old speed, and few misplays threw
them off their games. or course the
critics figured. as was natural. that
Frank Chance had fine old bunch of
-beens on his hands and that the
once great baseball machine had gone
to pieces. Few clubs have gone along
winning pennants and worlds cham
pionships without needing complete re-
organization within five years or less
Of their first success. 1t was only rea-
sOnabe to believe that the Cubs had
had their day and that Chance would
have to dig up new and young mate
rial.
The clubs with younger talent beat
the Cubs earlier in the season. Ii
surely looked as though Chicago would
have to be satisfied with third place
at best. Things have changed whole
lot since then.
The kids have shot their bolts. But
the Cubs are travelling fast and play
ing a game that is seldom equaled in
the National league. They are the
class, and it looks as II nothing will
stop them from walking home with
the flag. just as they did in 1906. 1907
and 1908.
The club is batting, fielding and run
ming the bases better than ever, and
apparently there is not weak spot
on the team. Schultz, Hoffman and
Sheckard in the outfield are gObbling
up everything sent out to their gar
dens. The catching department is
stronger than ever King has about
reached his old form. and Archer Is
almost his equal. The pitching staff
is the largest and strongest in the Ma.
tional league. and it's members are in
rare form.
That wonderful stone wall intield-
Chance. Evers. Tinker and Steinfeldt-
Is corker. That phrase thinker
to Evers. to Chance" made famous by
the baseball critics, will always be re.
membered by the fans. There proba.
bly, will never be more famous in
field than this one. 1t Is considered
the Drainiest that ever appeared on the
diamond.
The Cubs are right now playing as
| fast game as when they were win
ming worlds championships. They're
the class. and. barring an awful run
Of hard luck. they'll just about walk
| hope with that old flag.

PLAYED a | to o Game.

Just as the Norfolk baseball team
had promised, they scalped the Chero-
kee Indian baseball team on the driv-
ing park diamond Sunday afternoon
by score of l to 0. Their scalping
was the work of an hours professional
ball playing and the Indians came in
every inning threatening to wrest the
honors away from the determined Nor
folkans.
Everybody played firat-class ball.
Both pitchers were in excellent trim
and displayed some marvellous points
in the ball playing keeping the fans in
tense excitement all through the
game.
1t was Butler whose little hit in the
game for Norfolk. The Indians had
retired without a score when Brueg-
geman stepped up to the platter and
struck out. Krahn's fly was gobbled
| up by Kopln and the inning looked
like the rest for Zeros. But Miller, the
Norfolk broncho buster and railroad
man, put out a hot grounder which
Chateau fumbled Miller reached
first and the fans yelled. Chateau
then threw wild to first and Miller
landed on second base, making third
on the passed ball thrown to Butler
who singled to rightfield bringing Mil
Ter home. Clark was up and his
grounder to second was instantly sent
to first where he was put out, No
more scores were available on either
side.
The Indians had men on third both
in the second and third innings but
the pitching of Rusk held them back
Krahn played a star game on short
stop and Butler took all chances or
