Again this year there is need of vigorous organized cheering at the baseball games. the game with Brown yesterday will serve as a striking example of this. During the first six innings of the game the large crowd on the benches watched the playing in the most discouraging silence. Beyond a little spasmodic clapping there was no applause whatever.
