LOCALS READY
TO PLAY BALL"
FIRST GAME OF THE SEASON
TO BE CALLED AT 3 O'CLOCK
TODAY.
TO MEET VANDERBILT SCRUBS
c. NJ. A. Has a Strong Lineup And
Confidently Expects to Take
The Game.

Unless ]. Pluvius should interfere
this afternoon will witness the
opening of the base ball season here.
The Columbia Military Academy viii
cross bats with the Vanderbilt Scrubs
at the Academy field today and
Saturday, the games being called
promptly at O'Clock. The lineup OF
the local team is the strongest that it
has ever had, and while the Wander
bilt second club is also very capable
aggregation, the home boys confidently
expect to take both of the games.
They have been diligently at work
preparing for the opening season for
several weeks and believe that every
man on the team will be in perfect
condition for the opening fray.
The home team has a most capable
star of box artists. With Neal, Bob
Taylor and Dedman they have an ag-
gregation that can be depended upon
at all times. Neal is acknowledged
to be one of the best amatuer pitch
ers in this section and Taylor and
Dedman give promise of being ex-
ceptionally swift and capable Of play
ing with fast company. Moore and
Taylor, C. will be behind the bat.
Both are active, strong-armed players
and can be depended upon to hold the
ball at the critical stage.
On the initial sack J. Brock will be
found doing business, while Elosua
will hold down the second bag and
Foote will take in everything that
comes anywhere in third base terri
tory. Black will handle the hottest
of the hot ones that pass across the
territory between second and third.
He bids fair to make one of the best
short stops the team here ever had.
The outfield is well taken care of in
the lineup. With Burns in left, Lee
in center and Dyer in right, two or
three baggers are going to be mighty
scarce in tomorrow's game. The team
plays we'll together, while the men are
all doing good individual work.
1t is not yet known who the Wander
bilt Scrubs will have in the box or
behind the bat, but strong battery
is expected. Some of the varsity
team will be in the game tomorrow.
The umpire has not yet been selected.
