LINCOLN'S lack of Interest in State league baseball, its refusal to make the turnstiles rlirk at Landis Field, is earning for the capital city an undesirable reputation as the “poorest ball town on the Nebraska circuit.Although the most populous city in the league, larger even than all the others combined, the attendance figures in Lincoln are least of all in the four-club loop.Against this distressing showing, the facts can be cited that several City league games have pulled crowds of 1.500 to 3.000 to the local ball orchard, while the Kansas city Monarehs, crack iv fro team, and the House of 1 av id aggregation of long beards performed only a few nights ago in the presence of 2.500 paid spectators.So If would seem that baseball interest in Lincoln is far from being in a state of rigor mortis. It proves, rather, that the fans of Lincoln know what it is topick their spots. If the attractionconveys an appeal, they turn out in generous numbers.
