Mr.

Rountree said many fans lad asked for a ''hometown' club, but many of those loca slayers who came out for the team have since been unable to play for various reasons. "And, too, some of our players are also school coaches am have had to be busy with schoo events this With good crowd support what the tenm lacks in playini ability could be made up in en thusiasm, said Mr. High spot of Saturday night' game for fans was Pitche Biiiy Waters towering home rti: over the middle of the left 1'ieli fence.
