The White Sox without their white
socks made decided hit on Aala park
yesterday afternoon by taking the game
in their first appearance this season
from the Aalas. The Aalas were one
W. shead at the opening of the ninth in
aing and it looked bad for the new
comers but Sam Hop, who did not play
but gave all his attention to coaching,
got off some kind of an "Abracada-
bra" yell and put the ginger into his
-eam so that they came up and swatted
out four runs.
Then did Sam perform many violent
gyrations meaning " Ha ha. !" He dane
ed on one foot and spread the other one
out to the air to dry, meanwhile let
ting forth a series of joyous yelps that
were echoed by the players in the sox-
less team.
In the second game the cleaning kids
again sank below the horizon, this time
at the hands of the Dragonlets who
had a not very hard time to win the
game. Josephine was doing the twirl-
ing for the losers and he was not in
very good form so that the Chi Bui
aggregation swatted him rather hard
and tailed seven bingles off him.
Better Ball Played.
The class of ball played was very
superior to that of the opening day
last Sunday. All the boys seemed to
have found themselves and each other |
and there was much better team work |
all round. There was a very large crowd !
present and keen interest was shown /
by the amount of roofing that went on. |
George Clark from Eva who pitched |
for the soxless kids provided the fea-
ture of the afternoon by magnificent |
piece of cool -headedness in the sixth in
ming when there were no men down and
both second and third occupied. He /
never got ratified for second but !
promptly famed two men and the third |
grounded to first and was easily put
out by Manuel Correa.
viii Prestidge was wandering round
the field surrounded by a mist of tears
and dampness. When carefully ap-
preached on the subject and asked what
the pilikia was he said, every time a
fellow goes into bat, he swats ball
into the river and now we have nine
teen wet balls and not a single dry
one" Whereupon he pulled out a
fourteenth clean handkerchief and care
fully wiped his streaming eyes.
A. K. Nearly Telescoped.
A. K. Vierra had his life saved dur
ing the second game by the interven
tion of several policemen. A huge Ha-
waiian wished to get a closer view of
the game and so wandered from the
lines laid down for the limits to which
spectators may 90 and placed himself
uncomfOrtably near third base. A. K.
adjusted his official mantle of dignity
aud descended majestically from the
bandstand He waved his cane of of
fee and demanded that the titan re-
cede. But the titan would not recede
worth a cent He smiled down on the
and told him in a mild voice
to mind his own business or he would
be collapsed.
But the one and only A. K. is man
of courage and nerve and he placed his
official hand on the intruder's arm and
bade him retreat. "Henee, hence enOr-
nous mass of unweleome intrusion,
said he. cor shall feel constrained to
personally propel thee towards yonder
linelaid limits ''Is that sO?' was
the calm response. ''Well, we III see
about that" and the brawny giant
placed his hand on A. Ks head and
proceeded to reduce his heights as one
would close up a eoneertina. About
the time that the entire Vierra height
was reduced to three feet, two police
men intervened and the secretary was
readiusted to his usual stature
rope and tackle.
The First Game.
The game opened with rafting good :
Yin and 90. The sOxless ones went IN

feed and Correa came in. Mack was ]
