again. Officials think student in¬
terest at a high pitch will help
FSC trempndously InMhe goal t>r
getting a ball pars.
The proposed park would be lo¬
cated west of the campus across
from  Cedar Avenue.

has. former commissioner ot ath¬
letics, are planning to appeal
Tore a budget committee in
ramento to Investigate the possi¬
bility of funds being reallocated
for the future ball park.

Beiden are scheduled lo meet
later this month with local towns¬
people and Sacramento legislators
from this area to discuss the.vari¬
ous problems connected with the
development or the park.
