After two games IN petersburg, one
Monday evening. and the second Tues
day morning, the Richmond team re-
turns home and to clash with the
Cockade City boys in Broad Street
Park. the evening of Memorial Day.
This Petersburg outfit has been seen
here and Ii is some team. They have
one pitcher who made the Colts look
anything but an aggregation of fence

Celebrations on occasions like Mem
orial day are quite unsuitable for the
other fellows. They may be all right
for the Richmond players and fans but
never for Petersburg.
According to the official standing.
Petersburg is right behind Richmond
in the league race and coming strong.
The Cockade City team gave Norfolk
ali it could handle and Norfolk Is re-
garded as the one team necessary for
Richmond to beat fer the pennant.
This view may be changed later on,
