meant.
II Grifith's A Star" cast shows one
fhalf the Improvement in its playing that
the ball park shows in appearance. II
Twill soon be at the top OF the American
League heap.
The fans that turned out to welcome
ffhe Invaders back home This afternoon
In the first game with the Beaneaters
iwere given the first surprise the min
lutte they got by the smiling Mr.. Gavin
snt the big gate.
The park SO dignihed in name a few
weeks ago is now on in reality. and
Ihy far the prettiest ball grounds in the
League. With such surroundings, IL the
lGordonites do not win the greater part
'of the fourteen games to come they
should ask for transfers to the
Texas League.
The team to-day was the strongest
THAT Griffith could put In the field. from
iChesbro and o'Connor right around the
bases and out to Lefty" Davis, the re-
liable Davy Fultz and Wee Willie"
tNeeief IN has now elevated position In
right garden.
'Grin' was confident OF taking the
opening game from the team that gave
Ills boys such a severe drubbing a few
weeks ago and also looked forward to
taaving all h best of the series.
IT have no kick to make about our
trip" said he. I'VE just didn't play the
way we are able to and that's all there
was to 1t. OF course there was some
hard luck. but I am not doing any hol-
lering about that. Hard luck Ia part Of
the game n every team must have its
time at 1t. l am perfectly satisned with
The team as 1t stands now and do not
expect to make any changes other than
the cut down as the rules require.
Il do not know when we will let a
couple OF men go and l can't see who,
ought to be dropped. Every man is
doing so we'll that it's hard to swing
the axe. Good work. however, Is far
better than promises. New Workers
want to see us win, and that's what we
are going to do. Wait and see"
The fans began to arrive early. An
hour before game time the 25-cent stand
had the IS. r. o." sign out. and the
b;eaehers were getting comfortably
nllet at the same time.
