In accepting the challenge thrown
at him in such a disdainful and
braggadocio manner by Manager
Summy. of the Lumberman's team,
Manager Greer of The Daily Times,
wants the reading public to know
that while the employes of The
Times are ardent devotees of the
game of baseball they are not ball
players nor do they strive to achieve
fame in this particular calling and
take this opportunity of apologiz
ing before the public in this capac
ity. Naturally Mr. Greer hesitates
to lead his bunch to slaughter and
expects defeat and why not in the
face of such adds? Their entire
team is composed of stars and ce
lebrities and the only star he has
is “Sport” Smith who ippeared in
some of the large eastern theatres, I
years ago. Who has he to offset the
terrific inshoots of a Campbell or
to cope with the strategy of a Nor
rnile? It would be ridiculous to
even think of trying to emulate
Maxwell as a swatter of home runs.
And there are the fleet Maitland and
Berry on the bases to say nothing of
Summy who takes them with either
hand. With the jaunty Bade behind
the bat and Smith, the ground cov
erer. in the field and the terrible
Howard as a pinch hitter. what
chance has Manager Greer? Then
there are the unknowns that they
are keeping dark and secret from
j the Fleming and Turner • combina
| tlon and they even imported the
| mighty McNally from the station.
