Sporting Views

IFS now practically elnehed that
the club next season will play at the
old park instead OF at the new grounds
out beyond the Mckinley avenue car
lire. However, there will be some
improvements made at the old
grounds. In order to play there, 1t
will be necessary to move the old
Joy grand stand, which has been
used as a club house, from its present
position. 4 It will probably be placed
where it can be used. Most of the
old board fence probably will be torn
down and the steel sheeting fence
erected all around. The club owns a
big quantity of this sheeting that has
never been placed in use. The main
reasons for not moving to the new
park next year is the big cost in
volved in rendering this place suit
able for use and in erecting the stands.
The new grounds, however, may be
put in use the year following.
