AH NOW READY FOR OPENING BALL CAME
Weatherman Has Promised Fair Day Jor Sunday Game Between Athletics and Remington. * 1 i Manager Kiplihger is today getting everything in readiness for the base ball opening tomorrow. He has purchased several of the seats whicfh were used last year in the Princess Airdome and they will be used for players’ benches and for spectators along the side lines. It is expected to keep two of them exclusively for players’ benches and anyone who squats down in a players’ bench is certain to find himself invited to get out. The tag system of tickets will be used for this game, at least, and all who have paid their admission will have the tag on their coats. Others will be bounced by the grounds police, W. S. Parks and B. D. McColly. Thirty-six loads of earth was hauled into the diamond and was carefully leveled and rolled and will be in very good condition for the game. The box office has not yet been erected and there will be quite a rush •probably at the gate, but only those having the tickets will be admitted. The team will probably line up as follows: Catcher—Elmer Wilcox. Pitcher—Howard Clark. First Base—Swartzell.Second Base—Conn. Third Base—Virgil Robinson. Shortstop—Morgan. Field—Elder, Denniston, J. Wilcox and Parks.
