1t has been said that Columbus
never gives her support unreserved-
ly to anything. We are going to give
this statement the gentle haha in the
opening game here. 1t will be a day
when everything will close and the
population of this city to a man will
be at Lake Park. 1t is proposed to
do the thing right. Taylor's band
will lead the procession which will
include both clubs, the president of
the league, the visiting managers and
others. Then at Lake Park there
will be some ceremony and Mayor
Donnell will be invited to pitch the
first ball. 1t is hoped with the
crowds from surrounding points to
have five thousand people present all
roofing for Columbus, and if the Wis
! itors take the first game they will be
! welcomed to it.
One of the local fans tried his hand
at winning the hundred dollars which
President Compton offered for the
best schedule submitted The max
ing of a schedule so that six clubs
will make all towns and lose no dates
with a view of saving every dollar
Of railroad fare possible, is no easy
job, and certainly one that requires
an old head to work out. Our local
follower of the game worked indus
triously at his task and managed to
get the six clubs located as far as
June 1st, but here he had them all
punched at Gulfport and no way to
get back home. 1t is safe to say that
Columbus will not get the hundred
dollars offered for this job.
A number of schedules have been
submitted to President Compton and |
they have been submitted to the
clubs. The arrangement is for all |
of the towns to have an opening, and |
Columbus will probably open at Me-
ridian or Mobile, and after three or /
six games away from home the boys
will be back on their own Stag pile
will have the benefit of an opening /
game. From the schedules submitted
1t is probable that Columbus fans /
will first see the national game play
ed under league auspices on the 18th, /
10th and 18th of April.
Some of the local rooters want
Columbus to open with Mobile, the
penant winners last year. Their idea
in this is to find out just exactly
what we are up against, and in get
ting before the leaders we will GER
tainly know what's ahead of us,
whether the Grays can sold their own
or not. Then there is another bunch
which want Columbus to go slow,
to take no chances, and to take on
some other club where we will have
a chance to break even and stay at
the top of the ladder We must GER
tainly stay in the first division to be-
gin with, and as the season advances
we must climb toward the top.
