many long. Weary months the baseball
public of ltlchinond has awaited the
opening day of tile new league. Even
the most hbpeftll at times became
tloubtlng Thomases and could not bo
convinced that this new organisation,
would survive the many harsh things |
bald about it.
Xow opening day Is here. Two
Ctsiims are ready to take the llel<j In
Richmond and i i.\ oilier teams in the
other elt'es of the circuit, and d<>
th'ir best to bring the gonfalon to'
the city represented. George Brown,
manager of the Washington club, and
Al Newnham, manager of the Bich
mond club, announce themselves ready.

been tised to advantag . The men uro

opening means less than it docs to ;
Richmond. Though Interest in tin- sue- i

the cities, and (hough there will be no
lack of support 1" any of them, to
Richmond the birth of the United

graduation from the minor league
class into prospective major league
Circles. It is not intended to leave
the Impression that the L'nited States
J.coagui teams as nt present composed
are of major league calibre. The fans
'need nr>t expect this much at the be?
ginning. I'.aeh of the eight clubs is
last, far faster than Class G organisa?
tion, but it will take some little lime
to recruit the clubs up to the standard
set by the magnates.
However, even at this writing, when
ball players and bull parks have been
put together In record-breaking lime,
the teams will measure up to the
standard of the best there Is In minor
league baseball. No expellee has been
tiparcd. No effort has been lacking.
