Description

"A New Ball Team: Organization Perfected and First Game to be Played with Stanleys.

Baseball matters have been pretty quiet locally for some time, but a new team has been organized  The new team will be known as the Athletics . . . ."

Of the listed first nine, four are from North Adams with a catcher from Johnstown (NY?), a pitcher from Gloversville (NY), and two players from the Williams College club.

"If sufficient encouragement is received, an effort will be made to get the Cuban Giants to play at the Hoosic Valley fair . . . .  It is a long time North Adams has had . . . as good a ball team as this bids fair to be."
