Inspecting the new job done on

track and the additional work
completed on the patrons' car
parking and grandstand areas
last night forecast that this
week's program will be It per
The "Jack Wilson and Sen
ator Player Appreciation Night,"
we're sorry to report. Isn't as
healthy a baby as It waa hoped
to be In the beginning. Original
plans for the big sendoff party
next Thursday night would have
Mgr. Wilson taking home a new
ear and the players pocketing a
wad of cash and various pres
ents. Such were the plans at
the beginning. But money-raising
development, plus the poor
and sometimes defunct coopera
tion from those who were ex
pected to shoulder the bigger
load have forced alterations. As
ft mi now. Wilson gets no car
but Instead ! will be recipient of
a savings bond. His appreciable
Journeymen wll be handed bonds
of smaller denomination? tucked
into engraved billfolds. The ap
preciation gesture will be there
ail right but not In as large a
OjuanUty as at first planned.
Booster Boos Cliff Parker, In

Uoning Ira i Pitcher, would like
all final contributions filed with

Booster Secretary Guy Hlckock
t thc First National not later
than Saturday. Should addition
al rash or Individual presents be
pitched Into the receptacles at
the park during the next few
nights, however, all will be
handled properly.
...The reasons for the altera
lions we'll not list here again,
but the big night will be held
Thursday. And we trust that
those who contribute to It w ill
Sincerely feel that Mgr. Wilson
and his clan are deserving of It.
Whether they finish first or fifth
finally they have done an ad
mirable. Job with what they
bad to work with.

would nave Bus. Mgr. George
Emigh take ZS per cent after

overall expenses and the front

that et would amount to $600
The balance of the gate could
be split on a 00-40 basis sixty
per cent to winning team and 40
to loser, which would amount
to well over 150 per game for
each Senator player. In fact,
the "Stars" would make even a
better deal for the Senator play
era If they want It.
Such is the idea and we think
youll agree It's a good one from
any angle particularly since the
