ot In the record made by the local ' team during the 1911 season. Crown Point for one thing succeeded in shut

cept "Whiting and the only team to turn that trick on the "champs" was Gary in the Brat game of the double-
: header on July 30. Crown Point kept
thir pitching staff during the entire reason and ended with four of the
original players, which Is something
that hardly any other team in the league can say. In point of attend
ance the county seat leads the field
having paid into the league as its 10 per cent of the gate receipts , $195.86.
which amount la also a record-breaker.
Whiting proved the strongest advereary for the pennant winners to go against, . they only winning . one . game
Irom them ana playing another to a
tie in eleven innings. Whiting's pres
ent place In the league, however, shows that an element of bad luck figured against tie locals in their games with
the oil cl'y team, as they were consist
ently beaten by the others teams which proved easy picking for "Crown
Point during the pennant race.
The champs and their manager
are making arrangements for a "pennant raising day" to be In the nature of a baseball field day, to which the entire county will be invited, and hope to make the proceeds from this event defray the over-expenses incurred during the entire season. Manager Keiser expects to play three or four postseason games providing the weather is favorable, the fans being anxious to prolong the season and be given an .opportunity to- see the best little team in northern Indiana give battle to some of the topnotchers. The following is the Crown Point team's playing schedule during the 1911 season, with the results of the games played,' and with the exception of the farce game with Cast Chicago at Hammond, is a record of which any team can be proud.

A city like Crown Point with its valuable homes should have the best and most modern means of flre protection, even If it has to econo. mize on other things. A team of horses and an outfit to haul the hose, ladders and other necessary apparatus to fires is the very least Crown Point should have -in th way of fire protection to the city. The plan should be further
investigated and carried through. Reports from the brick manufacturing company who have been investigating the value of land northwest of Crown Point for brick-making purposes were received by Crown Toint citizens yesterday, to the effect that the clay is ideal and especially adapted to the manufacturing of brick, terra cotta and other allied building material. Samples of the brick made from this local clay were sent ''for inspection and showed them to be of the best quality, hard, smooth and of the very best color. The clay is said to possess all the ingredients necessary for the manufacture of a high grade brick, and those who have been Investigating the matter are very much enthused over the finding of the clay deposits. It is said that the gentlemen who started the preliminary investigation with a view of establishing a plant here, are more than anx

to invest in stock of the concern. Whether anything will materialize from the Investigation remains to be seen, but the location and adaptability of the soil for brick-making purposes has been shown to be ideal and looks like a good place for the investmont f
