Joe Raidy's Grand Rapids Team
Scheduled for Two Games-Hope
for Warm Weather.

Announcement was made last night
by the Digger management that the
local exhibition season will open
April IA at whh,h time Marion will
play the Columbus luterurDans,
fast semi-pro organization, making
its Headquarters in Columbus. On
Sunday, April IS, the Regulars and
the Vamgans of the squad will tie
into each either and the fans Of Ma
rion will have a chance 10 see al
most the whole squad in action.
On April 2Oand 21 the Grand Rap
ids team of the Central League is
scheduled for games at Webb park
Joe Raidy, Columbus shortstop last
year. is managing the Grand Rapids
team
The banner attraction Of the eXhi-
bhtion season will be the appear
ance of the Adrian team of the
Southern Michigan league, with Lee
Taylor, former Marion polo star
playing first base. On the 25th and
26th OF April this team will be here.
On the same dates an Adrian team
will play at Mansfield but the first
team, or regulars, will be sent here
while Mansfield will get the Yani-
gans of the squad. lee Taylor will
positively appear at both games and
his host of friends here will turn
out en- masse to see him in baseball
as well as polo and great career
is predicted for him.
III is also quite likely that a series
of two games will be arranged with
the Akron team of the Ohio-Pennsyl-
wanda league.
BY April II when the opening
game will be played the squad

there should be some good baseball
for the anxious fans. AS the season
does not open until April 30, Man

portunity to look over all of the
youngsters and decide upon those he
will keep.
The manager is hopeful OF having
plenty of warm weather next week
when the youngsters, eight in num-
ber, blow in. He expects to put
them TO work at once. There will
be practices daily as long as the rain

SIMPLE WASH
CURES ECZEMA
Why Salves Fail While a Single
Liquid Has Accomplished Thous-
ands Of Cures.

II is now Thoroughly established
among the best medical authorities
that eczema is purely a skin disease
due to a germ, ard durable only
through the skin. II Is not a blood
disease at all; in fact, thousands OF
people suffer with skin disease and
are perfectly healthy otherwise, and
thereby prove they have no diseas-
ed blood.
Smeary salves scannot reach the
germs because they 90 not penetrate
the skin. The only way to reach
the germs is by means of a pene-
tratng liquid
Such a liquid can be obtained
by simply mixing ordinary oil OF
wintergreen with thymol, glycerine
and other healing agents. This COM
pound, known as d. ID. ID. Prescrip-
ton, stops the itch instantly-and
the cures all appear 10 be perman-
ent. In fact, Vt took thousands OF
cures, case after case. before the
best scientific authorities were con-
vinced of the absolute merit OF this
remedy ID. ID. ID. Prescription kills
the germs I'm the itching skin. Its
effect Is seen within one minute at
ter the first application. We espec-
tally recommend d. d. d. Soap In

Some cananea Players.

Elmer Reiger, an old Cananea boy.
has been doing WONDERFUL work in the
pitchers box for the Shreveport Texas
League team this year. He was re-
gently bought by the st. Louis Browns,
and il he has any of his old form he
will be a find for that team. He is
not a sensational pitcher, but one
whose good steady work will bring
him up to be star. Reiger was the
pitcher who pitched the losing to 0
game against RUDE Walters, two years
ago here.
Another old Cananea boy who must
not be forgotten by the fans is Bert
Whaling, who played first base for
that team last year and who is one of
the best first basemen in the Texas
League. He is playing for ShreYe-
port He was also bought for the st.
