HoosIcK FALLS BALL TEAM
Big Game Expected When Monument

Now just listen to me. That Hoo
sick Falls team will bother the Berk-
shire county teams in good shape
when next they meet, and don't you
forget it, says the Frenzied Fan" in
the North Adams Transcript. While
Brother Kirk was in North Adams
yesterday he gave an outline Of the
team and 1t is sure good. To show
the appreciation in that town the mer-
chants have agreed to close their
places of business on Thursday after
noon to allow everybody chance to
go to the ball games and so the first
of the mid-week games was played
yesterday This would not be bad
move in some other places that /
know OF.
A week from Sunday Hoosick Falls
and Bennington meet in Hoosick
Falls for the first big game between
these teams In that town. The first
game between them will be played In
Bennington on the Saturday, before.
1t is very probable that a big crowd
will go from here to the Falls on Sun
day as the games between these
teams have been the event of the year
for some seasons past. Both teams
always strengthen for these games
and there will be some great base
hall
