.AYCROSS
MAY COME
EFFORTS BEING MADE TO Sc.
CURE BALL TEAM FOR GAMES
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

The fast Waycross ball team will
probably arrive in the city tomorrow
for two games with the Pilots, Friday
and Saturday.
Manager Hopkins, of the Pilots, yes
terday talked with the manager of the
Wayeross team over the telephone and
asked for games in this city on the
above dates. The manager could not
state definitely whether or not the
club could come. but will advise the 10
cal manager today.
If this team does come to the city
two interesting games can be looked
forward to, as Waycross has an un-
usually strong team, composed most ly
of semi-professional players. The
club has already defeated the fast vi
emma aggregation which put the Pilots
to the bad here few weeks ago,
and have gust finished trimming the
soldier team from Fort Screven. Wal
ker pitched the game for Waycross
Waycross has always been anxious
to secure club to defeat Brunswick
but during the past few years has been
unable to do it. in fact the locals have
capaured every game played with the
Magic City for the past FIVE or six
years. Now a number Of enthusiastic
fans of that city have interested them
selves in the matter and have secured
number Of first class players from
different sections of the state and they
have succeeded il getting together a
fast aggregation
1t is hoped that the games will be
arranged and the fans will look Tor
ward to them with more than usual
interest.
