Arrangements have been made to add a big base ball ground to the list of summer attractions at Gloucester. A plot of ground 600 feet square, the western end of which will be less that 100 yards from the river bank, has been selected, and work on it was begun last week. The contract calls for its completion by May 1. The grand stand is to seat 10,000 people and the managers of the Athletic Club have made arrangements for a series of games between the reserve nine and other clubs. The grounds will be owned and under the management of William Thompson.
