sUsQUEHANNA BASE BALL
LEAGUE.
Rising Sun Member OF New Organi-
zation-Schedule For Season
Of 1920

OF 1920.
The Rising Sun base ball team of
1919 not only finished the season
pennant winner in the Cecil County
Church League, but after all bills
were paid had balance of $50 left
in the treasury. 1t looked as il
these funds should be divided among
the players who sacrificed their time
and cars without pay, but the boys
preferred to have the money remain
in the treasury.
The Club has now entered the
Susquehanna League for the coming
season. This league is composed of
Aberdeen, Bel Air, Havre de Grace,
Perryville, Oxford and Rising Sun.
1t is a regularly organized league,
not only for the season of 1920, but
for seasons to follow.
Arthur E. Jewell, of Havre de
Grace, is President and Secretary OF
the league, and M. e. Founders, of
Rising Sun, Treasurer. Contracts,
rules and schedules have been sent
out, and the club managers are
rapidly signing their players.
The Rising Sun Club has already
about 20 ball players under contract,
and some of these men are real ball
players. It is quite evident that the
Club here can get the material, as
this has been proven in the past.
But the question now is, will the
business men of our town support
the team.
The $50 cash guarantee for en-
trance to the league has been paid
from last years balance, or in other
words by the players themselves, and
thus far twenty young men of the
town have pledged themselves to
finance the team to the extent OF one
dollar a game during the playing
season. A committee has been ap-
pointed to visit the business firms
for donation, as the team will be at
considerable expense at the outset.
The rules of the league will be
found in next weeks edition.
