long walks We thought best not to
axe any practice today owing to the
treatment we have received from the
college boys and the most desirable
place they have put Us to get in con-
dltion for the championship race the
Y. NJ. C.. A-and from the converse
ton had with some of the students
last evening, they thought best for
US not to do any preliminary work
today.
The boys are rounding up in good
shape and have the soreness nearly
worked out.
Hoy, the third baseman, arrived
this morning from st. Joseph and is a
cracker-jack both in the field and at
the bat. and with link at first, Hoy at
third. Cope at short and the other
man to arrive for second base, Rock
Island will have an infield that will
travel a fast pace, and with Tate,
Poor and Hopkins in the outfield,
things will be taken care of with Iron
Arm" O'Leary behind the bat.
The boys are all confident in the
team for its showing, and there will
not be a more gentlemanly set of
players to represent town than the
Rock Islanders.
