Construction OF baseball park and

playing OF games by Negro teams.
I called forth lively protests, in City
Council last night, from residents OF
the ward.
n Nearly leo men and>women from

principal spokesman. comprised the
kprotesting delegation. In opening the
khearing. Mr.. Jones charged that one
Of the members OF Council itself was
financially interested in the proposed
bail park and had plans for II on
Zhis desk. He further charged these
y plans called for the closing OF four
streets, Seventeenth, Eighteenth.
Spruce and Church, which would
cause depreciation in property
values.
If one OF the members Of Council
has such plans. 1t is up TO him, we
think. to let it be known" said
u Jones.
y Councilman John o. Hopkins. a
colored member admitted he was
the member referred to. and admit
] ted he had such a plan for future
consideration OF Council. Land for
the ball park had been acquired by
;. the Douglas Amusement Company,
a colored organization. he added
Councilmen Charles Forwood and
Alexander Abrahams told the del
ogation that when a concrete plan
for such a ball park was presented
= 10 Council. il would then be time for
Council to give the matter due con-
sideration by referring It to the
building committen.
Mr.. Hopkins suggested that mas
much as the Douglas Amusement
n Company had invested money in the
"a ground. IL the citizens in that vicin-
ity opposed the erection Of a ball
y park there. they should take the
y ground Off the hands OF those who
had invested their money in It.

that much had been accomplished
