CLUB IS ORGANIZED.
Officers Elected and Formation of
Team Will Begin at Once, Under
Littlejohn's Management.

Athena will be in the base ball
arena on the right foot this season,
if Sundays meeting of fans is any
criterion. A loyal lunch met at B.
B. Richards office and the speedy
result was that the Athena Base Ball
club was organized with the election
Of B. B. Richards. president; M. l..
Watts. secretary, Ernest Zerba, trea-
surer. and W. P. Littleiohn, manager.
In effect, the concensus of opinion
as expressed at the meeting was that
Athena this year Is to have a team
that will represent the city with cred
it in the Blue Mountain league and in
view OF the fact that the spirit OF old
"Yellow Kid" DAYS prevailed, Ath
ena promises good showing before
the league fans this year.
The fact that the Athena club is
oficered by the business men is con-
elusive proof that its affairs will be
run on business principles and the
team will have the most substantial
backing the city affords
In the selection of MIR. Littlejohn
for manager, the fans know they have
the best man that could be secured
for the place. Through indefatigable
effort, under most trying and discour-
aging circumstances, he weathered the
storm last year and got all out of a
tail-end team that it was possible to
get. He will have everything to 60
with this year, and here's predicting
that Billy will win more games
than he loses.
At the meeting, new name was
selected for the team. After several
names had been proposed "Little-
johns Millers" was unanimously Sc
lectad. Aud with the selection of
this name. came generous $50 dona-
tion to the club treasury from Man
ager Watts of the Preston Parton
Milling company.
The base ball fever is raging in
other towns which will be represented
in the league. Milton has secured a
new pitcher and an inflelder. Weston
has pitcher from Iowa, and Walla
Walia fans are tumbling over them
selves buying season tickets at 50 per.
