The League is complete and baseball fans in the community may rest secured of some good games this summer. Comprising the eight team league are the Orphans, Christians, Battery A., Durham Hosiery Mill, H.S.B.B.K. of C., the “Bulldogs” and the City Club. The line-up of the entire eight teams will be given in the News in a few days, and it is thought that the League will open around June 10th. The managers of all teams will meet Thursday night to formulate plans and rules, and elect officers. A playing schedule will also be adopted at this meeting. Merchants who are willing to contribute say prizes for the longest hits, best batting average, best fielding average, most home runs, etc., during the season need not be backward in coming forward.

The score card privilege and cold drink privilege bids must be in for consideration this week so that action may be taken on them next week.
