There is talk going the rounds
oi 'sexni-protee‘s‘ionel b’see‘bell circles
about a eix«t‘eem league to be or-
Mixed tor the coming season.
Mlu some of the teams discussed It
plan. but the prolect did not go
through. -lt is thouehtehst the men-
es'ers will eeriousiy think about this
idea before the season opens. There
have been many plans altered. but
only one has been really practical.
This plan would include his or the
bent baseball allies in Feirfieid Coun.
't! and New York state. The team!
‘susgested ere Norwelk. Wilton.
Stamford end Denbury in Connecti-
“‘oilt lrith Brewster and Poughlleepsie

could suppol-t a league team and

in the morning. one reason Iorin-
oluding Ppughlteepsle would be to
pley ' Saturday afternoon games
there. llsseboll is very popular in 7
IN’ithst New York city. sepsoielly on
Saturday afternoons. By having s
team like the: on the schedule such
nines as Wilton or Norwnlk could
play thereon a Saturday and yet
keep Hundoy baseball back here tor
their fans who would not make the
trip with the players.
1! six teams within 35 miles oi
each other could be selected it is
quite likely that a issue will be
given careful consideration.
One~ct the other plans is to in-
clude ‘Fsirtield'instesd oi Pough-
keepsie in the, league. Fairilold has
always been at good bnsctell town
and with a. league to stimulate in-
terest it is believed that the tune
would support their tours as well as
those in any of the other cities.
The baseball season is nearly three
months of! and plenty of things can
inrpen by that time. The baseball
nmnnsies of this vicinity will have
re. nothing to think about and they
will be, able to iron from the ions on
this idea. It has been to long time
since league baseball cut any fig-
ure in the places mentioned in this
