but he secured a job carrying water
and got to see at close range the fine
points of playing.
One of his strongest points is his

A good deal of interest is being
taken among the ball players in the
game Sunday afternoon between the
Regulars and the YanniganS. Jack
Halla, who is to captain the Yanni-

confidently says that he expects to

the Yannigans and will be able to cut
down the batters of the regular team

years ago in the old Missouri Valley

some time but finally came to terms
and If his salary arm is in the same
shape that it was when he was in this
