M|LL|0NAIRES OPEN TODAY
With WESTBROOK SEMI-PR0S--
H0USER BUNCH FASTEST YET

The day Augusta fans have been
waiting for has arrived. Today at
Capitol park at P. NJ. the Million
aires will clash with the strong
Westbrook team. Those who have
any doubts as to the strength of the
Millionaires should have been at the
park yesterday afternoon and wit
messed the initial workout of Hou-
sers selections for this years outfit.
Practice was held for three hours
and both the outfield and infield
showed up in classy style.
Batting was held first and the way
the boys whaled out the pill bodies i'll
for visiting hurlers in the games to
come. Later the infeld held a
snappy session and this was followed
by sky scrapers and line drives to
the outer defense. And believe me
it is some defense to say nothing of
what it will do on the offensive. The
trio-Graves in center. French in
left and Beaudoin in right. pasted
the pill all over the lot.
The infield also promises to take
on the nature Of a stonewall. Squanto

thing that came his way. Murray.

from last season. See him today and
believe it yourself Artie Abbott
linked up in the infield practice and
his pegs to second were sure.
1t may be a trihe early to wax en-
thusiastic over the team, but after
seeing the workout yesterday one
can't help "hollering" a bit especially
as it was noticed the wise ones were
nodding heads in pleased apprecia-
ton. It's a pretty safe bet that Ben
Houser has corralled a faster bunch
than last year and that's saying
something.
All of the team are in the city and
ready for the bell today. The ques-
ton of umpire has been settled by
engaging the services of Jack Nc
Donough and William Parquette and
these two atbiters will alternate in
the games TO be played, Mac" Icing
slated to work today.
Now it is up to the fans to turn
out and give the boys a royal send

The visitors will have as twirler
