1t is reported from baseball head
quarters that the attendance so far
this season, is near the sc, 900 mark.
some few thousands behind the usual
figure at this time OF the season.
However, there are still % games on
the local lot and the fans will have
ample opportunity to boost the at
tendance up to the $4,000 mark.
Rain has spoiled two games in the
last week and that has been rather
disastrous for the local club.
The team is having a fight to climb
out of the cellar position. is playing
good ball all the way through and
deserves the support OF every fan.
There is not a great difference be-
tween the locals standing and the
first division and It is up to the fans
to help boost the team.
