WORK PROGRESSES ON “TOWER” FIELD CONTINUE ACTIVITIES TO- DAY: INFIELD LAID OUT of Sav Civy circuit bers ir W. E. Lowe, athle the C.G.C. Pandor The Citizen this m the infield of the new baseball diamond at East Martelio Tower had been laid out by members of the Coast Guard nine of the Is- land City League and that work was progressing on the outfield. Mr. Lowe stated members of the other clubs in the league were to continue activities this morning and afternoon. It is possible the field will be in read- iness for play tomorrow. Bleachers and backstop at Navy Field were to be removed to the new site today. Under existing conditions, Lowe said, no definite announce- ment concerning games for to- morrow afternoon could be made before The Citizen went to press. “If members of the other teams in the league put in as much work on the new diamond as my men have done so far”, Mr. Lowe declared, “Key West will have an excellent field for the staging of baseball contests”.

VP's, getting off to a late start due to two postponed are now perched on top of the Service League with a comfortable margin. They have played three contests, one each with the other trio of clubs in the circuit, and have won them all SGT. GEORGE NODINE, of the Army, boasted before the game the Soldiers would “take” the Airmen. Toward the end of the contest. with the Doughboys on the short end of the score, Nodine sulked all over the field, very much downcast. However, not until the finai out, did he give up hope of ‘winning. Sergeant is the shortstop of the Army ten— a spirited and never-say-die play- er. THE BATTLE for first-place of the Service League last night drew a fairly large crowd of en- thusiastic rooters.
