BALL TEAMS PREPARE
FOR OPENING BATTLE
At WARREN SUNDAY

The opening game of the Warren
Baseball league season will be played
at Warren park Sunday afternoon
with the Junction-Briggs and c. & A
teams contesting. The second clash
will be staged Wednesday between
the Copper Queen and c. & A. out
fits.
With Johnson in the game Sunday
at third base for the Junction Briggs
that club should loom up stronger as
Johnny Birkel will return to his old
station at second base while Harry
McArdle will pastime at third base
with Pitman holding down the initial
hassock.
Manager Gill Pitman has not de
cided on his pitcher for the opener
and probably will not reach a deci-
sion until Sunday afternoon when the
hurlers warm up. Harris made an
enviable record here last season with
the Copper Queen club and many for
that reason favor him to start on the
firing line, but Toner has had more
professional experience and there is
little to choose between them.
Tonneman, former Coast Lacquer,
will do the backstop work with Jen-
nings, Bijohn, Stewart and Barnhill
in the outfield.
The c. & A. club has a large num-
Der of players on hand ready to pas
time, but the lineup has not been Sc
lected yet. Manager Ed Cowan is
now in Texas seeking players for sew
eral positions to bolster up the line
up and until word is received from
him as to the date of arrival of play
ers he has signed no batting order
will be announced.
Sol Morganstern, business manager
of the league, has been named as
business manager of the c. & A. ball
club. He has made all arrangements
for a parade to inaugrate the open
ing game of the season Sunday and
is looking after other details pertain
ing to the comfort of the patrons who
attend the games.
League officials are working on
plan to secure better car service than
a year ago.
Red Held, umpire, will be unable to
here this season as he was
called east by business several days
ago Kitty Brashear will do the
honors and will arrive in time for the
third game of the season, Sunday,
April 81.
The various managers are working
on the sale of season tickets and
record crowd is anticipated Sunday
afternoon at the opener.

TENNIS ENTHUSIASTS
To FORM ASSOCIATION
ATTY CA. SATURDAY

Tennis enthusiasts are invited to at
tend a meeting to be held at the Y
w. c. A. Saturday evening at Z O'Clock
when a tennis association will be
formed and officers elected. More
than usual interest is being shown in
tennis this year and with the large
number playing the game it was de,
cided that tournaments could best be
handled by organizing an association.
In the tourney games under the di-
rection of Miss Bernice McCurdy,
girls secretary Of the Y. w. c. A,
Robert Thomas defeated John Mexican
5-3 in one game by agreement. Thomas
will now play Chas. T. Porter in the
semi-finals of the boys singles. c.
Core won from Chas. Edmundson by
default Other tourney games are to
be played this week.

Mirlit1q and Financial NelUS
BY REVIEW LEASED WIRE.

NEW YORK, April 10.-Apart from
the competitive strength of shippings
and coppers, today's stock market de-
veloped no definite trend until the
final hour, when moderate offerings
of rails, at declines of l to 2la points,
provoked a heavy close.
Dealings during the forenoon and
intermediate sessions were almost a
duplicate of the apathetic conditions
which have characterized the past fort
nights operations. Increased interest
was evidenced in the news from
abroad and this was not nature to
inspire bullish enthusiasm. The move
ment in shippings which was mainly
predicated on rumors of another divi-
dend on Marine preferred in the near
future, sent that stock higher by ia
points.
