Secretary j. F. Munger of the Rock

Iafternoon closed a contract with Char

the Rock Island team for the coming
season. The suits to be worn on the
read will not be changed, but those
worn at home will be different from
any the Islanders have mad.
For road use, the old uniforms were
found to be in fairly good condition,
and it was only necessary to purchase
few new ones to fill out the quota
rendered deficient by players failing
{ to turn their suits over, or otherwise.
The color scheme, accordingly, will be
the same as last year on the road
gray and black. However, an entire
new outfit of caps, stockings and belts
has been ordered.
For home use II complete uniforms

same for the home grounds as for
several seasons past, but the design
as it applies to the shirts is en-
tirely new. The shirts are to be
collarless, and, like those used on the
road, will have the words Rock Island
written entirely across the breast in
the place of the monogram used here
tofore. TO complete the outfit, II first
