tice work this season. Nothing has
passed him at short. He ought to
make good in today's game with Rah-

championship of high school baseball
teams.
Joe Hornsby, our old standby, is

third base. He gets them all, wheth-
er high or low and when he is at the
Dat we always look for a safe hit.
Ellie has been batting very heavily
this season, and he has also been
playing fast i'm the field. He ought

excellent catching behind the bat this
season and has throwing to the bases
down pat. He is good at the bat.
Will Hornsby is going to do our
slab work this season. He has a
swift and curved ball and he is bat
ting like a Trojan. Hornsby @and
Hanson will be the battery for today's
game if the weather and condition
of the diamond permits.
st. John, ellis and Mulchahey are
about evenly matched for substitutes.
They are heavy batters.
Mr.. Hitzelberg, the coach, has been
