Traveling Men
Seek to Rib Up
Base Ball Game
The egotism of the traveling sales
men is proverbial, but their most re
cent display of this prime requisite to
make a success of life is the limit, and
it does seem that they have overstep
ped all bounds of propriety and EGO.
The “I’s” certainly have it and
whether they get their self-confidence
from the home company or whether
this over-abundance of self-advertis
ing comes from their Seward custom
ers is not known, but in any event in
issuing the sweeping challenge to all
comers for a baseball game to be
played in Anchorage it unquestiona
bly smells of Sulzerism.
Nor does it effervesce, for there will
be no come-back and the challenge is
accepted. Just who will have the
privilege of beating this aggregation
of 15 traveling salesmen is not known,
but as they direct their main attack
I against the staff of The Daily Times
and the Anchorage Lumbermen, the
winning team will probably be select
ed from the personnel of these two
i concerns.
The white button brigade commence
at the outset to try and run in Jerry
Murphy and Fred Martin, being the
only two Anchorage citizens wearing
i Sulzer buttons, but as these two re
nowned athletes have been barred
from all previous athletic events, not
I on account of their ability as much as
on account of the city’s respect for
Morningside, this was passed for
cause, and then again there are some
faint hope of changing the political
views of these heretofore fairly sens
ible citizens.
out it merely goes to show the un
due advantage they are prone to take
and the tactics they would adopt to
, win the game.
Not that the entire bunch of the 15
traveling men who are the present
time visiting in Anchorage are Sul
zerites, but the majority for a time at
least, did wear the white button, not
of purity, but of diplomacy, but grad
ually these buttons are being put
away to be sprung again in Sulzer
town. It has been suggested that the
Honorable James Wickersham also
start a store in some cross road town
but this isn’t necessary, and it is hard
ly probable that the territorial dele
gate will accede to the suggestion.
Headed by A! Slyman, of hardware
I fame, this popular aggregation invad
I ed Anchorage and immediately start
ed something. These boys usually do
and are always welcome, but not be
ing satisfied in selling the largest bill
of goods on their trip they “stoop to
conquer” and have gone in for ath
letics.
Just why Jack Chamberlain, who is
[of the vintage of'’76, still thinks he
[can hit .400, at this advanced age, is
unknown, nor is the above average
weight of Oak Olson a criterion for
being a heavy hitter.
They say that Gus Gilles,. familiarly
known as the “Optimo Kid” carries a
book of rules with him continually
and that Hi West has been consulted
j by Walter Camp in the selection of
the All-American team; but is this a
sufficient reason for aspiring to honor
and fame? Joe Meherin once saw Ty.
Cobb on the Orpheum circuit and Dud
ley Allen was told that he resembled
Charlie Chaplin and these two celeb
rities want to add luster to their name
and get in the diamond light.
Tom Martell claims to have intro
duced Matthewson to Manager Mc
Graw and for this reason wants to
pitch, which position is being contest
ed by “We Raise the Dough” Gaspard.
Dad Inghram still talks of the good
old days of three-old-cat and G. W.
Miesner’s knowledge of baseball is
confined to box scores.
It may be all right for Carrington
and Hewitt to claCn proficiency and
will no doubt be a distinct acquisition
to the traveling men’s baseball team
who have issued a sweeping challenge
to the whole of Anchorage. The local
Bill’s club and moreover the P.A. P.’s
want the glory, but to a selected team
| from the staff of The Daily Times and
j the champion Lumbermen will the
! honor be conferred of trouncing this
all-star baseball team composed of ge
nial, capable and distinctly American
II representatives of the most reliable
business houses of this great United
; States.
