UNIFORM TIME FOR STARTING

Clubs In American AMOciatlon Could Not Agree and Matter Is Left to Individuals. The American association clubs, asked to vote on a uniform time for starting games, could not agree and President Hickey thereupon announced that, it would be left to each dub to start its games at its own hour. Three dubs favor four o’clock. An oddity is that Minneapolis wants to start early, while St Paul, ten miles away, wants to start late, and each may go its own way. It has been suggested that one dty start early enough to have its games over before the other begins, so that the fan* of the Twin cities can see both games each day if they choose.
