At a meeting with the press and
radio, held on Tuesday, Rufus Ed
wards, general manager of the Ha-
gerstown Braves, announced a new
and novel plan for the sale of gem
eral admission tickets for the open
ing game of the 1852 season - and
here's how it will work.
Beginning tomorrow, any respon-
sible citizen, as well as all clubs, or
CARNATIONS, or groups, may secure
blocks of tickets for the opening
game, that they will then sell to their
friends, fellow members, etc, at the
regular price - rs cents - and as
fast as they sell them they can come
back for more. This public sale will
continue until midnight April Fl,
two days before the opening game.
In other words, the whole COM
munity is going to get chance to
take part in filling the stadium to
capacity for the opening game, with
an attendance of 5000 the goal to
shoot at.
But that's not all
To make the novel sales plan more
attractive, Mr.. Edwards has announc-

Do You Want To Win A Season Ticket For
All The HagerStOWn Braves Home Games?

ed that the individual, club, organi-
cation, or group that sells the most
tickets, will be awarded tax-paid
season ticket, with an addition award
of $25 Defense Bond to the indi-
vidual club, organization, or group
that has the second highest sale.
If the season ticket is won by an
Individual, that person, of course,
can use it for all the 1852 home
games, but in the event that the
season ticket is won by a club, or
ganization, or group, the ticket will
be issued in the name of that group
and it can be used by different mem
bers all through the season.
AS an illustration, suppose the
Boys Club sells the most tickets
Then the ticket would be issued in
the name of the Boys Club and the
supervisor of the club would let g
different boy use it for each home
game.
So fans, here's chance to show
how much you appreciate having or
gained baseball in Hagerstown, anc
also a chance to win a season ticket
or a $25 Bond.

Spanked by their sensational
guard, Leo Burke, who had IA field
goals and two fouls, for total of
30 points, the Hagerstown Hubs de-
feated Allegany High of Cumberland

The Hubs will now move to Col

Allegany led 1916 at the quarter and
1920 at the half, but the Hubs start

ended 80 to 80 in their favor Then,
in the fourth and final period, the
sensational play of Burke, who scored
6 field goals and made good foul
shots during the period, wrapped
the game up for the Hubs.
Although Leo was the star of the
game, too much credit cannot be
given the rest of the boys on the
squad. Koontz was also a tower of
strength and came up with goals
and fouls, while Cutshaw (who had
to be taken out of the game due to
an injured ankle) Meier, Reel and
Gossard, all broke into the scoring
column.

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
By DOUG STEWART

When you fans pour through the
gates for the Braves opening game
of the season against Allentown on
Wednesday night, April %, you will
find that the Stadium has something
of new look.
The leftfeld bleacherites will find
modern, steel bleachers - the last
word in comfort and safety - and
they will also discover that they will
no longer suffer from that pungent
odor from pools of stagnant water in
the open drain that runs outside the
leftfeld fence. Before the season
opens the City will have thoroughly
cleaned out the drain and graded it
so that the water will drain straight
on through.
Another improvement will be a
brand new concession stand, that will
enable Mr.. Butler and his staff to
give you better service.
Rufus Edwards, general manager
of the club, is already making plans
for a record breaking crowd for
opening night and you will find out
all about it, elsewhere on this page
The eighth annual WEI Invita-
ton Bowling Tournament will be

prizes, to say nothing of the WEI
trophy for the winner.
Entries are coming in from Ha-
gerstown and surrounding commune
ties in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Vir,

dictates that this will be the biggest
tournament yet played here.
