Good Crowds, No Seats! Some very fine crowds have been turning out to these soft-ball soft-ball games, although the present bleachers are non-existant. An effort is being made to erect temporary seats for this season, and we believe some very fine bleachers will be installed at the softball field next spring. The lights have added a great deal of interest to the games and we believe more improvements will be added as soon as possible. Don't miss these interesting games, we will try and improve conditions as we go along,' and hope you may enjoy this splendid splen-did recreation. O |
