when thet can get two frbm the
Kicking Kids. Their chances don't
look SO slim after all
The Alice Men seem to have re-
covered from their slight indisposure.
At least 1t may be taken that they
have from the way they are going af-
ter the Nut Students.
Just what the idea in offering TO
lend Larsen and Wilder to the Hens
for the remainder of the season is,
Is not fully known by the fans here
1t Is understood, though that they

Of the best pitchers in the league.
Ii Captain Roland cannot get team
work out OF his men the captaincy
ought to be given to some one who

bur youngster, and 1t is to be hoped
that he will fulfill his promise to
come here.
Lee Lemon, the catcher, will join
the Mud wallpapers the latter part d
this week or the first of next, accord
ing to how well healed his finger Is
1t VIII be great relief TO know
that he is in the game and that there
will be head and good catcher
behind the bat,
