More than four weeks have
elapsed since the opening of the
Times Junior Baseball ASsOcia-
tiOn but the entries are still
coming in. The number of
teams entered in the past week
raised the total to 81.
This figure is significant of the
way in which the boys have re-
ceived the Times Loops. The
number is still short of 100
though. Come on boys, lets have
some speed. Let's reach that 100
quota. Only nine more teams are
needed to make this total. Action
and more of it, fellows. let's have
those team entries. The closing
date of entry will be Monday,
April 27. No entries will be re-
ceived after this date.
With the league opening in the
very near future it will be neceS-
sary for the teams to round their
baseball fields into shape. If per-
n1its are necessary it is advisable
that you get them in the next few
days. For the league shows con-
siderable promise and is expected
to start Saturday or the following
week.
Remember, the baseballs will
be furnished by the Times Junior
Baseball Association and the
winning team may keep the balls.
The umpires will bring these
balls to the games. The officials
will also have an official score
book in which they will keep all
records.
AS a matter of information it
might be advisable to inform you
of some of the more important
regulations of the league. The
play in this league will be gov
erned by the latest edition of
the Spalding rule book. All
players must be bona fide anna
teurs.
Players will be allowed to
change teams if they send
written notice to The Times
office stating the same. The
playing of ineligible men will
eliminate the team in concern
from future competitions. They
will be Immediately disqualified
for such an OffenSe.
The officials for this league
have been thoroughly tested, and
have proven that they are cap
able of handling the games in
"a" No. l style. All officials
have received their final instruc-
tions and are ready for the start
Of the league play.
The most valuable player OF
The Times Junior Baseball Asso-
citation will be sent to the world
series absolutely free by the as
sociation. This player will be
picked by the director of the
league along with the help Of the
officials. But this is not the
only prize to be awarded. There
will be many more that will be
announced at some later date.
What are they? Well you wait
and see for yourself. But. when
they are announced they will
knock you off your feet. So sit
tight, boys, and wait for the secret
prizes to be revealed.
Better hustle those entries in.
