"KIDS" WALLOP
"HAS BEENS"
For clean comedy the contest be
tween the "Kids" and the "Has
Beens" at the ball park' last night
would make the efforts of a bunch
of circus clowns sink to insignificance
Quite a crowd was present and most
of the spectators laughed until their
sides ached.
Tony Dotero's "Kids" carried off
the honors. At the end of five in
nings the score stood 14 to 13 in
their favor and the "Has Beens"
were willing to admit themselves
rightly named.
The feature of the game was the
spectacular catching of S. H. Yeo
mans. He stopped them with his
breast protector, as a bystander ex
pressed it. But he stopped them all
right, though his ribs must be sore
today. Charley Hockett loomed up
large in the left field with a perfec
to in his mouth, and Postmaster Kin
dell held down first base firmly.
Mall Inspector Graves capered at
short stop and Harry FlaJiarty and
A. M. Wallacli chased flies across the
muddy flats of Mill creek. Trainor
electrified the fans by his form in
pitching and A. L. Harrison showed
evidence of speed on the bases. Dr.
Gabie played well
Rappuzzi pitched a good game of
ball atyi Burnett Ashley caught like
f veteran. In fact all the "Kids"
played a good game.
"William Hamilton returned from
Haines on the Hegg this afternoon.
