The Cheshire Republican of Keene
closed its account of the recent reor-
the following wall:
Though the baseball season is but
few months away, there is still much
to be done, and greater activity should
be shown in Keene, looking toward the
perfection of a pennant- winning team.
Messrs. Whitney and Daley, who rep
resented Brattleboro, are wide-awake
baseball enthusiasts, and are at the
front of the line all the time, However,
the representatives of the other teams
should not sit back in the rear seats and
let Brattleboro dominate the entire
stage. There is ample room in the spot
light for the Keene directors. 1t only
needs little attentive listening for the
prompter's call to get the cue and make
a bow to a baseball audience.
The Keene fans want the Keene di-
rectors at the front, not sitting in the
shade grabbing forty winks.' Bellows
Falls and Brat;leboro are in the game
for keeps and mean to make a go of it,
1t would be acceptable II the directors
OF the NEEDLES would put on their fighting
clothes and oppose the Brattleboro di-
rectors in their fight for predominance. "
