Philadelphia, St. Paul Join Columbia League

NEW YORK, NY. January 15, 1915 - "Today we're here to announce two new teams that will be joining the Columbia League for the 1915 season. We are happy to announce that the Philadelphia Centennials and the St. Paul Saints will be joining us for the upcoming pennant chase."

"The Centennials of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania are owned by Harman Day, a renowned restaurantier. The St. Paul Saints are owned by Goose McCormick, a filmmaker. We are happy to have the two teams aboard."

The four expansion teams will choose their players through an expansion draft. Each team of the twelve existing teams will be able to protect twenty players. Any players left unprotected are eligible to be taken in the expansion draft. The draft will last thirty-five rounds.
