TOPS SHORE
LOOP IN ATTENDANCE

EASTON, Nd, September IA
careful study Of the books Of Claude
d. Wheatley, secretary Of the Easton
Base Ball Club, reveals that the local
team, while finishing in last place in
the Eastern Shore League series, prob
ably leads the circuit in attendance
and did much to maintain the league
financially.
For the season just closed the aver
age attendance at each game was $50,
a fine tribute to team that was in
the cellar practically all the time.
Last year the total attendance at
games played at home was 33,293.
This year it was 1899. During 1925
Easton paid $4,33995 to visiting clubs
and received from other clubs while
playing away from home only $3,-
663.12. These figures show that
Easton paid out $696.83 moro than
was received.
The stalwart support of the home
fans was shown by the fact that in
nine of the games at the local park
the attendance exceeded the thousand
mark, while this mark was only reach
ed on two occasions when the team
played away from home. These ex-
ceptions were a holiday clash and the
opening game at Dover
Crisfield gave the poorest support to
Easton and Salisbury perhaps the
best. Cambridge, ultimate winner of
the championship, was the biggest
outside drawing card at the Easton
field.
