IN TOWN FOIl A SHORT visit last Saturday, was
Chalky Itopkins, one-time star centerfielder for the Charles
Town Legion who will be back in his old spot this season.
Looking to be in excellent condition, Chalky told some
of his friends here that he needed very little practice
before he wouhl be ready to take his full cuts at the
plate... Always a favorite here, Chalky's return to the
Legion team is being looked forward too with much in-
