I
way into September.
Parkview Is going 10 be hard team
to defeat for the championship Of the
Suburban League this season. although
Brightwood is at present perched on the
TOP OF the heap. The BrigntWoOd boys
have been lucky. and with weak batting
team have done very well. but Parkview
Is composed largely Of sluggers and has
the best outfleld IN the league. Bright
wood two twirIers. SeitZ and Robinson,
have been pitching well 10 date, although
neither OF them has done anything Won
derfuL A team that is bound 10 better
its standing is the Reed Athletic Club. as
the Reed boys have materially strength
sned their team both in the field and at
the bat
Bernie Gallagher made a neat one-hand
catch back Of his position at third base
Monday. when Parkview was playing Ia
koula. Gallagher has been very unfortu-
nate this year. and at the present time Is
playing on several teams but doesn't
seem 10 have HIS heart In the work II
he had allowed those who had the good
Ct his baseball career at heart 20 tell
him a thing OF two years ago, he would
now probably be with a professional
team. Gallagher started 10 pitch for the
ST Martins team. in the Marquette
League. five years ago. when the club
was in the hands OF the Rev. Eugene
Hannah, rector OF St Martins Church,
and his work that year was OF the best.
Later. receiving good offers from man
ayers Of independent teams. Gallagher
left ST. Martins and played with nearly
every team about the city. His work was
hrst-class, and the big fellow had lots OF
speed and a deadly drop ball.
IN 1897 Gallagher. il IS understood. was
offered a scholarship at local uniyer-
sity by q friend. but he refused 10 accept
this good offer Had he gone TO college
he would undoubtedly 5ave shown as a
star As IL is. Gallagher Is a wonderful
pitcher. having played in two post-season
championships and several winners about
town bun he realizes now the opportu-
niJy he passed Up.
jim Sheaner, yhO plays third base for
Hamline. has been out roofing hard for
Bethany lately. His brother Ray plays
second for the Baptists. and il may be
q case Of brotherly love. or II may be
his way OF expressing desire for a
berth on the Bethany team Ray and
jim are both good players. and the club
is fortunate that has the services Of
either.
Seehorn. OF Ninth. pitched four in
nings against Langdon and did not allow
a hit recently. but was released by the
Ninth streets aggregation and joined the
Bethany team. lie was not given try
out with the Bloomingdale churchmen.
and is now with St Paurs. which club is
glad enough 10 have him IN the lineup.
SeehOrn has shown ability. but has been
particularly unfortunate in getting on
strong teams where his services were not
appreciated. With ST. Paurs he should
be given a further chance 70 demonstrate
what ne has up his sleeve.
Only three games running into nine
innings have been pulled of In the Sun
day School League this season. and Lang
don has figured in all three II is a Pc
cullar fact that the tail-eld team should
figure in all the fast games
Ninth leads all the teams in the Sun
day School circuit in the number Of runs
scored against opponents 10 date. the
Northeast lads having made eighty-four.
Hamline. which is the second team IN
running up a large score, has made sew
enty tallies, while Bethany and Peck
each have sixty-One 10 their credit. and
Langdon and St. Paurs twenty-five and
fifty-six. respectively.
There were three games played in the
Suburban League on Decoration Day.
each team playing once. This arrange
ment viii be carried out again on the
FOuth Of July The Suburban League is
doing well TO give the fans all the base
ball they want on holidays. when most
OF them don't have 10 work. and are
sure 10 look about for recreation.
Ferguson Fague Is putting up a star
