Clifton Baseball Association.

Baseball activities have been re-
sumed in Clifton, with every indica-
ton pointing toward a most success
full season. The meeting called for
last Saturday evening in the library
was well attended, and resulted in
the organization of an association to
manage the local team.
After d short discussion of the out
look and prospects for the coming
season, the following officers were
elected for the association: E. M.
Williams, president; Norman Car
michael and J. w. Bonnie, vice
presidents; Lamar Cobb, secretary;
J. J. Kelly, Treasurer. The cleo
tions in each case were unanimous
and Mr.. Williams Immediately set
tied down to business.
Some further discussion followed as
to what would be the best policies to
be pursued and it was 1ually decide d
that Mr.. Williams should appoint a n
executive board to raise funds and
make all preliminary arrangements
for the season. An entertainment
committee was also decided upon.
The matter of improvements to
the local playing field was discussed,
and the field will be put in good con-
dition as soon as possible. The i'm
provements will be limited, however,
to the field alone, rolling, grading and
filling the diamond and out-feld, as
the A. c. company intends to food
that part of the fiat at the close of
the season.
Mr.. Williams on Monday announced
his selection of the following men
who will act with the officers of the
association as the executive board:
w. j. Riley, Harry Wright, c. A.
meeting was called for Tuesday
afternoon, when in connection with
other business "a manager will be
selected for the team. The selection
of captain will doubtless be left I'M
til the boys take the field.
The entertainment committee APP
pointed consists of Dick Franz, Pete
Riley and DIR. Burtch.
The team will settle down to work
immediately. Already a number of
the boys have been working the
kinks out of their joints.
The association is now waiting to
hear the report of the schedule com
| mittee which met in Ell Paso Sunday.
For some time the cities of the
southwest have been trying to get
together on one scheme or another
but seem to have forgotten that Cliff
ton aud Morenci are live issues in the
baseball annals of the Cactus couu-
try. Clifton was not invited to send
Il representative to this meeting, but
replying to their inquiry "Will you
have a team?" Pete Riley wired
back to the effect that "We'd be
there with bells on" The schedule
when completed will be sent around
for approval, so nothing will be done
towards arranging games until the
results of the Ell Paso meeting have
been announced.

earnings from which should provide
funds for additional capacity that
may be decided upon later. The
success of this proposition depends
upon the manner in which present
stockholders respond to taking ad-
dltional stock. 1t is understood that
arrangements have already been
made for one-half of the required
amount and if the balance can be
raised it will not be long until the
company will be in shape to take

The box is of good size and is laid
