LOCALS TRAIN
FOR GAME WITH
WILLIAMSBURG

Both Richmond and Williamsburg
are getting in shape for the game at
Athletic park next Sunday and the
game promises to be the hardest con-
tested struggle fought here in long
time, as there is a great rivalry be-
tween the two teams and both ara out
to do their "darndest."
Neither manager will announce
their batteries until the last moment
and both have even refused to give
their lineups.
So many letters have passed be-
tween Visran and Williams that it Is
doubtful If they will even speak when
they meet on the field.
