There is much speculation among
the fraternity as to the personal of neXt
! years team to represent Marietta in

The other cities in the League are al
. ready looking for players and it is safe
to say that Marietta is not behind them
The management of the local nine will
be in competent hands and Marietta
may be expected to initiate the recorC
of 1896, when she stood second to none
1t is reasonably certain that four OF
FIVE of the old players will be retained
on the new club, including Captain
Tom Williams, whose splendid work al
the bat changed the result of more thar
one game, Weak places will bt
