Faculty athletic advisers OF the
high schools may agree 70 play the
series games in the Eastern Stadium

field Is expected within the next few
weeks.
Several objections have been raised
to the changing from Central -
Eastern for the titUlar games. II is

at one end Of tho city would handi-
cap players coming from the oppo-
site locality. Those in favor OF East
ern. however, declare that a better
brand OF ball should be expected Oh
field with no short right field. The
matter probably will ne taken up al
a future meeting Of the faculty ad-
ViSerS.
