need go hungry this season for baseball.
There viii be continuous baseball either
at Lucas nald or at Murray from April
eS TO September iS. with the exception
OF ono week That week. according 10
the schedule adopted at Ogden Saturday,
comes In August. Otherwise there will be
no break in the play except for breathing
spells on Mondays.
The Salt Lake club VIII play twelve
woeks on Its home grounds. or seventy
Two games. Murray will meet two clubs
other than Salt Lake oai Lucas field. max
ing a total for that lot of eighty four
games Five weeks have been assigned TO
Murray's own grounds-thrty games.
Therefore. there will be ll6 league
games at Lucas field and at Murray, the
former five minutes from the heart OF
the business district and the latter twen-
ty-two minutes distant
Pretty soft when a baseball ian can

Talk about town yesterday was TO the

number of games assigned to Salt Lakes

IN split schedule. How'd you like 10 go
TO a track-supppsin' you were looking
Tor that kind OF a game-expectng to
see mile race. Two horses are TO start,
SAYS YOU both cracks. Then up steps
somebody and says It's going to be mile
race all right. but It's going TO be run
IN half-mile heats. and that there's 10 be

those horses really won that mile race.
Probably ;herc'd be half dozen horses
in the stables that could skin either OF
not trade n shoe of one of the milers for
the whole lot OF them, That's the way
