BASEBAIL NEWS

We got off to a fine start last Friday evening with our first organizational meeting. Lots of boys were out Saturday selling memberships. Remember, if you have not purchased a SI.OO membership, do so, now. We need your support to further our greatest summer project. We expect 500 boys this year and to handle them we will need more money. Our last 2 years were in the red. Things aren’t any cheaper and we feel SI.OO is a small price to pay to help keep the boys off the streets by providing supervised baseball. Don’t delay, buy those 'memberships today and insure this continued parent supervised summer program of Baseball. Remember the Baseball Clinic set for Saturday, March 31st, 1:00 r p.m., Main Diamonds 15th St. Park. Johnny Hutchings, former Indian player and manager, will be there to talk to you boys. The Clinic will be conducted by High School Coach, Bill Clark, his ass’t. coach, Morris Pllard and the varsity baseball players of Speedway High School. Here you will learn how to play the position you are interested in. All positions will be demonstrated. Be there if you plan to play Baseball!

Speedway Lions Club’s Directory Making Progress Speedway Lion’s Club Community Directory for the Speedway, Chapel Hill and Farley Additions is making progress. There has been a lot of hard work on the part of the Committee in the assembling correct names, telephone numbers addresses and other detail information. This has slowed the project more than was anticipated. However, there is still time for the placing of ads. Please contact Lion Harold Rutledge or others of the committee for more information. The committee has been very pleased by the response everyone has been showing. However, they appeal to all the friends of the Lions Club to get behind them in this project. Members of the Lions Club know these undertakings are a lot of hard work on the part of those responsible for these activities, but the results are also a heart warming reward. If you have not contacted anyone of the Directory committee about an ad in the new directory, please do so. Please remember that this is a community project. Anything that helps the Community, helps everyone living in the Community.
