Rumor That Chicago White Sox Chief
Seeks to Place Team in New
League.

Ever since the end of the Atlantic.
League season. last September, the
imaginations of baseball writers
around the circuit and the even more
facile speculations of fans in the 1181- I
rious ciries have been working out a
solutidn of the problem of the future
o'.‘ the teams in the league, and nu-
merous rumors have been floating
salami concerning the future of the AL-V
lactic League and also of the Danbury
club.

About the first rumor to start was

-'tn the effect that the Federal league
intended to take over the whole At-
lantic League as a farm for its excess
players, so that instead of being paid
to warm a bench. these playerswoulu
'be used in a minor league and given
an opportunity to do some actual \1 ork
101 their salaries.

These rumors as far as could be
'tilscovered sprung flom some rather
extravagant talk by agents of the.
Ward Bread Company. who when'they
made their rounds to sell. bread threw
in a bit of “inside" information con-
cerning the plans of their employer in‘
the bitseball field, and if they found
themselves in an Atlantic League city,
they generally managed to spread the
fact that the Wards were going to buy
the Atlantic League as an adjunct to
, the Federal League. These rumors
‘l1ave been pretty generally disproved
' especially by the fact that none of the
owners of the various clubs in the At.
lantic League have as yet reported that
- any advances have been made ‘to them_
by the Federal League with the cgcep- !
lion of one occasion, which was at the
beginning of the league sea‘son lustf
aprlllg when at a meeting of the mag-
nates in New York city they were ap-
proached by a bona flde Federal Agent:

Marty has joined the Brooklyn Red-
erals for next season, and in telling
of his entry into professional baseball
relates how his famous. brother ad-

. vised him to go along and make good

on his own ability. Marty got a

chance with Portsmouth. oi the Vir-i
ginia League. but was released before,
getting a fair trial and then went to,

gDanvllle. Marty kept secret the fact
' that he was a brother of the famous

Chicago pitcher and his first efforts

against Portsmouth.

Danville won ‘

both glimes and Walsh struck out 24:

that came back was thiaz.

own reputation for a while longer."

But Marty went along and pitched
