HARRIS LOOKS GOOD.

The Jefferson City team failed to
show up at Association park yester-
day afternoon, and in order not to
disappoint the large number of fans
who were there. a game was played
between the Regulars and Yannigans.
Jefferson City must have contracted
an unusually severe case Of trapped
pedal extremities. for not a word has
been heard from them. and Il IS gen.
orally supposed that the team is still
in the muddy Missouri capital city.
But there was a good game Just
the same. The contest was not
enough one sided to be uninteresting-
The Yannigans were composed Of six
pitchers and of course the work was
a little ragged in places. This is not
the team which viii perform Sunday
as Jay Andrews Renegades. Old Jay
himself will be with the Renegades
Sunday and the lineup will be shifted
around more effectively. Olson will
also be with the Renegades.
The feature of the game was the
pitching OF Young Harris. This
youthful prodigy comes up to the ad-
vance notices. Only four hits were
poled from him in seven innings.
and also has a few curves. He shows
good headwork. and his delivery is
graceful. He will be kept here for
some time after the season starts at
least, so that he can be wen looked
over. It is thought now that he Is
a gem in the rough.
The only run which the
Yannigans poled was IN the SECOND
inning when with two down Hendrix
hit to right field for two bases and
scored on Burnum's single.
The Regular team looked pretty
good. DR.. Jay was on third and had
more than the usual amount OF
ginger. He is certainly card and Is
ready to set the Western league fans
a-going any time. Long and WooleJ
better in left than he has In any OF
the outfield positions. In the fifth in
ming with two men on bases and only
one out Long helped Harris out OF
hole by making one hand 9umpint
catch on Cullen. and completing
double at second base.
KfllinRsworth worked for thu
Yannigans and was rather easy foi
the Regulars, nine hits being the al
lotment for seven innings.
The Regulars started proceeding
in the first inning. Long singled and
scored on hits by Geier and Cooley
In the second inning Long reached
first on an error with two out an(
scored on Wooley's triple. Geie
singled scoring Wooley. In the sixth
the Regulars earned three runs
Olson was safe on an error by Slap
nicka, and Kerns got life on Nc
Manus's error. Harris walked. Loni
singled and Olson scored. A momen
later Kerns was caught mapping of
of third. Wooley hit into fielder
choice and the bases were file
again as slow one prevented an out
Another error on the Yannigan in
field allowed Harris and Long t
score.

tumbling during the game.
