several In North Carolina, will form
the body ef a glganUo street parade or
procession that la to Inaugurate the
opening of the HIT baeebaJl aeaaon
thla afternoon. At the laet meeting
of the club, the Idea waa suggested
and met with lnatant favor in the eyee
of the members. It waa left In the
handa of the waya and mean com
m It tee which haa had charge of the
arrangements alnoe. Full details of
the parade, the line of march and
other necessary and interesting facta
were made public by William Ward,
chairmen ef the' Rotary elub'a waya
and means committee.
Following the parade, which ia to
end at the ball park right around 4
o'clock, there will be, a band concert,
thta to continue until the umpire calls
play ball for the first time of the year.
The band la scheduled to dispense
stirring muslo between the Innings
also.
The plana of the Rotary club are to
have at least twenty cars In the line
of march containing members of the
club and their wives or lady friends.
The twenty cars carrying club mem
bers will follow directly in the wake
of the band wagon, which will lead
the procession. Mr. Ward stated last

hind those of the club members. The
Rotarlans will be distinguished by

the ball park.
The line of march Is as follows: Up
Willow street to Church, u Church to
Patton avenue, up Patton avenue to
Pack square, around t. e square, down
Broadway to West College, out West
mtttee, which haa had charge of the
College o Government street, down
Government to Aaheland avenue and
down the avenue to the ball park.
Here the parade will disband. -Tie
Rotariana, their vtwes and friends will
go at onoe to a special reserved sec
tlon of the grandstand and from there
view the ball game, every now and
then lending encouragement to Doc
rorrla and his band of Tourists,
whether they be ahead or trailing In
ine rear or the Charlotte pack.
Baseball Interest is at fever heat in
Asheville. If thla contlnuee through
out the day, the Tourists will have no
reason to kick on the welcome ac
corded them, for if Indications point
true, lUttes park Is to be one solid
mass of humanity from 8 C0 o'clock
this afternoon until some time be
tween 5: SO and o'clock, when the
long but happy movement homeward
will be begun. In all likelihood with
an Asheville triumph on the tip of
every tongue.
Clerks and others employed In the
city ball are to atop work at S o'clock
thla permission having been granted
at a recent meeting of the commis
sioner. Doubtless many business
houses will be closed In order that the
employes may attend the Initial clash
while the several labor unions of the
oity win stop work in time to buy a
ticket and get into the grounds before
Mayor Rankin takes en elaborate
wind-up , and shoots a "fast" one
straight at the head of the diminu
tive "Rabbltt" Bradshaw.
As Is stated In another column on
m is page, jrema ana nil men are
ready and waiting for the start of
hostiritlee. - Earl Mack and his
Hornets are expected early this
morning, fresh from a trio of wins
over the Twins, while the unlucky
gent, whose calling Is to call, will be
here ra time to start the game
promptly at 4 o'clock.
It bids fair to be a great day for
Asheville.

ADDITIONAL SPORTS OS PAGE I
Manager Ferris, of the Tourists
stated last night that he would assign
Pitcher Kurfees to tame ths rharlotts
Hornets In the opening encounter of
tne series at Oetes park thla after
noon. Kurfees Is In good shape and
unless he springs a sore arm between
now and 4 o'clock, he ought to be
able to gat In there and give those
norneu tne natue or their lives.
nut-reee pitched Friday against
Greenelboro and won the 4 rat Asne
viiie victory of the series. It was
due to good work on his part, to
gether with bunched hits by his
mates, that brought about the Initial
Greensboro defeat Kurfees Is an ex
perienced pitcher with an awful lot
of stuff and la expected to prove one
of the malnet&ya In the box this sea
son. Winie Kelly, the diminutive short
atop, Is the same smiling elf as of old
en days. Willie la a great little kld
der. He la one of the veterans of the
club and takes a pleasure In Impart
ing his store of knowledge to the
youngsters, of which there Is an
abundance on the club. Willie and
Casper Morpeth are roommates.
And speaking 'of Morpeth, he Just
about leads the league when It comes
to tickling the Ivories. When Mor
peth played with Durham several
years ago, he used to be chief pianist
for Jim Kelly, whose special delight
was singing. "Well we'll row, row row,
way up the river." Down at the
boarding house yesterday afternoon,
Morpeth sat down at the piano and
bAngetl out the classics of Beethoven,
Verdi and Irvin Berlin alike.
'Batch" Moorefleld. the llg catcher
and outfielder, ought to do good work
for Ferris this season. Moorefleld,
who la one of the natural hitters In
the league, looks good either behind
the bat or In the outfield. Ho has a
nice disposition and Is one of the
best-liked men on the club.
Few men have changed during
the course of a short winter as had
Harry Allison, the youfhf ; portsider
of the House of Ferris. Allison Is
much larger than he was last season
and has a lot more epe I on the hall.
He is working hard to master control
and when he does this, he will be
one of the beat pitchers in the league,
All of the players were loud In their
praise or his work Saturday.
Brown, the young right fielder, or
the Tourists, sports a gold watch fob
of which hs is very proud. It Is
made up of a gold medal and an Ivory
baseball. Similar fobs were present
ed to each member of the club win
nlng the pennant In one of the sev
eral winter leagues of Mobile
Brown's team won nine straight
games and finished in first place-
Ball Diayers soon make rrianns
end the Tourlsts-are-nO exception to
the rule. A bevy of them piled into
Ford driven by a rabid fan yester-
dav and spent the afternoon giving
the scenery around town the 0-0. In
the party were Karleon, pitcher;
Brown and Summerlin, outfielders,
md one or two others.
Willie Kelly, who has been playing
n the North Carolina league since
King Kelly was in the third grade, is
delighted with the deal mat sent mm
to Asheville. "Its the beet town in
the league," he said; "Doo Is a fine
fellow, so what more could I want?"
Manager Ferrle Is in no hurry ror
cutting down time to arrive.' On
May 12. Doo will have to reduce nla
squad to twelve men Including him
self, and this is going to prove a au
flrnlt task, for all of the men are
showing up so well that Doc will have
to scratch his head several times be-
fnr. atffnlnr snv Dink SlIPS.
After entertaining Earl Mack's
Hornets for four days this week, the
Tourists will pack tholr grips and set
sail for a road trip of elffht days. The
half of thla will be spent with the
Durham Bovlnes at Durham and the
tetter part as guests of Charlie Clan
cy's Winston-Salem Twins In the best
business town In the state. It means
a hard trip for the locals, for both
Durham and Winston-Salem boast
strong teams. If Ferris aod his gang
can break even In the eight after
trimming the Hornets three out of
four. Asheville ought to be more than
satisfied.
Returning from Twmtown on May
the Tourists will begin an el-ht-dav
stand at Oatea park on Monday,
Mar 7, with Raleigh as the visiting
team for the first four days, and
Greensboro for the Inst, four.
