Salt Lake Cricket Club.
Salt Lake had a cricket club which
broke up three or four years ago. It is
estimated that there are now seventy
I'VE or leo lovers of the sport in-tOwn,
so that another society can be organ
lied Many of the best players of the
old team have left town, but a number
of good crickefArs have recently come
TO Salt Lake. The only games played
by the old club were against Ogden.
which was beaten so badly every game
that the Salt LakeTs became disguised
at not having a worthy opponent. An
attempt was made to secure games with
Butte and Colorado Springs. but the
club was not wealthy enough to stand
the expense of a trip. The organizers
OF the club are now assured of finan-
cial support OF local merchants. so that
two teams can be organized and main
tanned. The Liberty park oval will
probably be used for practice and the
game with Ogden will be played on
July "a at Lagoon.
Good Players Here
There are now in SaItsJ Lake several
crack players Harry Hayward and
Alfred Coils each represented their
counties in the English cricket
matches. The four HOare brothers.
recently arrived from Australia, are all
players of some note William Hoare
represented Australia against tie
Gentiemen's club of England. At bat
he made l95 runs and bewled an aver
age of six wickets for twelve runs, IN
the contest against the New South
Wales team eight years ago. There
are number of good players in Provo
who will send a representative to the
