PACIFIC FAN WRITES
TO CONDEMN ELIZABETHA A.

With this letter the Pacific Eliza
beth A. A. incident is closed SO far as
this paper is concerned. Here is a
letter from a Pacific fan:
To the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star.
| would like very much if you would
publish an article from a spectator at
the Pacific A. c. and Elizabeth A. A.
baseball game played last Sunday: also
would like to criticize letter that was
printed in o ur last nights paper.
First of all where does this said Mr.
Bond get all of his information from
to point and boost a team he never
saw, as he was not at the game. The
secretary of the club acted as man
ager on this occasion. / like a good
square game of ball and / did see one
outside of a couple of decisions that
could be overlooked, as l think 1t was
not done Intentionally, as the best of
us make mistakes. and I guess Mr..
Bond is not perfect. He also made
the biggest mistake of his life when
he tackled the Pacifcs. I think he

manlike crowd | ever saw. because
they held a large crowd back till 4:30
D. m. before they started to play. They

not play till they got same. When they
did get it they held back and said they
would not play till they got a side bet
of $40; thereby only betting the Pa
cities money. Do you know wher
you get any guarantee before you
play? | don't, | guess the crowd

they are painted in the letter sent by
Mr.. Bond. as I guess you know that
Is it any crime to have an unfor-
tunate who has d crippled hanp to
umpire? Ortlieb as far as I heard of
him is a good pitcher, but why did he
not start the game. I will tell you
he said he had a sore arm that day,
and when he went in the box he was
hammered all over the lots. They then
started to make a burlesque of the
game when they We're beaten by put
ting in the first baseman.
In regard to a return game. as far
as 7 know, I think it would be a wise
move; but are the Pacifcs going to
cancel games for them? I see no rea-
son why.
Mr.. Bond. it is no disgrace to be
beaten by the Paciics, as they are a
crowd of young men who play the
game as well as many a professional.
I have seen a good many games OF
ball but If you were at the game Sun
day you would see one of the best
stunts ever pulled off on a diamond,
and that was when the second base
man of the Paciics stretched full
length on his stomach and his foot on
second base and caught the ball for a
force play. This roast was put in by

KRAMER'S DRESSING ROOM WITH AXES

his winnings to his dad" the gov
ernor did not approve of the racing
business, and finally 1t became neces-
sary for little Willie to sneak off when
he went to a race meet. Willie eluded
the elder Fem one day and sneaked
off to ride in the races at the Berlin
County Fair. There were no training
quarters provided for the riders, so
Willie went to a remote corner of the
grounds and donned his racing toys
behind a clump of shrubbery. He
hung his clothes on a hickory limb
and returned to the track for the races.
After a successful afternoon of racing
Willie gleefully left the track for the
improvised dressing-room where he had
left his clothes. When he reached the
spot he was amazed to see a hungry
looking steer munching a sleeve-aiI
that was left of Willie's best coat.
The MOST EXCITING moment of
Willie's career was when he returned
home, related the tale of the coat and
the hungry steer and then watched his
father, who was a practising black
smith, slowly roll up his sleeves and
expose two w~ell-developed arms.
