ter team.

making a total OF nine games on Sun""s.
All tVid, there VIII be ~sIAty-tnree SUNDAY
games, confined to the three cities Mc"-
uOurd.
no SUNDAY GAMES HERE.
No games Will be played IN Klchmohu
on Sunday, and the object in playing Sucn
games at al IS 10 satisfy the ueihdluS
Irom the prop4e OF those cities.
Philadelphia, Paterson and Ne"arh are
largely devoted to MANUFACTURING lu.eL1
osts. and the patrons OF the nauoHal
game usually make sunday Afternoon a
general holiday. n that IS the reason
why Sunday games are scheduled loi
those cities. The crowos that d.1snu -
games on that day are en0rInous' anu
much revenue is derived thereirom' were
II not for sunday games II u ndl"is
probable that clubs could exist there.
This Is a new feature in Richmond ndse-
ball circles. and a mistaken impression
is going about 10 the effect that games
will be played here on Sunday. NoihinS
Of the SORT Will be done, however, a. tn-se
games will be confined 70 three out OF
the eight cities in the circuit.
Do NOT LIKE THE IDEA
The Richmond players DO not tfilsn
the idea Of playing ball on suhuay AT
any place. but they must play III oIuir 10
