the contestants but C. NJ. Keck, the
Colorado Midland passenger agent at
Glenwood has received many applica-

RAMEY DOES NOT
LOCATE THE COIN

Lloyd Ramey, the local southpaw,
has not accepted the offer at Ogden
there being "A hitch in the salary end.
The local youngster naturally wants
a salary and one which would Justify
him in making the trip before he will
accept the offer.
Ramey is a conner and the team
that will take him under contract to
remain long enough to develop will
secure a find. There is in him the
material fully the equal of Willet,
Tom Toner or Pratt but of course it
takes time to develop.
The first year in which Toner
pitched for the locals there were
times when it looked as though he
would be found for good but it was
these times which developed him into
the slabster which he now is.
Pratt was often hard hit, the first
year on the local team, and Roy
Willet got his the first year he played
on the western slope just as often as
either Pratt or Toner but now all
three of the twirlers are playing in
fast company and making good, too,
and the day will probably never come
when the Colorado independent ball
teams will get a chance TO enroll
them again in their midst.
