Need Bigger Crowds

Here we have a great many hasebdl fans. if you want to Pro... that point. just come around this office some night when there are a full schedule of night games. The phones all but jump off the desks with folks calling about the scores. Just lake a walk around town during the summer- and you hear many radios blaring out Boston, Yankees. Baltimore Meta or Pittsburgh games. You will surely be surprised at tile amount of people who follow the games by radio.

“.1. in spite of all this. it's a most difficult problem to get folks out to a ball game at Memorial Field. They just stay gull) ill droves, despite the fine efforts put on by our players.

THERE surely must be a lot of folks who are looking for mmmmng to do on these nice summer evening news- papers have been drumming up this baseball business as much as possible with the hope that the fever would spread. We must confe<s we haven't achieved too much success.

We‘re sure if some folks just got a glimpse of what goes on out there at Memorial Field. they'd like what they see and come back for more. The big trouble is to get out to that first

A Beautiful Ball Park

1' . shame to see a beautiful spot like Memorial Field so sparsely populated most of the time.

We don‘t know where you would find a more beautiful ball park In the Maritimes than you have right here at Memorial Fit-Id. Players on visiting teams have told us time and time again that they thought It was tops. The only complaint we have is that they haven't got around yet to that outfield fence. They may do it this year and then the boys can start getting credit for home runs.

The rest of the setup Is ideal. Probably the boys around here don't really appreciate it. They have always had it good. so they can't make any real cmnparison with other baseball layouts.

So we have the facilities, the players and good officials. What we need and n e worst way is an increase in atirlldan'c. It's rather disheartening to players and promoters it; find that just about nobody cares whether they play or don‘t 1735'

You can remedy that situation this comhlg season. Make up your mind that you're going to become a baseball last in
