The next game for the White Sox in

sourians never had a chance to score
on the lankY Kansas twirler, for there
was nothing during the game that

up got hits, but he pulled out of the
hole without allowing a score. In the
third, the Tigers began to throw the
ball away and without getting a hit the
Jayhawkers scored one run. In the
fourth, on two hits and three errors by
the Tigers, the Kansans sent in three
runs. This inning sent Edwards to
the bench and Capp took his place. An
error and a hit in the fifth brought in
the last run for Kansas. In the last
four innings only twelve men faced

Here is the lineup of the Springfield
team for the season as far as is known
at the present time. Although there
are some good looking men on the team
from the standpoint of ball playing
the team as a whole has too many I'M
known quantities and lacks class which
is required to go the pace set by the
stronger team of the league. The re-
deeming feature is the fast outfeld.
Here it is:
Catcher-Cawfield.
Pitchers-Olmstead, Beltz, Uhren,
King.
First base-Cuthbert
Second base-Smith.
Shortstops- Kercher
Third base-Swift
Outheld-Murray, Hunt and Persch.
While of but little Importance. it
might be stated that the Springfield
player who secured a home run here
two years ago by the ball bounding over
the fence was not Hunt, the outfielder
but Hood, a utility man who played on
several teams that season. Hunt was
said to have been the man in a Topeka
paper. Hunt is playing center field this
season for Springfield.
The American Association opens today
with Kansas City II Louisville. Dick
Cooley will be found in center field, his
old position when the game starts this
afternoon. Dick may play first later on
but it is expected that he will play in
the outfield as he has a good first base
man.

With Leavenworth, Webb City,

The Leavenworth team had a chance
last Sunday to see their new Western
Association team in action for the first
time. The showing made by the team
was not altogether pleasing to the fans
sters, all of whom show a little promise
at least, but he has no old heads on his
team to keep them from going up in
the air at critical times. Manager Ray
however, is greatly, handicapped by
having never witnessed a game in the
Western Association and thus finding
that this circuit plays about as fast a
game as any class c league in the
country.
