e. we Tigers, the crowd followed
the ,fAjuns out to Recreation park
again yesterday and sat around,
feeling blue and angry about the
disgraceful way the Bengals treat
ed the Indians. The latter allowed
the Tigers to run up IL hits, 2 OF
them home runs, 1 3-baggers and 2
2-baggers. Klinhammer, for Spo-
kane, threw balls at the opposing
batsmen. who found him the easiest
proposition they ever stacked up
against.
Umpire George Hewlett is rank
failure. He's afraid of Mike Lynch,
principally Anyone who would be
afraid of that big lemon ought to
be sent to bed without supper But
you have to give it to him, for he
gets there with his team. He's
the scrappy sort of captain manager
who should be at the head of the
AS cETAOIN UN ETAOIN UNN
Spokane team
AS q captain Swindells is a dead
one.
If the Tigers get a shade the
worst of a decision, who is it wants
to kill the umpire? Lynch!
If the fans get too noisy around
first base who wants to tear down
the bleachers? Lynch!
OF course such ungentlemanly
conduct as he exhibits at times is a
bad thing for the game, in a way,
but then we're all willing to sacri-
flee little polish for winning
team. AS usual the scrappy team
is getting to the front, and il
Scrappy Lynch puts the Tigers
ahead the town of Tacoma won't
hold him.
Members of the Spokane team
are about as thoroughly disorgan-
lied bunch as can be found. Swim
dells hasn't the nerve to whip them
into line, but allows i'll feeling,
envy and general dissatisfaction to
prevail He isn't the man to domin-
ate the others because practically
every other man on the team is
better fitted for the job of captain,
and realizes 1t.
Personally Swindells Is the best
fellow in the world. and when 1t
comes to work behind the bat he's
one of the best in the league.
