Just where the game will b. played is undecided at present, but it will probably be played at Riverside park The Cadet management is or the opinion that Proprietor Hayes de- maiids too much money for the rental of the Driving park. He demands .5 per cent of the gate receipts. The management thinks this is rather on eyorbitant demand. After paying a large guarantee to the 1annigans and giving 9 per cent of the gate receipts to the owner of the grounds there will not be gold mine left for the man. ager or the Cadets. Unless the rent of the grounds. is somewhat lowered ii is the intention of the management to rope off the field at Riverside park and play the game there.
