I was extremely disappointed, however, in the small attendance of local baseball fans. It seems to me that more Juneau people should be jmpressed with the high calibre baseball being. played here. They will see good baseball ang thrilling contests. It's certainly worth a lot more than the nominal admission charge. Ball players will do petter, too, if niore people will turn out. The more cheering heard offers more inspiration and this results in even Letter ball playing. These athletes den't turn out just merely to engage in a contest be- tween themselves. They are a form of amusement and are playing to entertain as many people as pos- t, I had the privilege | ing them. Three local civic organi- zeticns have contributed much money to team support. Many local businessmen have contributed to |cther funds. The Juneau Fire De- |partment has also done consider- |oble to make baseball possible here. I urge everyone in Juneau to go t¢ the ball park and witness the three games played there every week. It's worthwhile and you'll leave sorry that you hadn't at- tended a local baseball game earlier. b Sincerely, JOHN G. QUILICO FROM HOOD BAY Mrs. W. A.
