NOTES AND COMMENTS
Long short stop and Richardson second base, would
| about suit Ncw-York
There was string tied to the release OF I'rse, Fuller
and Herman.
Ward Will start a hunting trip through Canada on
the first OF the month and then gradually work south TO
Georgia.
Ncw.York has five remarkable base runners in Fuller.
DOVE Keller Burke and Lyons. Mcmahon is the only
| real slow runner the team.
Nobody can understand Boylc's woful falling of ia
| batting He was a 3oOnark man until THIS season.
