The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1900-04-01

It will be not only a beautiful en-
blem, but it will be an insignia of su-
periOrity that will serve to stimulate
interest in the game, and will mean
better baseball for the patrons. AS ii
is a valuable trophy that viii be a per-
manent honor TO the winning team, an
increase of interest is the natural Sc
Quence. 1t means high-grade amateur
sport, and that is what The Herald is
anxious TO promote.
Play Good Ball.
From the kind of ball played by the
school mines the past two years, ii is
very evident to fandOm that they are
no mean part of the ball tossing fra
ternity, and are entitled to more than
a little consideration. They have
played games that were just as inter
ssting and almost as pretty as many
OF the exhibitions given by the semi
professional mines. The bleacherites
have murhured and have said: why
Is this thus?' 1t has been mighty
pretty baseball. and The Herald COM
pany has offered this trophy for its
encouragement.
The nest part Of the whole school Sc
res IS that it looks as if the ball this
year is 90 be better than ever. All Of
the mines have better organizations
than previously. and they have prac-
t'.l assidUously since the snow ceased
L. fly. The practice games that they
have played have brought out the best
work of the season so far. None Of
the teams have yet been defeated, even
IN practice games, but they have
bOWled ever several of the other am
&tCur organizations Of the city.
The three schools that will constitute
loco
H5rald's trophy are the High school,
the salt Lake Bushes college and the
Latter-day Saints College. The first
