Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1909-06-12
ELKS WILL GO
TO RENO


the Elks will be called in Reno and
excitement is running high among
the lovers of the national sport and
every effort is being made to cheer
in their practice.
Among the sporting fraternity of
Reno considerable money has been
posted and now the bets are listed
with a slight favOritism to the Car
! son City team. Dromiac and Jones
have been watching the tryOuts made
by the Carson Elks with the other
ball players of the city and have no
tilted the Reno members and it is as
if it has had a tendency to scare them
and prove to them that the game
is not all theirs. as they have so
confidently stated.
An attempt is now being made to
bring counter attractions to the
| MOana Springs grounds On that day
in the way of rough riding and other
sports of that nature in the hope
that it will uraw the attention OF
large number of people present
away from the bail game and so many
will then not be present to witness
the downfall of the Reno team.
The captain of the Reno Ramblers
| the fastest lineup of ball players in
the metropolis was in this city yes
terday and it is alleged by some that
he was sent here by the E,ks of Re
no to size up the Carson team and
report to them any weak position
that he might be able to find and
also to catch on, if possible, to the
| signals that are being used by the
local players. He was spotted early
in the day by one of the members
OF the Nevada Press nine, who i'm
mediately notified Captain Catalan.
and wrong signals and fake plays
were made throughout the game and
consequently his trip was for moth.
