"In spite of the wind, the snow
the rain and the hail we are max
ing some little progress at the new
bali park" said James Williams
chief engineer Of the C. d. & M.
today. "If the weather man will
only give us few nice warm days
| with an abundance of sunshine we
will make things fly. The grounds
should have been ploughed up
last fall and now we would have
a good hard foundation upon which
to lay ont a diamond. As it is
the Marion park will be as good
a one as can be found in the cir
cuit. When we get through the
diamond will be fairly fast and

toutfield will be as level and free
from chuch holes as care can pos
silly make It,. The grandstand
will compare most favorably with
some of the best in the o. and
p. league"
