Those fans who thought the Kaws
were due to lose game after having

incest games of the season, which the
kaws won by a score of to 1.
With Alderman and Emory, both
formerly of the local club on the
Wichita staff, the dope that the
Witches were to beat the Kaws was
strong. But the loyal ones witnessed
one of the incest games of ball put on

In the seventh Chapman again sin

Great Bend 5; Minneapolis A.

Great Bend, July 6.-Local pros
poets for winning the diploma were
several shades brighter when business
closed at the ball park last evening.
The talented Millers overcame the
Minneapolis team 5 to 4. There was
much cheering by the three teams of
spectators assembled in the grand
stand over the antics of the outf1eld-
ers of the visiting team in their vain
efforts to get under some of the ava
lanche of two baggers that contributed
to the undoing of Bugs Elmer and the
team without home
Two points in the game stand out in
dazzling contrast to everything else.
The one was Schimnoski's great catch
and the other even greater. Chef
Brown stole second. Elmer pitched a
good game and thought because he
lost the other day he couldn't lose
twice in the same place. Bugs dope
would have been all right if Schim-
nosk1, FEEDER, Herman, Pittman and
Mettler had lost their right arms just
before the game started. Score:

Enough double plays have been made

Patterson to Walsh to F'rantz, Ryan to
Walsh to Frantz and Walsh to Patter-
son to Frantz combination keeps up its
present gait the Kaws will lead the
league in double plays this year. OF
course they may not. Precedent is
three hustling players filling the hor
corners just now. Patterson started a
double play Friday on one so hot that
few people expected him to corner it.
Our suggestion is that Fugate be fired
again. Otherwise he may lose a game
again some time. BY firing him again

although his support caused the red TO
glow in Johns face time or two. But
Jack was master of every situation
which arose. And Jack can keep it Up
if he wants to. It is entirely up 20
the crack south slider.
Chapman was injured when he slid
home in the seventh inning and
Schmidt caught the remainder of the
game. He handled F'ugate nicely, as
Chapman had been doing, and got away
with the tail end of good game in nice
shape. ChapmanS INJURY is said not to
be serious. 1t was a great slide too.
Hughes grabbed Haskell a little from
time to time in the Friday contest but
without apparent cause, as far as the
grandstand spectators could see Jack
even favored the Witches a little, as 1t
appeared to the crowd, but this action
resulted il no damage. Jack has given
the fans here a treat by his work
When he is going right, it is as much
pleasure to watch him work as 1T is
