4 QUESTION
that IS NOT ABOUT The DISPERSARY!
Will the People Of. AbbevilIe Support a
First-class Ball Team?-The Team
improvements on Ball Park.

Will the people of Abbeville support
a first-class baseball team? This is
the question, now, before which all
others fade into insignificance.
Mr.. Roy Jones is now in town, as
manager and fOrerunner of this team.
He needs no introduction to the fans
of Abbeville. He has pitched win
ming ball for us many times. But
| since he has been here, he has been the
star pitcher of the "Mechanics," the
best independent team in South Caro-
lima; and with the University of
South Carolina nine, which was un-
doubtedly the best college team that
South Carolina ever turned out.
"Bill' Perrin, who has led the Caro-
lima team in batting for the past two
years, and Carol, another Carolina
man, will play in the infield.
The fast McCarter Bros, who have
been playing on the Presbyterian Col
lege team, will play in the outfield.
Archie Watson, Of Erskine College,
is a star, either behind the bat or in
the infield, so it has not yet been de-
cided where he will play. Rosenberg,
of Greenwood, and Alex Bowie, a To-
cal boy, complete the infield.
w. T. Jones will probably be an ad-
dition to the pitching staff. and nego-
tiations are on to get a fine catcher
from Timmonsville.
William more Familiarity known as
"Bill") Graydon, Andrew White,
Eugene Power and Goode Thomson
are the leading candidates for the out
field.
You can see by this that MI. Jones
has brought together the hottest ag-
gregation of ball tossers that has been
in Abbeville in many years. But to
keep it up he needs the sympathy and
support Of the people.
A subscription list to defray the eX-
pepses of starting the club off, is
being taken around. Those who have
seen it have responded nobly.
The Abbeville Athletic Association
is going to make great improvements
on the ball park at a very early date.
A grandstand is to be erected. the
diamond scraped and the grass in the
outfield cut down; and later, a high.
board-fence with no knot-holds in it is
to he erected.
The eason will open with three
games: on Monday, Tuesday. and
Wednesday of pext week, most prob
ably with Elberton.
. And one thing more Ladies and
Gentlemen: When we go to the ball
games, let's do some ''rooting!'
If you never played baseball you
cannot imagine how much it helps.
So, if we have big crowds out next
week aud everybody pulls for the
home team, the big end of that series
ought to ONE our way. Don't you
think SO? Let's try it, and see.
