manifested early last week when it

him on getting on the salaried list,
while Renville was congratulated
on getting him. His brother, Har-
ry Thompson, who has no superior

The kids came over from Wabas-
so last Wednesday morning and
pulled off a game of ball with the

too swift for them, SHINING the ]

seven innings. The latter came to

tain just like the Renville team. The =
pitchers on both sides wore the 4
rubber protectors on their arms
ust like Walter Francois. The :
players were as familiar with the
,erms of ''puds' and 'sfinger-mitt !
IS are the league giants, while !

vas immense. Young America is
going some.
