THIS IS AWFUL

1t becomes our painful duty to
relate that the Kennewick baseball
aggregation, under the leadership
of Capt. Martin, the Hairless Won
der, went to Pasco last Sunday and
were booted all over the sand lot
to the extent of about 10 to l..
This was the first of series of
five games, winner to take all the
gate receipts. 1t is safe to say that
if the team doesn't pull itself to-
gether and make some sort of a
showing next Sunday, said gate
receipts will not include much Ken
newick money. Street corner prac-
tice never made ball team, as a
dozen raucous fielding errors by
Kennewick in last Sundays game
goes to show.
The boys have been putting in
many hours of strenuous practice
in the barber shop this week and
claim they have it ali doped out
how to upset the apple cart of Sui
livan's team and stow away the
next three games, likewise the
mazuma. Mebbe, mebbe, but we
ha' our doOts."

Mayor Bier and the council think
that there are too many dogs at
large in Kennewick and propose to
do some thinning. Fido will come
up missing, presently. if one OF
those nice new tags is not hung on
his collar. So far there have been
but two licenses issued, and it looks
as if the crop of defunct purps will
be large. The harvesting will be-
gin the first of the week with
Cal" in charge. If you like
your Fido a dollars worth, get a
tag.
