Ball League Of Churches Still Going At Y M C A
At a meeting of officials of the Church Baseball league in the Y M C A building last night it was decided to renew efforts and start next week. Four games were postponed this week but a repeat will not be allowed. Central Presbyterian, a major draw, failed to appear twice and will be re-enlisted. The First W I and Second UP teams quarrelled over a late start with no notification or scorer present. Weather permitting, games will begin next week with a schedule listing First O Pooys, Epworth E, First Christian vs First Baptist, First U P vs Second Pp Vote, Second I P vs Central Presbyterian, and First Christian vs First Pe. The champions will play three times next week to boost attendance. An auto will call for 8 Jones, J Jones, Phillips, Riley and Rose at Lone Avenue at 6 pm Monday.
