count on two extra session events here
next week"
Kaufman and Boles. once prize bat
terry of the Cooleysox, worked for st.
Joseph in the first game of the double
with Lincoln and lost to when the
Antelopes punched things in the ninth.
Lincoln Star: Walter Boles put
some pepper in that st. Joseph crowd.
Two hits, one for three bases, five put
outs and one assist fell to the gritty
utility player. This department is glad
to see Boles in town where he will
have chance. He is one of the best
BAH players and finest gentlemen in the
league today.
Denver Times: Kid Harris, Den
ver's new twirler recently bought from
Topeka,- was the real hero of the first
game, saving it after Schneider vir-
tually lost it. The big southpaw start
ed on the firing line pitted against
Marty O'Toole, considered the Pack
ers' best twirler. With Denver in the
lead by four runs, the Packers Jumped
onto Schneider and in the fifth inning
tied the score. 1t was then that Hem
bricks sent Harris into the box. The
youngster accredited himself we'll, al
lowing but one run.
st. Joseph News-Press: SulIy's
bunch is just as lively as ever and we
don't wonder that they are holding
down one of the high places. 1t was
just like taking sweets from an infant
Tor them Wednesday, but sure enough,
the Drummers turned their usual
trick, making enough hits and mark
ers to win an ordinary game. Hanafin,
in spite of the fact that he got away
unlucky, looks good to u.s. He sure is
an athlete, has good action in the box
plenty of smoke and sharp benders

that he knew the game, too, in field
ing his position. Don't mind that first
appearance, Hanifan, were for you.
Denver Post: In speaking of the
series (Denver-Sioux City, Manager
Jack Hendricks said: "Of course. luck
Is going to be just as important fac
tor in the series as anything else. If
things break even for us l can't see
any good reason why we can't take at
least five out of the six games. If it
breaks wrong for US, then we will have
to fight for every inch of ground. I
realize that the Sioux City team is
strong organization, but also realize
that Sioux City at home and Sioux
City on the road are two different
teams. In that little pill box grounds
where the players have schooied them
selves to hit over that short right
field fence they are the hardest kind
of team to beat. On our grounds,
WneFe IL is almost impossible to knock
a ball over the fence, you'u find that
many of the hits that go safe in right
field in Sioux City will be easy outs
here.
81 think that our pitchers are all in
good shape and ready to take their
turn in the box. With Harris it gives
US six pitchers to use in the three
days. We are hitting as good as any
team and have two men on the team
that are right up on top-Cranston
and Beale-with others close to them.
think Cranston easily leads the
league with the stick. Sioux CITY. too.
has some good stickers Well, to tell
you candidly, think it will prove the
most exciting series of games we have
played this season. They at any rate.
mean more than any other series has
meant so far. Personally, am conf
dent as to the outcome and 1 also
know the players feel that they Will
put Sioux City out of the race in this
series. With that kind of spirit,
can't help but feel that we viii win"
