Manager Moore will be in charge of the
team again this year, and he is now on
the war path" trying to scare up new
material with which to strengthen the
weak places In his lineup. So far the
only new man he has landed is Phil

good one, however and will be a tower
Of strength in the box Manager Moore
also has his eye on Jim Donnelly, the
crack second baseman of the Gurley out
At Of the Independence League. and II
he lands him will put him on second
and switch his infield around. Donnelly
was leading the league at fielding his
position and also one Of its best batters,

Falconer Conner.
Falconer at first is conner. and as he
is youngster and has not had much ex-
perience he should improve over last

ton until the outdoor season begins.
The club will put a foot ball team on
the field this coming season. and expects
to have good one. as several of its
men have played on good teams of other
organizations. Among the candidates for
the team will be found the names of
Stewart Robertson, Falconer, Orme,
Moore, Jones, Smithson. Carruthers, King,
Grant, Baldwin, keene, Bergman and

The Brightwoods do not expect to have
teams representing them in any other
fields of sport this year. their idea being
to get good results out of the teams that
they are at present supporting, rather
than have a lot of mediocre ones which
are unable to hold their own.
During the Easter holidays the club
will give an entertainment. consisting OF
vaudeville and minstrelsy, the proceeds
of which will be used toward defraying
the expenses Of the athletic teams.
