Local Fans Asked
To Insure Continuance
Of Baseball Here
In recent weeks the Farmville base
ball club has improved the talent of
players to a considerable degree and,
as a result, has been winning games
against the best teams in the Bright
Belt League. At the present time
the Farmville team stands third in
percentage in the league with only
Macclesfield and Pinetops ahead.
Walstonburg is close behind in fourth
place. The addition of new and .tal
ented players has brought about a
corresponding increase in the cost of
operating the team, for it must be
remembered that the receipts of one
game here must go to. pay the expen
ses and salaries of players for two
games because when Farmville plays
here, it has to return the game with
out receiving any of the gate re
ceipts. Also, Manager Bonnie Allen
has paid some of the other teams to
play their home'games here, thereby
giving Farmville fans the opportuni
ty to see good baseball at home rath
er than ride out of town to do so.
A call now goes out to baseball
minded fans in this, town and com
munity to come to Manager Allen’s
assistance by helping out with a lit
tle cash. The club is running behind
to the tune of several hundred dol
lars and, if loeal fans want to keep
a ball club and to have one next
year ,it behooves them to send a
cash contribution to Manager Bonnie
Allen. '
Everyone will agree that Manager
Allen has done his part to see that
Farmville has had as good a team as
possible this summer. He has given
his time mid effort plus a little of
his cold cadi to produce a team of
which the town could be proud. Now
is the time for those who like and
want baseball here to make it known
by helping to get the baseball club
out of the red. Mail your contribu
tion to Mr. Bonnie Allen, Manager,
Farmville Baseball Club, or give it
to hint personally. The point is clem’
—if you want baseball to stay here,
now is the time to show it.
Mr. Allen states that he is willing
to show to any person what is it cost
ing to operate the team* and to show
what the income has been so far so
that there can be no misunderstand
ing. Simply stated ft bofls down to
the fact that operating a team of a
bout 15 men has cost considerably
more than the income has been.
Farmville fans should not want one
man to suffer all the loss.
Mail your contribution today or
give it to Manager Bonnie Allan in
person.
