In a short conversation with the writer of this column the heavy- ; weight athlete made it plain that); he was not interestd in baseball. ; “Give my cousin Barcelo a chance | he is a beter ball player than " will ever be” quoted Mr. Pena. Young Barcelo by the way has! made a name for himself by his ability to sock the ball. Key West baseball fans are set- ting Roy Hamlin and other league officials nuts with the interroga- tion “when are we going to get sheds for these bleachers?” Personally I don’t blame base- ball enthusiasts for making a complaint against sitting in the hot sun from four to five hours watching a ball game. True fans are not paying anything for ad- mission into the contest but chances are that the biggest per- centage of them will be glad to pay the admission fee providing they could sit under shade and enjoy the games, ‘We are hoping that something will be done between now and July 2 so that the ball games may ‘draw the anticipated crowds on ~wilttmantige the Jocahaggre~j i. gation and who is:acnterben: of j the Sport Commiftee aranging the highway celebration the tentative schédule for the series of ball) games will be the following: All doubleheaders—July 2: Miami vs.!
