WHERE THEY PLAY TOMORROW:
Kansas State League.
Hutchinson at Strono City.
Great Bend at Wellington.
Newton at Mcpherson.
Arkansas City at Lyons
Central Kansas League.
Salina at Junction City.
Ellsworth at Abilene.
Beloit at Manhattan.
Minneapolis at Clay Center.
Topeka has a scout working in the
Central Kansas league, but the players
won't know that they are being
watched. The scout was in Junction
City yesterday and got good look at
one of the Ellsworth players.
Boss Quigley at Salina is playing
second base since Horrill was left out.
Ellsworth is nearly three hundred
points to the good in the race in the
Central Kansas league, while Abilene
has had no opposition for last place
this far.
Junction City is making hard uphill
fight in the Central Kansas and is
climbing towards the top. Junktowl
made a mistake when Armstrong was
let out for he undoubtedly possesses
more brains than any one player in the
c. K. circuit.
Hutchinson has passed Lyons in the
race in the Kansas State league and is
crowding "cPherson for first place.
O'Nein, Beloit's new pitcher, is get
ting away good. Ebright has q good
team and will give them all battle
for the first place honors before the
season is over.
Bill Howey just simply seems unable
20 win a 1traif aI, nI SaI,r Of
Hutchinson Monday but his team
mates threw away the game
Abilene seems to have found one good
pitcher in Williams who won from Sa-
lima Monday by striking out sixteen
men, allowing only three hits.
The Hutchinson fans evidently do not
like Green, the Great Bend pitcher.
Here is what the Gazette says of him.
With no intention to gloat over yester-
days victory, one general satisfaction
can be found in the results. This is the
sting that it gives Green. Some way
and for reasons unknown Green has ,
very, very big case Of the swelled pate.
No deed has ever been recorded where
Green's name will go down in history
as hero. yet he has the idea that the
whole world admires him. He Is far
from being a good pitcher, although he
has the faculty Of getting away lucky.
commence III DILL prayers Is d SOOu
thing, but the kind that Green has IS
sometimes known to be disastrous. No
one had pity for Green yesterday, and
the fans took turns in roasting him.
Horack of the Great Bend team is
said to be shumping, while Honey and
Killilay are doing most of the work.
The Great Pend team which has hit
well all season is falling off. During
the Hutchinson series last week, 1t Is
said that but two of the PLAYERS on the
team hit over 200.
Salina journal: Lefty Williford,
the famous left hand twirler, is doing
stunts in the cooler today. Lefty i'm
bibed vigorously in an effort to dispel
the gloc-, that enyeloped him when
Manager Quigley suspended and fined
him. Instead of dispelling the gloom it
made it thicker. Officer Tullis peered
through the gloom enough to espy Will
liford in the center and stirred him to
the cooler. Williford was wild and
without control, but he crossed thu
door plate to the cooler IN good shape
and the cell door locked to prevent him
striking out. The police say this is
the second time they have found Lefty
drunk and warned him before.
