There Is a growing sentiment here for a home-talent baseball team. AL ready some games have been played with local teams. Time was when every small and large town and every rural community had . ball club. Games were played and were enjoyed by players and rooters alike. Then came time when towns got more ambitious and :he rule was to bring n semi-professionals to fill out a crack team and hame-talent was hard iy represented. This discouraged rural baseball and the sport as an amateur proposition. The hired team and most of our baseball was enjoyed from reading the box scores of the big leagues. If baseball is to endure an amateur and great American sport then every little town must quit trying to have a semi-professional, or hired team Towns as large as Texarkana have not found themselves large en- ougb for that Get back on tho basis of more than twenty years ago when Peytonville boasted team that was hard to meet by anything in two or three counties. Since baseball is not practical as a business in towns such as ours. why not try it on as a sport where even the community teams can hope to get in the game?
