Here 16 a kick from a baseball fan: “Why sheuld we lovers of haseball who happen to live in towns along | the trolley line that runs through the Quinebaug valley be charged 25 cents | to see the games that are being' nm»\ ed this summer Twenty-five cents is the charge for seeing real baseball games, games In which real leazue teams and real league players com pete, Of course, if a man does not | want to pay the price hereabouts he | can remain away, but he may be a fan | and may have to submit to the hold- up if he wants to see & game.” | “Who gets the money? Probably | the players. And if this Is true that may be reason that the sport s be- ing killed around here, for as soon a8 & young man gets so he can catch ball once out of four times he de- | mands several dollars for a couple of | hours of playing. This does not look | right. ‘The public should be given something like the value that it pays for. Why not charge ten cents for ten-cent games, which is about the average of what we are getting?” The above will interest many fans in towns along the trolley line, but it does not prove conclusively that the | high cost of seeing games is what is | killing the sport in this part of east- ern Connecticut. Take Danielson, for | instance. A fine baseball field has been fitted by the public playgrounds committee, a backstop built, bases | provided, etc. The cost of leasing the | lot has been met by public spirited | citizens.
