been taken and one woman was SUR
prisod TO find her milk in clean pan

Thomas NJ. Brown and Peter f.

Tri-state Baseball Club. and dircc-
tors Of the Delaware State Fair Asso-
citation, conferred here today, relative
TO playing Tri-state ball at the Fair
Association grounds this year. No
definite action regarding the matter
was taken. however. Another meet
ing, for further discussion of the sub
iect, will be held some day next week.
When questioned regarding tho
matter at noon today, Mr. Brown said
that there had been a conference on
the subject, but that neither he nor
Mr.. Cassidy or the State Fair direc-
tors are agitating the matter. Mr.
Brown declared that the suggestion
,hat ball games be played at Wawasei
Park had been made by an outside
person, who was not connected with
either the owners or the fair direc-
tors, and the conference this morning
was held for the purpose Of discuss
ing in general manner the advisa-

/ but that it wouid be further discussed
at q meeting next week. II was pointed
out by the "outsider" who advocated
the PLAYING field that the change would
be beneficial to both the club owners and
the park association. inasmuch a. he
believes that many more people would
attend the bail games if they are played
Iat Wawaset Park than attend them at
the present location, Front and Union
streets. The space within the rac'
track. he pointed out, would be utilized
Ias the ball grounds. and there is plenty
OF space for a large field. and the fn'
lnew concrete erandstand at that place
