While the Edgerton band can prob
ably beat the fire department boys in
making big noise, they appear some
what at disadvantage in a ball game,
as was shown in the first of series of
games at the Driving Park Friday after
noon The score though shows that they
were on the diamond for just few this
time and when official scoreman Jenson
balanced his books they showed thir-
teen to seven in favor of the fire.ighters.
The next game of the series between
the Firemen and Band will take place at
the Driving Park Friday, July "a. The
game will be called at 800 o'clock. It's
the other fellows turn to win this time
and he is going to rend his uniform if
need be to do it. That's what Captain
Stewart says and in order to do it diet
and practice is the regular order issued
to the nine eager Willies. Take right
fielder Pelton for instance, he needs more
diet and more practice in order to over
come one or two minor faults and make
star player. The man next to him,
center fielder Buchanan, plays like sixty
but he too will stand daily work out
and trimming up il he wishes to play
like he plays the cornet Drummer
Skinner will be In line for position
with the Sluggers by the time the series
is finished. Maves, Burdick, Filing
son, the two Stewards and Electricity
<Dickerson are receiving few finishing
touches and in our mind we think the
band aggregation will be victors in the
next game. Captain Artemus Warner
thinks he, too, has few milk-fed ones
and is calling special sessions in order to
get his thumb on the weak spots. Circus
Soily Pringle for instance, Artist Swift,
Tooth Doctor Holton and handsome
Henry Schmeling are in line for few
extra prescriptions of base ball dope.
Smith, Harvey and Bardeen are also on
Captain Warmers dope sheet for little
side-stepping in order to put the iremen
in shape to hold their vantage ground.
With all these preparations the next
game may be listed as swift one and
will be as much OF crowd getter as
piece of sticky paper in fly time. Go you
and see it.
