'HOLTV|LLE MAY
JOIN B. B. LEAGUE

HOLTVILLE, Jan. 29-There is a
chance for the Holtville baseball team
to enter the county league for the last
series of winter games and the belief
was expressed today by Manager Cliff
Woodland that the arrangements
would be concluded.
The inland nine is willing to sell out
upon the payment of S25, and it would
cost 500 additional as entrance fee
into the league The local team has
some cash on hand, but not enough to
meet all the requirements. However,
local fans declare that the money will
be raised.
In event that the Holtville team
enters the league, the first game will
be played Sunday, February 8.
