TT was the first day of the term.
Schoolmaster Ed. Barrow had eight
= pupils lined up n sprung the first
question. What are the essential ad-
juncts of a winning team asked the
schoolmaster. Jawn Camel was the
first to raise his hand.
"A combination that is equally bal
anced in all departments, possesses
speed N the bases, ability to hit in the
pinehes and a pitching staff>that can
prevent the enemy from doing the
same"
Very good" quoth Ed, Go to the
head of the class"
Camel vent to the head of his class
and has been there ever since, because
he has applied those principles. In a
few days the Eastern League season
will be two months id. The Hustlers
have a lead of % points. better one than
the Tigers had this time last year, and
it looks as though "Jawn'' Camel has
again outdistanced his competitors in
furnishing the Rochester fans with the
championship article.
With the various series which wind
up today every team in the league has
visited every town in the league. and
another invasion off the lower end of
the circuit by northern clubs begins to-
morrow, in three of the towns. Balti-
more will play an exhibition game with
the Yankees outside of the town.
Tomorrow the champion of champion
teams will open a series here with the
Newark Tigers. Joe McGiinnity and
George Mcconnell, undoubtedly the
two best right-handers in the league,
will face each other in the first bat
tie. There is a revised saying to the
effect that when Mick meets Mick"
there'll be a mix, and a regular Old
time Rochester-Newark controversy
can be looked for.
The Tigers had their s~emi-monthly
payday yesterday.
Financially this has been about the
worst week since the season opened
for the Newark club. On Sunday in
this city about 1000 fans saw the
Yankee-Tiger game, At Providence
Monday the paid admissions were 20
It raiped on Tuesday. and about l,30o
saw the double-header of Wednesday
In GRANVILLE.
During the last two days rain has
prevented the games with Jersey City.
There is a double header today. To-
morrow a series will he opened with
the Rochester Hustlers. Monday will
be an open date. The Hustlers play
two games here this trip.
The Toronto Maple Leafs finally
broke their losing slump yesterday, but
they had to score eleven runs to do II.
The Leaf pitchers are going bad and
could not prevent the Hustlers from
scoring six runs at that.
Ed Holly stole home in the Montreal
Buffalo game yesterday. The Royals
captured Just another. Hanford tripled
and had a homer. The change of air
certainly benefited the erstwhile insect.
The done never works right. Baltl-
more lost two out of three to Provi-
dence and the Tigers are back in last
after a brief sojourn.
George Smith, the new Tiger second
sacker. arrived in this burg today and
is ready TO don the spangles n trod
the boards this afternoon in the cause
of the Tigers. 1t Is the Iron Mans"
plan to fit Smith into his machine at
second base Immediately. and George
is scheduled to perform at the middle
cushion in the first game this after
noon.
With the acquisition of the Troy key
stoner, the Tigers now have three
Smiths-H. Clay. the magnate: Charley,
tbe nitcher and George. the second
saeker.
