number Of fans when they called OF
their opening game which was to
have been played against the col
lege town lads at Eighteenth and
Van Buren yesterday afternoon.
According to one Of the Newark
ers. the Wilmington management
phoned them about o'clock in the
afternoon and said that it would be
impossible to play, that the field
was too muddy. etc. Those who
we're out at Eighteenth and Van
Buren yesterday didn't think that
this was the reason when the High
lets failed TO appear. The grounds
were in good enough shape for any
hall club. The National Guard as
pirants worked out on the field all
afternoon. Several games were
played on the other diamonds "over

isn't positive whether his religious
abstinence from intokicants and

claims he used to know a French

seem to remember the brand the
Frenchman used. Mr. Walker is
quite active, in fact he always has

of age he trudged three miles with

so years old he created considerable
excitement at the White River

best time he's had for Is years.
