Inc seemed game will be PLAYED at

As Tar as is known both teams

It is generally conceded that seaford.
judging from ueir record this sea

can't see ii that way. Both teams
have a large following who will be

crowds that ever witnessed a baseball

Seaford Is proud OF is team this
year, principally because the team IS

They believe they have the strongest
local club In the STATE, and II any
home team doubts it, Manager Hobbs
is willing to arrange a series with
them. BY playing all home players
Seaford has found out that the en-

tendance much larger than when Il
was when the town was hiring play
ers right and left and going in the
hole financially each year.
