FANS DISAPPOINTED
YESTERDAY; NO
GAME

Wet grounds yesterday caused
the baseball game to be postponed
and 200 of the regular fans who
went out expecting a game were
badly disappointed. They will be
back again today, however, and
the grounds will be fine If no
more rain comes.
1t is possible Ed Kipert may
not be in the game today. He
