conditions are such az 10 forecast a
successful season. Financia! matters
are said TO be bothering but one city
on the circuit Muscatine having had
some trouble in raising funds necessary
for support of the team. That city has
been under heavy expense both last
season and in preparation for the COM

called on to make active campaigns for
funds.
T Financially. the Cedar Rapids man

of any on the circuit. That city realized
profit of $1,000 last season. and will
start the new year with a certainty of
going thruout the season without any
financial loss.
