That 'Klitmath Falls will have a good club this year. Is not doubted, for ' tbero is plenty ot material at hand ; with which to get the ball rolling The season, however. Is approach ing rapidly and with roast baseball opening with a bang tomorrow, local devotees of the dusty diamond want to see something started local ily. Hence the cry for a promoter, an association or auy other medium through which a ball club can be organised here. Many of the best players who went through the 19! season with the Klamath Pelicans, are on dock here now. ready to j crawl into battered uniforms. Among those who are available ; for a club right oft the bat, are i Itrd Maunders. Eddie Oubark. Andy street. Frenrhy Bayness. Brady j Montgomery, Hank Akin. Mathews. , Kddie ( lark and Uunnar Peterson, i All of these boys played with the j local aggregation last year and j know tbe old stuff that makes base i ball Interesting.
