VIII schipke be back in the Western
league this year. or the Minneapolis team
owned by the Cantillons. II is believed
Joe may ship him to Mike.
This IL the question that arises in the
minds OF the fans when they read OF the
transfer OF Third Basemsn Conroy from the
H%ighlanders to Washington, where Skipper
Bill has been holding down third base for
a couple OF years.
The transfer also means thai Jimmy Aus
tin will have one man off the number with
whom to contest for the position Of third
on the New York Americans. With Conroy
out OF the. road the two leaders for that
place are Austin and Ward, the crack who
was with the outlaws last year.
Austin has had the nerve to stand out on
stalings for a good contract and 1t begins
to look as though he would set his price.
According 10 the club house rumors Austin
has sent back two contracts which Manager
stallings has sent him and finally got a
long letter which breathed Of peace and the
hops that they, could come TO terms. With
Conroy gone Il looks like Stallings intended
TO come across with Austin's demands,
which probably we're not very heavy. but
Just what a crack from the leading minor
league would expect to get from a major
team with which he expected TO make good.

Victory for Russell Springs.

Russell Springs crossed bats with
Ozark last Saturday Sept 25, and beat
them to the tune of 10 to 3.
Some of the Ozark boys treated the
Russell Springs boys with respect,
but we are sorry to say that our boys
did not receive the treatment that was
due them.
+ The twirler, Harlan Richards, did
fine work in the box by putting down
ten of Adair County's best batters. He
was well backed by Rosenfeld our
catcher.
Il. Willard Young has not yet caught
onto the trick worked on him by Isbell
and Resented, just ask Tom Holiday.
Only one ball was knocked to the
field which was we'll handled by Wilson.
A fair example of Russell Rprings
batting was done by Wilson and
Aaron, who made more than all the
Ozark boys to gether.
Isbel's work on first was a great
feature of the game
Our third baseman Dunbar, made
the longest hit made and had great
effect.
The Ozark twirler, Tom Holiday,
did exciting work on the slab, allowing
Russell Springs ten runs and fifteen
hits.
Bert Epperson, the professional I'm
pire, did great work after the game
was over.
We invite Ozark to our ball ground
in the future and promise to show them
an honest game. A Player.
