MANY HOME RUNS BY
ROCK ISLAND TEAM
Drove Ball Out for Four Sacks II
Times During Year-MeIOan
and Murphy Made Most.

The Islanders of 1903 nave lined ont
more home rams than any of the teams
representing this city for the last four
or five years. Fourteen is the number
registered and il is doubtful if any
other team in the league can top this
figure. Murphy and Mclean have
three drives apiece MurDhys were
all drives over the fence. two of them
being made in one game at Decatur
on the last trip south. Two of Ne
loans were inside the fence drives
which his speed on the bases turned
into homers. Lakaff has two home
runs to his credit, one of which was
the longest drive ever made in this
city. Berger put one over the fence
at Springfield, as did also NogCl and
Mcbride, all three of these being male
in two successive days. Berger also
made the circuit in this CITY in a game
against Peoria i'll July. although the
ball did not go over the fence. Kelley
was the first of the team to make Il
homer with a hit over the fence 1T
Bloomington on the first trip south.
Perhaps Hugh Jennings would open
his ewes if he knew that Hardin was
in the home run class also. for
Georges hit Oh May 30 was the first
home run o. the year on the home
grounds.

KNOWS THE GAME AND MEN

Now that the pennant is won, the
next thing to do is to prepare to win
it again. or. at any rate, to come so
close to carrying away the honors that
the team which beats the Islanders will
realize that it is in real race. The
best way to assure a fast winning
team for next year is to get Manager
Jacl. Tighe back on the job again. The
sentiment among the fans throughout
the city is all fer TiSlc
Tighe has a number of charaCtc ris-
ties which make him the right kind
of a man to manage a club. He has
the faculty for Developing players,
and then again he has the faculty If
finding good players when to the
casual observer. there is none in
sight. When Tiehe came TO take
charge of the team in 1897 his team
was the same one practically which
finished in fifth place the year before
Still he developed the material which
was given him and made a pennant
winning team of it.
Pulled Team Out of Hole.
Tighc left here at the end of the
season OF 1907 and the team known
as the champions dropped TO the bo--
tom of the list under other manage
meut in 1895 He returned. how
ever, towards the close OF the
season, and although it appeared that
the Islanders were horeIessly an
chCred at the bottom of the list, he
pulled them out in 4 few weeks and
made the leaders 90 some to beat
them. Up to the time Jack took
charge of the team in 1908, it had
never won Il whole series from any
team, but he soon braCed it up, and
before many days had passed, the
seemingly impossible had been ac-
omp!iShed.
This year Jack returned again and
took charge of the team al the open
ing of the season and although it
was in many respects the same aggrn-
cation which finished seventh last wear
he made pennant winner out of it
again. What the Islanders need next
year is man who can take charge

order To fiji the hole on first left by
Stark, Harry Swacina was added to
the roll of the club during the mid
die of the season. This was the only
change in the personnel Of the club
throughout the season. The fact that
Wise was recalled from Ottumwa TO
play second base while Otto Vogel
was out of the game, does not mean
that a change took place on the
team. Wise was an Islander all the
time and he simply filed in while
regular man was out of the lineup.
shows TIGhe'S Judgment.
The fact that the team went
through the season without changes.
indicates the rare judgment which
Manager Tighe exhibited i'm choos-
ing his players. While other mana
gers spent the first few months OF
the season filling out weak spots in
their teams which were discovered
after the season opened, Tighe was
winning game after game with the
team which he started with and the
result was that when the rest of the
teams were recruited up to their
own satisfaction, the Islanders had
taken a lead which could not be oV-
ercomc. Jacks discenmcnt in &c
lccting players is one of his most
valuable assets as a manager.

A MONKEYS BRAIN CAPACITY

A story is told of a chimpanzee that
was given to frequent fits of temper.
But instead of whipping him for it,
ball with a small hole in one side.
Filling the ball with water and spurt-
ing it into his face always had good
effect on him. He disliked having this
done, and the instant he saw the ball
he became quiet and docile. At first
he was greatly puzzled. He often
played with the ball and had never
found any water about 1t. One day,
to amuse him, 1 spurted the water at
a small monkey in a cage in front or
me. This diverted the ape, and he
kept trying to get me to squirt more
water on it, but 1 turned the stream
away, and for a while continued to
amuse him, until he finally caught the
idea of pressing the ball. l gave it
to him, but he was very awkward III
using it. AS soon as he learned how
to squeeze it he turned it upon the
monkey, and 1 had to interfere. He
soon learned both to fill and to squeeze
the ball without difficulty. He was
careful to keep the hole turned away
from himself, but he cared very lit
tie for the welfare of others, When
permitted he never failed to give the
little monkey a squirt, and never tired
of doing the trick.
To turn it upon a dog was equally
funny to him, and the twitch of his
risibles plainly told what passion was
ruling his mind.-Weekly Telegraph.

ship of 260 women of education and
refinement, this club has gained a well
merited standing among the Southern
California Woman's clubs for doing
what it attempts to do thoroughly and
we'll.
The several departments embraced
in the quarterly programs give ample
opportunity for each member to find
expression in the particular line of
study which appeals to her taste.
Therefore it is that sharp but friendly
rivalry is manifested between the va
rious heads of the several departments
to the end that the best may always
obtain.
The future of the club is bright with
promise of things to be achieved. 1t
is the hope of the management this
year that every woman in Hollywood
and in the valley, for that matter, will
connect herself with the club, there
by deriving a benefit personally and
lending her influence directly toward
building up a strong, progressive and
influential body whose work shall be
a pleasure to it's members and a help
to the community at large.
