FIRST TICKET FOB
THE 1922 SEASON
Although It is in no way a reflect-
ion on tho loyalty of Abilene fans to
tho home team It 1r worthy 0t note
that tho first application for one of
tho now season tickets which will bo
issued this year copies not from Abl
lene-lnit from Ovnlo It would hard
ly bo trub however to say that tho
applicant la not a homo fan Ho sure-
ly Is it anybody ov.of was:. And ho
doesn't need nn Introduction .to the
rest of thb home fnntf. They all know
lflmeHI. name is AJf White. His
letter says -; -
'I enclose check for 42G.OO for
season ticket for 11)22 baseball games
i "woum nice to iiayoJo. l as soon
to they aro off tho props Although
only ft small stockholder I tako a grout
lntorest In tho team and would have
been at tho mooting last week if pos
fllulo. Yours for nno'thor penntnt
Alf Whito"
The. s6ason tickets havo liot yet
'boon issued but Just as soon as they
aro received itis-8a?o to say that Alf
White will got tho first one from thp
top of tho ..stack.
Thd Second application fbr a season
ticket came cioso on the hools Of tho
first Tuesday morning with h visit to
tho Secretary's offico bji. G O. Cres-
weu wno not only wanted to buy sev-
eral season tlckots but Also to sub-
scribe for a share of now stock in tho
club.
Plana for shaping up Of tho' Eagles
in preparation Tor tho opening Of the
season oh April 20 aro going steadily
forward. Contracts havo been mailed
out to all of last year's reserves as
woll as to a number of promising
youngsters who will bo given a chance
to snow what they havo when the
training season starts next month.
In accordance with tho policy of the
Wost Texas League this year which
iq expressod In tho rigid hgroomont cn-
tored into with regard to salary lim-
it tho bosses ;pf tho Eagles will start
In with tho expectation and tntontlon
of dovoloplpg n machine largely com-
posed of young players it Is declared
that tho ruinous financial policy of
paying oxhorbltant salaries which was
goncrally engaged in by tho loaguo
last season will bo strictly curtailed
this year and preference will bo Klvon
to. tho youngsters who aro vllling to
play for moderate remuneration in tho
hopo of developing for faster company
rather than Jto tho "old hedds" who
havo seen bettor days and arp on the
flocllno 'in their professional careers.
Such ft policy it is believed If strictly
adhered to by all teams In tho league
will not only provide tho public with
keener andBnapplop sport but will
enable the leaguo and the respective
teams to oporate within tho limits of
a sound financial budget.
