NOTES OF THE GAME.

Morrison has obtained a haircut.
Some say he had 1t done at Buckhan-
non. while others claim Reese cut IL
Look for yourself and decide where
you think he had 1t cut.
AT an informal meeting OF the base
bali players held Sunday evening al
the st. Charles hotel, It was decided
by close vote that Powell would he
nicknamed Bugs However, twelve
players voted that it should be
Lizzie"
Fred Dawson has a highly decorat-
ed eye which he received at Buck
harmon. No, not in fight. A
foul tip struck him when at bat with
the result that it caromed on his
left eye and has left remembrance
there in the form of several colored
marks.
Ginger" Now muffed hard
chance in the first inning which re.
suited in a score. Has Ginger" been
walking too much SO that he is oyer
trainedg "lis question hard to
solve.
Bugs" Powell surely had the fans
after him but before the game was
over he was their favorite. The lad
is a brother of Bill Powell, who play
ed with Fairmont and Greensburg in
the West Penn last year.
Steele, who is trying out as a
catcher, played basketball with the
Homestead team of the Central league
last pInter.
Miller was canned recently by the
North Pole Wonders, but 1t is seen
that he brought all his baseball junk
along with him to our regions, as he
exhibited his seal skin fur lined coat
to the fans at Sundays game. The
patrons of the game in this city hope
that Miller viii soon become used to
the climate heresas they say st looks
like Miller would smother with that
coat on in this weather."
Now that several Of ttl candidates
for the local team have secured their
walking papers the candidates that
are left Will take up team work and
signals and the chances are that next
Sunday will see the locals working
much better than the Sunday just
past,
The official scorer lost a camera
yesterday at League park and this
morning is wondering, where, o,
where, could 1T be at present Any
one finding same or knowing where
abouts of same, please communicate
the fact to Louis A. Carr and it will
be greatly appreciated.

the front is John Eagle, who has act
ed as backstop for various amateur
organizations in this city and who for
the past few days has been on the
bench for the San Francisco team of
the Pacific Coast league and will make
good in all respects if given chance.
Eagle is a graduate of the CASTELAR,
school and received his baseball
coaching from Bill Mcclellan, formerly
with the Violet Street Playground
club and now instructor in baseball
and football at the University of Bos-
ton. This is not the first time that
Eagle has broken into professional
ranks. A few months ago Eagle went
back East to catch in the Three-I
league, but on account of the climate
was compelled to return to Southern
California, the land Of sunshine and
orange blossoms. While not serving
on the extra list of the San Francisco
team, Eagle goes behind the bat for
the Edison club in the California win
ter ranks.
AS soon as the Pacific coast season
is over, the Seals will ''hike" to their
winter homes. 1t has been a long
drawn out battle and the players will
welcome the finish. Captain Mohler
will stick around Los Angeles, where
his family resides Mohler married
Los Angeles girl and has considerable
