George Simmons made 527 which is his
first ofrense this season; here's "hopin,"
George.
W. clifford had an idea that he could
make a strike by throwing his ball down
the gutter; he tried 1t three times then
gave it up.
J. schabach, one Of the Crescent Stars,
continues to reach the 500 mark.
Minquadale was certainly going some
that first game.
Hard luck Mack. but 497 is getting
pretty close, try again.
Midget Bradford, Columbia's anchor,
was away 10 the bad.
Although Il was his first time, George
led the league with 527.
Socks" Green is getting that habit Of
missing flock after flock.
Without knowing what he was doing,
the mighty blacksmith" made three
strikes in a row.
Ringler got back in the game and show
ed up pretty well.
Who viii win? Pretty hard to answer
this question at this time as It is a
toss up between Pastime. Columbia and
