Lincoln Star: Milo Stratton is still
under the influence. Subconsciously his
mind has been affected by the presence |
Of Paul Cobb. During the last stay at
home, Milo began to fall victim to the |
hallucinaticn that he and Paul were
brothers and this naturally led him to |
believe himself to be Tyrus. Since that /
time, the strong man of Crotona has
been driving out home runs and regis |
tering an extra number OF hits day
with regularity. His trio were pretty 1
near half the total secured by the LOpes |
vester day. The only fault which the 1
team has to find with Milo's hallucina- |
ton is that ne SOIneLlfnGS takes To run
ming wild on the bases, a branch OF the
national pastime for which nature un-
kindly did not fit him.

with palm leaf wagged by a lazy hand; /
We work our heads off out in tn sun,
By TIL sweat of our brow to earn each
run.
They nibble tn goober an sip tn pop.
We run tn bags till We're ready to drop; |
They loaf an laugh, we fight an fuss,
But it's them that knows tn game, not
We worry an welter, stew an sweat,
To win them geezers a pil1er bet.
For nine long innings of strife an strain
We bat an battle with Drawn an brain;
We hit tn ground with a lusty whack
That loosens our Stats an breaks our
back:
Then riding home on tn trolley car
We learn what bunch O. dubs we are.
