up of his team, there was emphasis in
certain places that plainly meant that
the men mentioned were stars that
were still capable of and willing to
shine. Others Of the Transportation
bunch made no secret of the fact that
they expect to win the game.
In addition to the ball game, the two
clubs are ARRANGING a general pro-
