From Weilnesrlay's Dally
The official opening of the new
Interstate baseball league will be
held on Sunday. May Cth. with the
weather being such that the new in
fant organization can ftage their cur
tain raiser.
The opening date will see the
Omaha members of the league play
ing in the smaller towns, the Vinton
Street Merchants clashing with
Plattsm juth. the Knights of Colum
bus with the Council P.lutYs Athletics.
North Side Athletic club at Malvern
and the Fort Crook Soldiers- with
Missouri Valley.
The game here will be called at .'!
o'clock and will be made as much or
a notable event as possible, the
Kagles band having promised to come
out and get the season officially open
ed and will lead the procession to
the baseball park where the opening
fling in the baseball season of 1928
will be staged.
It is expected to have Mayor John
P. Sattler hurl the first ball of the
game and with Claud C. Smith, pres-
ident of the council
doing the re-
ceivni'j it he can.
The local management has seemed
the services of Faye Spidell, who was
on the team last season as catcher,
but who will be shifted to some oth
er position this season as the team
now has the services of Ed Gradoville
as the receiver of the team.
The locals feel well pleased in the
fact that they will have the services
of Ralph Gansemer in the short ter
ritory for the coining season, Iialph
being one of the most promising of
the younger players that has worked
'out with the locals for a great many
; seasons and should develop into a
j real find in the short territory to
replace the terrible Dutchman, who
is to hie himself to the west with the
cowpunchers.
Ernest Trumble, now located here
with the Plattsmouth State bank,
will also be a strong addition to the
team and his services as a pitcher
will be a great asset to the team ami
give two good hurlers. himself and
Swanson to the team, in addition to
whatever other flingers that Manager
Wolff may be able to land.
The new league will have some
real teams and a fast quality of base
ball may be looked for when the new
league gets started to function.
The local team will need the pat
ronage of the public to place the kind
of a team that will be a credit to the
city In the field and those who wish
to see a good fast team here and
the city to enjoy the advertising of
a winning team should be out and

only last year.
"March and April are the months

Jthe lowest is almost always record-
ed in September.
j "Only eight years ago in March,
j 1020 the tuberculosis mortality
i rate among Metropolitan Industrial
policyholders was 17S.7 per 100.000
and the September figure was 16.1.
Thus the death rate, in 192S. in the
month of highest mortality has actu
ally declined to a point below that
recorded eight years ago in the
month of lowest mortality.
'Eight years ago. no one would
have dared to predict a death rate
from tuberculosis in March of 100
per 100.000 wage earners and their
families. Yet the fall in the rate has
year after year exceeded expectations
and apparently even greater gains in
the control of the disease are in
sight."
