10 Days of Superhuman Effort and We Gan Bid Defiance to the Creditors Knocking at Our Very Door Today Five years aeo this month a small group of men hitched their wagon, not to the

proverbial STAR but to a COMET restless in its Sweep. With a determination to achieve and a courage to match the resolve we joyfully sped through a strenuous season of organization, solicitation and construction which ultimately placed in RICHMOND a new institution an ATHLETIC FIELD second to none in the State and as good and as any in the Middle West. - ... This institution stands today the last word in its special fitness to care for the wants of our COMMUNITY SERVICE, CITY BASEBALL LEAGUES, SEMI-PROF-ESSIONAL CLUBS and ANY OTHER OPEN AIR CIVIC EVENTS continually fostered in a prosperous community. IT IS practically a CITY ATHLETIC PARK and has its function in this community.
