Williams is his name and he came to

country negroes around the market to
come in with their OK carts Monday and
work for him during the week. Contracts
were secured from several firms. and the
carts were plaStered over with adVertise-

thing wrong with the Quaker City team.
Out Of the first seventeen games played it
lost only four and then to lose five out Of
six seems unreasonable. Cincinnati IS
about the same as last week, but Plttsburg
has gone on that predicted dowpward
course. Connie Mack cannot keep his
