CHURCH LEAGUE SEEKS
BASEBALL GROUNDS
VIII Try to Obtain Gallaudet Col
lege Field.

The board Of directors of the recently
organized church athletic association
met last night at 1866 Bacon Street, and
discussed the matter of obtaining base
ball grounds for the coming season. No
definite decision in regard to the ac-
QUESTION of grounds for the teams in
the Church League field was reached.
but it is probable that the board of
directors will endeavor to obtain Gal
laudet College field when that Insti-
tuition closes for the summer holidays.
Some other field will be leased for the
use Of the Church League until that
time.
Though the schedule of games is not
yet completed, the board decided that
the first game of the regular series will
be played May between Gunton Temple
and Temple Baptist Churches There
after games will be played every day
during the summer. to which the public
will have free admission The total ex-
penses of the league will be met by the
Church Athletic Association which com
prises six churches: Gunton Temple.
Temple Baptist. Calvary Baptist, Fourth
Presbyterian. Sixth Presbyterian, and
Wesley Methodist. These churches have
manifested great interest in the move
ment. which they hope will provide good.
clean sport for young men.
The teams of the six churches have
already organized, and are getting in
some fast Practice in preparation for
the championship series.
The members Of the teams must be
members OF or actively connected with
the church they represent on the ath-
Ietic field.
