ROANOKE, VA, April 1T,-With
an ideal day, a crowd of two thou
sand persons and a pretty game, the
Virginia league season opened here
this afternoon, when Roanoke de-
feated Newport News to /.
For the first game, the players
showed unusual good condition EX-
cept for some ragged fielding on the
part of the visitors the game was
interesting and full of snappy plays.
Newport News led off with the first
run in the first inning. Steinhauser
walked and Thompson sacrificed him.
Early sent out a grounder which put
Steinhauser on third. He scored on
an error by Irmscher.
Roanoke tied the score in the third
inning. Maths struck at a wide one
and went to second, while McRed-
moud slept. He took third on Blaus-
sers sacrifice and scored on Irmsch-
ers infield hit, which Motzer threw
home too late.
Roanoke scored two runs in the
sixth. three in the seventh and anoth-
er in the eighth. In the last inning
Newport News had the bases fun. but
clever fielding pulled the, Tigers out
Of the hole.

few moments later, Eberts dropped a

by striking out.
In the third Petersburg made its
nearest approach to a score, Black
stone was safe on Newton's error, and
made second before Raloy could re-
cover the ball Brennegan struck out
but Richmond, contrary To all expec-
tations and precedent, got a hit 70

BY c. NJ. MONTGOMERY.

Richmond ushered in the Virginia
league season yesterday afternoon by
defeating Petersburg to o. Ideal
weather allowed the men to play their
best and the game proved a fitting
inauguration of the season and the
Colts new park. A crowd that taxed
the seating capacity of the stands, as
thus far completed, took advantage of
the ideal conditions and although the
Coolers had many supporters within
the park, proved that the locals are
going to be about the most popular
entertainers which Richmond has had
in this particular line for some years.
As has been the custom in former
years the two teams paraded through
the principal streets before the game.
All along the line of tho parade the
AUTOMOBILE in which the players sat
were greeted with cheers and many
were the wishes extended to the man
ager and his men by admiring fans.
At the head of the parade was a
monster auto truck in which the band
was seated. Following this came the
visiting team, then car of faithful
rooters and finally our own Colts.
But little time was lost when the
parade reached the ball park before
little Ernest Woodall. one of the most
ardent of the younger fans, tossed the
first ball out to Charlie Strain and
the game began.
Manager Steve Griffin early threw
away the curb and the checkrein and
allowed the Colts to frolic at viii over
