Baseball League

Proposal to Form Third Division Lost To-day

A meeting of the Baseball League was held at the Midland Hotel, Manchester this afternoon, Mr. Wilkinson in the chair. On the question of forming a Third Division of the League an objection was raised to the Central League having the right to elect all fourteen of its clubs to form the main part of this division, at the expense of other equally competent leagues in the kingdom.

An amendment that the question be adjourned for twelve months and that application be made from clubs all over the country to form this division was defeated.

The proposal to form a Third Division of the League was voted on, and failing to get a two-thirds majority was lost.
