Texas leaguers, where they couldn't be
reached with a ten-foot pole.

Kneaves, q shortstop from Hutchinson, has

With Gonding behind the bat, there were
fewer attempts to steal second. Middleton
tried 1t but he couldn't beat Gondlng' 5
throw.
Schoonover made his initial appearance.
He hasn't quite his gait yet but he doesn't
look half bad. And then again, he's from
Kansas.
Pitcher Aitchson can do more than pitch.
