TRADES WEIGH IN THE DEAL
Riggert of the Lyons Team Hits 800,
While fortress, the Pitcher, Has
Won Two-Thirds of His
Games.

Pa Rourke completed negotiations Satur-
day for two players. with whom he expects

winning basis. He has bought an outfielder
and a pitcher and both are touted as being
the real goods.
The outflelder is Joe Riggert of the
Lyons team of the Kansas State league.
For him Rourke gives $500 cash and throws
in Harry WEIGH who will join the Lyons
team at Newton today, WEIGH still bellng.
to the Omaha team, the deal requiring that
he play with Lyons for the remainder of
the season.
Riggert is one of the stars of the Kansas
league and is hitting at the rate of $50 so
afr this season. He leads the league in
home-run hitting. 1y
Fentress is one of the leading pitchers of
the Kansas circuit and for him Rourko
payed $3.50. He has wont two-thirds of the
games he has pitched this season.
Pa Rourke is more than pleased with hi
new purchase, as he says that Fentress ha
more to his delivery than has Keeley, an
is much larger and stronger and shoul
make a strong showing in the Wester
league
The two new players Joined Pa Rour
at Hutchinson last night and accompanie
him to st. Joseph, where at least Rigger
will appear in the game today. WEIGH Joins
