Petersburg rams VIII nave 10 turn
out In larger numbers II they expect
TO support the good team that now
represents the city. Less than four
hundred witnessed the first game OF
the series with the Colts on Monday
and the weather was not bad either.
The showers in the morning did not
damage the diamond and there was
no threats OF more rain Yet the
fans did not come out.
A large number of Richmond fans
have signified their intention of going
over TO see Tuesdays game and UNI
less the Petersburg fans come out they
are likely to he oiitnumhered. a num-
Der of Richmonders made Shinss
lively Monday and the locals were
without the supporters in the grand
stand.
There Is no reason why the games
in Petersburg should not attract more
people. The team is going strong now
ana winning the majority Of its games
and no better games are seen around
the circuit than are being played at
the Petersburg park. Ii is true that
the grounds are some distance from
the city but distance Will not retard
real baseball fan when a game In
scheduled.
Richmond from Mondays game will
not be given, 1t can be stated that ii
was hardly enough to pay the hotel
bin of the players and would not
pay this and me transportation,
