Indoor Game Of Professional Baseball,

This game it is believed is as nearly reflex of
the American national game it is possible to produce
by mechanical means. It embodies all the salient
features OF the game contested under the rules of
the various leagues and associations throughout the

ball as played by the professional teams will need
no instructions whatever to play this indoor game cor
recy and thoroughly appreciate the nicely in which
many of the most difficult and beautiful positions
brought about on the field are here reproduced in
miniature. For those who do understand the game
OF baseball, this indoor game will give clear idea of
