Here,. a Great s.rikeout Record.

In the net OF discussing strikeour
records, here Is one worth looking over.
In n battle az Shippan. Conn. recently
Kings school played Stamford. The
contest ran 20 twelve innings. during
which time Earl Sarcka OF Kings
school famed twenty nine men, while
Daniels. the rival slabman. totaled
twenty strikeouts, thereby running the
total up 10 forty strikeouts for
the game.
While Sarcka whitfield twenty nine OF
his rivals. holding them 70 six hits, he
was beaten 60 .. When an athlete
can strike out twenty-nine OF the thir-
ty-six batsmen who face him In n
twelve round game he must be some
where close along. Forty-nine for the
game is record that has never even
