KNOWS WEBSTER
Manager Shannon of 0ttumwa
Congratulates Tighe on
Getting Pitcher.
TWO PLAYED TOGETHER
Says TwirIer Can Stand Lots of Work
And Always Deliver the Real
Article.

Manager Jack Tighe has received
letter from Hugh Shannon, this years
manager of the Ottumwa club in the
Central association, and last year man.
lager of Wilmington in the Eastern Car
DINA association. Among other things
Shannon extended hearty congratula-
lions to Jack ON account of his having
secured Webster, the pitcher whom
Rock Island bought from Wilmington.
IShannons was Webster's manager last
year, and he understands his value as
twirler He says Webster is big
man and capable of being worked hard
and at the same time is able to deliver
the goods day after day without fall
ling down. While Jack was already
lpretty well satisfied that Webster is
| the real thing, with this assurance
from Shannon he is better satisfied
THAN ever.
He's Ours, Ali Right.
Some of the papers throughout the
circuit have been commenting on the
fact that Outfielder Mclean, whom
Rock Island has reported as purchased
from st. Paul, is going to accompany
the st. Paul team on its trip south in
the early part of April. The impress
sion is given that Mclean is still the
property of ST. Paul and that the local
club may not get him. This is not the
case, however. as Mclean has been
purchased outright. He still looks
good to st. Paul, however, and that
lclub has asked leave for him to ac.
company the team on it's trip south in
order that he may be given thor.
ough tryout. In case he looks like too
fast man to be allowed to let go, ST
Paul will attempt to buy him back
but they will have to pay just what the
local association asks for him in that
lease.

in full force and the competition in
yelling between the high school and
Augustana rooters held the crowd in
intense interest at all times. The
game was close and exciting during
the first half, the score ending 10 to

the second half the team work of the

Glenn Liebhardt the former Rock

lates an experience he had in breaking
into baseball as an outfielder. 1t was
at Denver and he says he was not used
to the high sky. The first ball batted
out to him came down where he
thought it would, all right, but it came
sooner than it had been expected, and
the result was it hit him in the eyes.
He has not since played the outfield
