive Qualities For First Time Others Have Had Experience. By I. E.

SANBORN. CHICAGO. Jan. 12. Nothing featured the season of 1911 in baseball more than the search for managerial timber, particularly in the American league.

Of the eight clubs in that organization one changed managers in mid-season and live have secured new diamond leaders for the 1912 campaign. The National league haa been more conservative, only one club In that circuit switching generals. In all the changes made, however, only three men will be introduced to the job who have not previously managed major league ball teams and one of those three has had considerable minor league experience in the role. The managers who will try out their executive qualities for the first time are Harry Davis and Henry O'Day. the former a veteran lieutenant of one' of tlie best managers in the game today and the latter an umpire and before that a pitcher of renown.

Harry Wolverton. the third of the trio of newcomers in the big league ranks, has seen years of successful leaderfbip in the Pacific Coast and Eastern leagues. When the eeaon of 1311 opened two new names were added to the Ametican'a managerial roster in Hal Chase, who succeeded George Stallings in the task of bossing the New York Yankees, atnd In Bobbv Wallace, who replaced Jack O'Can- nor in charge of the St. Louis Browns. i cnase cia not possess inc required by the task and resigned, after one year's struggle wita it.

making room for Wolverton. Wallace, In pite of having to cope with a hopelc-sa tailender. gave sufficient promise of ability to justify Owner Hedges' giving him another chance. The Cleveland club had three managers during the year. Starting with James McGuire, a holdover from the previous season, in which he succeeded Lajoie, th Naps proved such a disappointment that the veteran backstop resigned.

In casting around for his successor Owner Soro-ers selected Harry Davis, captain of the Philadelphia Athletics, and made a deal whereby Cleveland waa to have the man at the end of the season. George Stovall was appointed to fill the interval as team manager, and made so good on the job that officials of the club found them selves in an embarrassing position wltS Davis in line for 1S12 and Stovall maklt; a noise a successful leader. Three of the five new managers In tlM American league have had more or lei-experience in that line. Clark Grliatt, who replaces James McAIeer at Wasfe1 ington. has been managing big leagsc teams since 1901, when be had charge the White Sox.

He left Chicago to mar age the Yankflees in 1S03 and then jumpf from the frying pan into the fire In 191 when he tackled the Cincinnati job: Jai Stahl. who succeeds Patrick Donovan Boston, tried his hand at managing tl Washington team a few years ago, bf his youth and inexperience militate against his success at the time. Jamc J. Callahan, the new White Sox leade vice Hugh Duffy, was manager of tl ame Sox after Griffith went to Ntf York, and held the position until Field; Jones took it. In addition Callahan ft.

had five years experience as owner art-manager of the Logan Squares, a pert' In which he acquired much informatfc of value in his new position. Tlie three American league manager who ill remain at the f.ame helm taf have been handling are Connie Mack, i the world champions; Hugh of the Detroit Tigers, and Wallace. the St. Louis Browns. Two of then have grown gray in the fervice of tin clubs by which they in be retained prab ably for life.

Greater stability exists in the Nation league at present, but a few seasons af the parent organization was experiment ing with managers. Of the eight leadn in tbe National last season only Fran! Chance. Fred Clarke. John McGraw at Clark Griffith had enjoyed more than 4 year's previous experience. Chance wai a comparatively new product and Grit fith did not last in Cincinnati, ogei Bresnahan.

in St. Louj, Bill Dal Jen. in Brooklyn, were serving their eeo ond year in 111. ard Charles Red' DoeE was the debutant among old league mt agers. This constant' search for managerC timber Is proof of the great scarcity the article, and of the importance of manager of his team, which might nish material for another chapter.
