Have Hired
Prospective Manager
The committee to select a manager for the Wilson Athletic
Association met last evening in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce and after
canvassing the various officers from prominent baseball players over the country,
decided to wire for Al Birdwell to come to Wilson for a conference with the
management here. The committee is composed of Messrs. J.C. Eagles, C.B. West,
Lt. Ben Smith, Will Adams, and H.E. Borlow.
Mr. Birdwell is a noted baseball player, having served with
the Giants of New York up to about three years ago. He has been with the
Houston, Texas, team during the past season, and pulled that club to second
place.
Work has already begun on the park, and the tobacco stalks
are being raked up and will be burned. Mr. Wyatt the contractor is at work on
the grandstand.
