By this method each team is sure of playing at least three games, which is the reason that it was chosen, rather than the usual tournament plan, where by one defeat puts a man out of the race. If this scheme is adopted, four diamonds will be laid out on Soldiers Field, so that four games can be played in an afternoon. Each nine will play every other day, and with good weather the preliminaries should be finished by the week...
