Much interest is manifested in the
opening of the baseball league, when
Parma plays Vale on the letters
home diamond in the city park, on
Sunday the 18th of April. A' bann'-r
crowd is expected to turn out for
this--, the coming game and a larga
number of enthusiastic fans are ex
pected to accompany the Parma te-im
from its home town, to root for
their idols of the diamond.
At the last regular meefing jf
the city council, held Wednesday, it
wa- determined and. enacted that
a lump belonging to the city, was
to hi placed on the far side of the
field and the city water source
connected up to it and to the grand
stand, thereby providing means for
watering all parts of the ball dia
mond and all of its outer field,
and the council further agreed to
purchase a quantity of blue-grass
eed, which is to be planted on the
field and in the diamond, so that
a green-diamond will be the eventual
result. A. E. McGillivray, volunteer
ed to donate the blue-grass seed for the
purpose, which proposition was ac
cepted with a vote of gratitude and
thanks.
ihe boys of the scarlet cloth have
been practicing and are supposed to
be in shape to put up a game to
test the acumen and mettle of raima
and her loyalist noise-makers, who
will have to make some noise at
that, to drown out the noise that
the Vale fans are expected to make
in support of the various plays of
their team.
At the meeting held at the grand
stand, the first part of the week.
Clarence Murray was elected captain
of the Vale team.
