Hot Weather Blamed.

The attendance is expected 10 pick
up if the weather moderates a bit
There is no doubt but what the
present hot spell has kept many
people from the local ball park. The
local club is playing good baseball
and promises to make a bid for
higher honors. Smiths hurlers are
working good and the team is hit
ting fair although not what the men
are capable Of
The only thing that kept the
league intact was the fact that all
clubs have a guarantee Of $4,000
posted and must finish the season
before they can draw on this fund.
Also had they dropped out of the
league the owners would have lost
tEeir players and their franchises
AS there are a number of players
due for a trial in the big show this
Sc ason. the managers decided to
hang on in hopes of cashing in on
