Topeka Enters the Minor Leagues, 1886–1887: Bud Fowler and Goldsby’s Golden Giants Mark E. Eberle Beginning in 1865 with the Frontier Base Ball Club (BBC) in Leavenworth, teams were organized in most Kansas towns at some point during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Clubs composed of businessowners and others who could enjoy leisure activities on workday afternoons soon gave way to town teams, and in some instances, amateur teams gave way to semipro teams.1 Twenty years after the Frontiers participated in the first intercity matches with clubs in Kansas City, the first professional minor league teams represented cities in Kansas when Leavenworth and Topeka became members of the Western League in 1886 (Table 1).

REGISTER REPUBLIC 2/23/44 REASON TRIUMPHS The Colorado legislature was called into special session early this month to enact a law to prohibit persons of Japanese ancestry, including loyal Japanese- Americans who are citizens of the United States, from owning land in that state. The legislature adjourned a week after the session began without passing the proposed law. In fact, members were overwhelmingly against it. Refusal to follow the path of blind discrimination speaks well of the Colorado legislature's understanding of what this country stands for.
