BASEBALL

The game between Fredericksburg Col .
h.ge and the Technical High school Of
Washington Saturday on the grounds
here promises 20 he a close and exciting
match. The Techs have two or three OF
Wa.hington's crack pitchers on their
team. while the local battery will be
held down by Jones and Scott. This Is
the first game OF the season and every
one wishes the home team good luck. In
order that the business men may have
a chance to SIC most OF the game the
management have decided to call the
game at "a quarter past four Owing to
the crowding around the base lines,
which so DISTRACTED the view from those
on the grandstand last year and which
is not fair to those on the grdndstand
and also detrimental 10 the players hay
ing a free field. there will be q line at a
mir distanc from the base lines, which
will be- the limit. An officer will be pres
ent and see that no one crosses this line.
