SUNDAYS GAMES
Warren at Mount Clemens.
Fraser at Center Line.
Richmond at New Haven.

The Warren-Mount Clemens
game was originally slated for
the south county field but was
shifted to Mount Clemens by mu-
tual agreement of the managers,
made at the loop meeting on
Thursday evening.
PLAYOFF TEAMS
Under projected terms of the
playoffs, the winning club at
each game will receive 60 per
cent of the net gate and the los
ers 40; the home team in all cases
pays for the balls used. The
playoffs will take minimum of
four and maximum of five
weeks, barring inclement wealth
err.
Richmond's invasion of New
Haven to meet the loop leader is
regarded as furnishing the top
contest of tomorrow afternoon,
with Richmond attempting to
gain revenge for it's 81 loss in
June. Warren suffered a 90 loss
to Mount Clemens in the first
meeting of the two teams; this
was the same margin that Cen
ter Line defeated Warren by in
the first-round meeting of the
two. All games begin at 3
o'clock.
