between the Shipbuildcrs and the Nor

Shipbuilders and "Southpaw" Beckes
will do the slab work at the Wednes-
day performance. Beckes always

more than once this season.. so, with
proper support he should hold them in

The outfield which the locals will
pit against the leaguers will be hard

as usual; DeFarge will take care of tho
center and TONY" Monroe will be
stationed In the right garden. and. as
