So brunette is the setup for the battle tomorrow that neither of the managers of the two competing teams, Erv Hagerup of the Cardin- als and Al Bloomquist of the Mer- chants, have much of an idea as to the capabilities of, or whom may be on, his lineup for the first pitch at 5:30 o'clock. The two leaders got a brief look at a few of their new men in ac- tion at the plate last evening be- fore the workout was hailed out. Both the Merchants and Cards at- tempted an outdoor turnout last evening, and, with several Moose players on the field to fill out, suc- ceeded in holding a short batting practice. Mystic “X” The mystic “X" still plays a most important part in the local base- ball setup, however, with only for- mer performers in Juneau baseball presenting known quantities. Old- timers on the Cardinal squad in- clude: Manager Hagerup, Sammy Nelson, George Benson and Dan Livie. Seasoned campaigners signed with|is out, as all three squads in the adv. the Merchants are: Manager Bloomquist, Elmer Lindstrom, and Ralph Bardi.
