ONE CHANGE IN TIMES SCHEDULE The South Side Turners and Riley I All-Stars have changed their scene rs 1 battle lu the Dally Times Trophy Tournament Sunday from Riley Park to Fairview diamond No. 1, and they will i get together in the 3:30 period for what should pan out right up there in the j "battle of the age" class. The Rileys have been listed among the east side's best for the past several seasons, and there is no doubt as to the Turners’ class on the south side.

The Highlands, upset specialists, will have another hot time Sunday when they book up with the Mapletons. If the youngsters can pull the same trick against the north side club that they did against the North Side Stars last Sunday, then they might as well go right on through to win the tournament.
