the Wilmington A. A. foot ball team

will result. -

BASE BALL NEXT SEASON.
Matters are already shaping for

prospects of securing some of the
best men in this section. If a ground
is secured it is an assured fact that
team of the best class will be
placed in West Chester. Whining
ton and Chester teams are just now
agitating d minor league with an
eight-club circuit, which would
probably embrace Wilmington,
Chester, Nol1istown, West Chester,
Royborough, Camden and Wissa-
hickon, Wilmington having two
teams. This circuit would allow
small jumps and the guarantees
could be fixed at Il low rate which
would not inconvenience any Of the

if it can be organized, but the work
of getting into shape should be done
during the winter 50 tho season
could be opened early.
