The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1919-09-05
NEW SCHEDULE MADE
;. tContinued from page s.

which schedule was suggested by
Kidd.
The Petersburg owner aG%fed TO
all the terms. and told Mr., wilson
that announcement TO that effect
could be made through the press. but
he left without signing the agree
rnent, He sage that while the
schedule decided upon is entirely
satisfactory to him, he will not sign
until he has conference with Man
eyer Mcconnell. OF the Petersburg
club. That is merely custom and
1t is thought that MIR. Kidd Will tack
fis signature TO the agreement today.
This schedule will doubtless meet
with the approval OF both players ana
the baseball public. The hrst
rchedule suggested by the Peters
burg management failed to meet with
popular approval. Naturally the
Richmond fans did not like 1t and
even the Petersburg players declare
that they would not STAND for 1t. They
realize that Richmonds park holds
something like three times as many
~ that In the Cockade City and 1t
will mean more money to all parties
concerned, aside from the fact that
IL wasn't fair TO the Richmond club
Wants Only Her Share.
Richmond doesn't want anything
more than that which is coming to
her, but the team. certainly wants that
much. Mr. Wilson is .N>cne'-. ct sac
finest sports Richmond has ever
known and he will agree to most any
thing that Is within reason. No one
expected him to agree to Mr. hidd's
iDitiAl plan. II would have been
unfair to the Richmond club. AS
hard as the two clubs fight, anyone
knows that giving the Coolers three
or the four games on their home
ground would be big advantage.
Now that the matter has been ar
ranged to the satisfaction of all par
ties concerned. all preparations for
the big series will begin at once. This
II. the first time Richmond has ever
participated in one of the affairs. and
going UP against Petersburg, as she
wfli,s the games are expected TO be
scn1e of the best of the entire season.
when the two clubs meet there is al
ways that rivalry, and the contests
should be some that will long be re-
-uaAmbered by fans of both Rich
nlond and Peters burg.
Mr.. Wilson, who returned home
yE&terday morning after a vacation
At Rockbridge Alum Springs, ex-
preesed himself as being very well
pleased with the arrangements that

says that Mr., Kidd also seemed to
be very well pleased
Macarthur or Napier To-day.
x Richmond fans may he rendered an
opportunity to see Macarthur in action
again this afternoon. This youngest err
8 has been pitching some great ball for
I the Colts and he works like a veteran.
He has hurled only three games for
the Colts since he reported. and has
won two of them He had a miserable
cay when he went up against the
TArs and lost his game by score Of
to Z. Since that time, however, he
has easily defeated Petersburg and
Newport News,

Bender decides. to save Mac for
