NAVIN III'I.I), DiriHOIT.
M.Iup PIuv" had his innings at Na
vin field in DeSrolt Saturday and
when he was through mussing up the
playing field it was an impossibility
for the Detroit All Stars and Alma
collegian:-? to stage their scheduled
contest, the field being a regular lake,
the bases sticking up like .small is
lands. The coming of the rain which
caused the postponement of the fray
for the Detroit Ilranch of the Dis
abled Veterans of Foreign Wars
promises to gie the veterans a large
fund in the long run. Someone had a
hunch in Detroit last week and as a
result the contest was insured with
Lloyds for $:i,000 against rain be
tween the hours of X:)0 a. m. and
1:00 p. m. The cost of the insurance j
was S.100.00, so the f romer service j
men will be ahead nearly $2,100 from j
the insurance on the fray. i
Several thousand tickets had been '
sold for the contest by solicitors j
around the city of Detroit, but the j
weather had been so threatening in i
Detroit that only a few more than j
1,000 people had passed the turnstiles j
an hour before game time, when the j
deluge started, which forced the post-j
ponement of the contest. Rain checks j
act onipanb-d all of the tickets, and1
the holders Were urged to keep the
rain checks for the play otf. Solic- j
ifois'will continue to sell tickets for:
the fray until it is played, and it is
believed that upwards of 10,000 tick- i
tts for the contest will be disposed of. j
Immediately it was certain that the ;
contest could not be staged Coach
Campbell and Manager Owens of the
All Stars got together to fix a date
for the playoff. Campb?ll suggested
that the game be staged Monday, as
his nun were all in Detroit. Owens
protested that there was not time
enough in which to advertise the post
poned contest and the two men then
decided upon this coming Saturday,
July 8.
This will mean that the Alma col
legians will again be forced to get
together from their various vacation
points to do battle for the disabled
soldiers. It promises to be much
harder for the collegians than for the
members of the Detroit team, as some
of the Alma men must travel miles
to get to the scene of action. This is
especially true of Captain Crittenden,
who is spending the summer in Mar
ouette, and who will be forced to make
the trip twice in eight days from
Marquette to Detroit for his one con
est. The Alma men are very anxious
for the fray, however, in spite of the
fact that they realize fully the
strength of the Detroit aggregation
which contains several former big
leaguers.

had fallen hclev the sale of the year

needs for lucre funds had arisen
Middgan was one of the few states
in ihe whole nation in whith the seal

previous year.
