LYNDONVILLE
BASEBALL FANS
ARE LOYAL,

We have never before seen
town so intensely loyal in all
its activities as the thriving
town of Lyndonville. And
Lyndonville has a baseball
.eam of which it is justly
proud.
Our morning mail today re-
minded US OF the fact that
Lyndonville had a baseball
game on Tuesday and that
Lyndonville beat the Fair
banks A. A. to the tune of 4
to 3, We did not carry the
story of the game in last
nights paper as we should
have. And in this mornings
mail we were deluged with in
dignant inquiries as to why we
did not have the story of the
game.
All we can offer is an alibi.
Our sporting editor, who COW
ers every game of the Fair
banks A. A. team, is on his
vacation. The circus was in
Lyndonville and, of course,
we had to go to the circus.
Last year our Lyndonville
games were taken care of by a
special Lyndonville CORES
pondent, who gave us excell-
ent service. We had neglected
to make arrangements with
him to cover this seasons
games. And besides that
scarcely anyone in St. Johns
bury knew a game was to be
prayed with Lyndonville. A
little advertisement in this pa
per of the Lyndonville games
would certainly -)ay the Lyn-
don vile management and
would leave no loop-hole for
our not covering the game.
And talk of our not report
ing the game because Fair
banks A. A. was defeated is
mere rot. We are running a
newspaper not a baseball
team. We want the news and
we intend to get it and print
it. Give us your help Lyndon
vile fans and we will see that
every game of your strong
team is reported this season.
For Tuesdays game we owe
you an apology.
