They hope to present at least as good a line up this year as before. The game is tobecalledat6o'clock c m ba k is to belled at 6 o'clock, and there Ispcadmissio1iHbfterti all for the common good. 5 The theft of balls, that was last vear an almost constant ag gravation!!, and that was started by the theft of three new $2 balls' in the game Monday night, is to be discountenanced.
