Gals, Who Play Like Kids IA
to z Was the Score

The widest, weirdest, wool.
lest, rottenest game of baseball
which was ever played in Beach
occurred at the park last Sunday
in the presence of the largest gall
lery Of fans ever assembled here
on any days other than a holiday.
And right here we want to re-
tract some of the things we said
last week-in particular a portion
of our remarks in which we said
that the Dickie birds would be
hown how the national game
should be played. We take that
back absolutely and in toto.
The Beach team couldn't play
ball a lick. No one in particular
was to blame. either that's the
funny part Of it. Armontrout was
in the box for the home team and
he was wilder than hawk. The
other eight played ball with every
thing except their heads and hands.
1t was a good, consistent eS-
hibition of how not to play ball.
The Dickie birds played rings
around the home team and did
it easily, at least that is what the
score says ID to ..
The umpircs were very fair in
their decisions, but there were
several jangles and two fights.
That nice, isn't it? Just what
spectators pay to see mot.
Armontrout was batted out Of
the box some time along in the
shank Of the evening, and along
toward the tail end Of the game
the boys frightened up and put
their second run across. The
slaughter could have been stopped
early in the game, according to
I the ideas of several spectators.
but the management evidently
didn't think SO. and let the bloody
work go on.
they say that all ball players
have an off day once in while
but this was the first time we ever
saw all of them have their off day
on the same date.
And ten cents glass for water
was all they charged at the re-
freshment booth that was the las
