going to make a strong bid for the West
ern association pennant this year is rap
/ idly rounding into form. The club is
working out daily at League park and
morning and afternoon the residents
around that vicinity hear the thud of
the swatted bali and the yells of Hurl-
burts boys as they scoop in the hot
ones Saturday the St. Joseph team
! win take on the fast semiprofessional
GoetZ Brewing team of this city and
the Saints are already talking about
what they are going to do to the Brew
/ ers- The Goetz team members are con
/ fident. however, and say that they will
] be there with the goods, so that hot
game may be expected. On Sunday the
Saints will take on the Stock Exchange
team of Kansas City.
They are al noticing Topeka's early
work this year. From the st. Joe News
Press. OF all the Western Association
clubs Topeka has made the best show
ing in the exhibition series. Webb City
has played only medium ball. while
/ Springfield has done well in the series
against Fort Smith.
A boy by the name of Pennington
who is managing Leavenworth this
year. and who played here with st. Paul
and was largely responsible for the de-
feat which the northerners suffered at
/ the hands of the White Sox breaks
! loose in this very astute piece of critic
ism in the LeavenwOrth Times on the.
/ Topeka team: Topeka hasn't got
much to go on In the inf1eld Shortstop
Reagan is fast man. but he is imma-
ture runs over his balls, throws wild
4 and is unsteady. Graves looks best Of
all their bunch to me. They say he is
clever ball plaXsr and he looks like it.
I Their pitching staff looked weak with
/ the exception of Forester. They say
! the young fellow didn't do much good
/ last year, but he looked all right to me"
But that was not all that Pennington
had to say HIS opinion on Hurlburt'S
St. Joe bunch might just as well be also
/ given: That St. Joseph bunch is going
/ to be one, two or three. Hurlburt is
/ certainly getting a lot Of good men to-
/ gether. and shortie thinks there
viii be nothing to it except st.
/ Joe and Leavenworth. He calls me a
/ lucky stiff and the like, because I've
/ been able to get hold of some of the men
/ he was breaking his neck over. But
I Hurlburt has a lot of good men and
I he'll be in the race to win. He'd like
/ awfully we'll to get this man Sits, but
I am going to hang on to him. Sits play
/ ed in the New York state league a cou-
! pie Of seasons ago. His batting was
/ better than 300 and he is q cracking
/ good man. Bill Kemmer has signed
up for first base with Hurlburt He will
/ help the infeld very considerably
