Ball Fans Are
Awakening.
In District

Although baseball playing cannot
be undertaken for several weeks, en-
thusiastic fans are already beginning
to lay plans for the approaching sea-
son. Most important of these is a
scheme to form four team valley
league, including in its scope Ely.
Ely City. McGill and Kimberly. This
is already being talked up and it is
hoped by ardent fans, will he pushed
to success.
The league would without doubt
be good scheme, as there are many
good players in the district and 9th
ers could be brought in by the know
ledge that work, together with a
chance to get out and play fast ball,
awaited their arrival. Such a league.
would allow a tryout for the regular
team which would be made up Of the
best men on all of them to play any
outsiders who challenged the SUI
premacy of the district
One great difficulty would be ex-
perienced in securing enclosed
grounds suitable for baseball pur-
poses at each of the places. Ely and
Ely City could without doubt use the
Ely City grounds, which were proved
to be excellent last season. These
grounds are already partly enclosed
and doubtless ample funds to finish
the enclosure. so that anyone COM
ing in would be froced to pay. could
be raised by subscription.
At the smelter there are also
grounds which it is believed could
be secured for ball purposes and
fenced in, giving that point an adj
vantage. Whether grounds can be
secured at the mines is a question
which has not yet been investigated
That the district could turn out
teams worth seeing in competition
goes without saying to those who
saw the contests of last season. There
is baseball talent here in plenty,
some of which has already been de-
veloped to the public liking and some
that would now show well on a try
out.
With these plans in ther heads,
baseball fans are eagerly awaiting
the opening of the season. when some
OF them, at least, can be carried into
execution.
