Nine months after a panel of
citizens started researching options
for Victory Stadium, the group presents
their ideas to Roanoke City Council.

We'll have response from council
and the public.

Plus, Countryside golf course may

And why settle for one dance

Pelicans vs. Avalanche It was a night to bring the heavy :00 jacket to the ball-park as it was just
a bit brisk.

The Avalanche would get on the
board in the first as John Fagan would
ground one to third. The throw to
first is high and Drew Sutton would
score from second as the throw home
sailed over the catcher.

More Salem offense in the third.
Ervin Alcantara grounds 1 to second. A
productive out as Sutton would score
from third. Avs go up 2 to nothing.

*CG final Myrtle Beach The next batter is Fagan who has been 8 hitting all season. No different Salem tonight as he singles to left. Edwin
4 Maysonet scores to extend the Avalanche
lead.

But they give up 7 runs in the
6th inning and lose it tonight 8 to 4.

The horo-dance is typical in the

Guests take each other's hands

uniform step.

Guiness will decide later if the
