HARRINGTON

last week to formulate plans for this
seasons baseball under the direc-
tion of live organization. John H
Holloway was selected for chairman
of the meeting and Fred Lord, sec
retary; treasurer, Baynard Smith. A
) finance committee or board of direc-
tors was also chosen as follows
} John H. Holloway, chairman; Will
liam Stokes, B. l. Shaw, Arthur Tay-
lor, Lewis Slaughter, Grover Lord,
Clarence Morris, w. w. Sharp and
Edward B. Rash. 1t is the plan of
the board of directors to place a
, team on the field composed of home
players. Harrington has always
been a baseball town, the members
of the team have developed from high
school and later become stars in
different colleges in the east. These
boys are all home for the summer
and it is believed a strong team can
be placed on the field. Included
among some of the players are:
Short, Washington & Lee College;
Holloway and Legates, Fishburne
Military College; Ryan, University of
Delaware; Lord, Goldey College;
Hall, Masten. Locates, Day and
Shaw are former high school grad
yates, while several others are still
in high school. In order to keep
some of the stars home, the direc-
tors will have to work out the finan-
cial problem. Already other towns
have been offering the players good
money for some of the games and it
is believed that a plan can be de-
vised to pay the local boys some
thing for their efforts. 1t is gener-
ally agreed that the price to home
games should be Csc and anyone in
! terested in baseball should be will
| ing to donate this amount to each
game. The board of directors held
a second meeting on Friday evening
when they met the members of the
| team to discuss the finances and sign
the players. At the meeting on Wed
nesday evening, Kessler Farrow was
selected as manager with Charles
Hopkins assistant manager. The fol-
lowing games are scheduled: June
25, Edge Moor, home. July 2, Fred
erica, home; July 4, two games with
FELTON,. Games are pending with
EastOn, Seaford and Milton. Any
first class team desiring games
should communicate with Fred Lord,
Harrington, Del, secretary.
