Schedule.

The officers of the Twilight D-Ball
League of Pine county met at Sand
stone Monday evening of this week
to formulate plans and adopt rules
and regulations to govern the 1941
playing season of softball in this
league
The official opening date was set
for Monday night, May IL, and start
ing time for all games was set at 6:15
D. m. unless otherwise arranged for
by the home teams as called for
in the official schedule.
Pick League Officials.
The towns and teams represented
at the Monday night meeting were
Askov, Finlayson, Sandstone, Fed
eral Correctional Institution Officers,
Institution Inmates, Friesland and
Hinckley. The officers selected for
1941 are as follows: DR.. M. C. Lar
son, Sandstone, president; V. E. Shat
er, Finlayson, secretary; and the di-
rectors are DR.. E. 1. Parson, Askov;
Art Berg, Friesland; Mr.. LeBar, In
mates; w. H. Stevenson, Officers;
and Jack Hurley, Hinckley.
Few Rule Changes.
It was decided that in the case
of rained out games the home team
must make arrangements to have the
game replayed later the same week.
Another matter up for discussion was
that of playing under lights and the
decision reached was that the visit
ing team, on the diamonds equipped
with the lighting system, could de-
eide whether or not to play under
lights or start at the regular time,
6:15 p. m. Other rules and regula-
tions used last year will prevail
again this season.
The interest shown at the meet
ing Monday indicated that the pros
poets for an interesting season of
diamondball are very good, and the
directors urge everyone to get behind
his team and support the boys in this
growing summer sport.
