RICHEY DRAWS RELEASE:
TEAM BADLY CRIPPLED
PITCHERS CLARK AND ATKINS
ARE SIGNED BY GOAT.
Welsher and Gray Are Out-Moran
Has Sprained Ankle and Booze
Has Charley Horse

The long expected release OF Pitcher
Earl Richey finally came yesterday
when Manager Anderson handed the
former Potter his unconditional re-
lease following his poor showing
against Springfield Yesterday after
noon. R!chey's work fer the past
month has been anything but salts
factory. and while the lad has been
trying his level best 10 give Goat the
best he had. he failed. There is no
doubling the fact that Richey has
pitched some good games during his
existence as a Smoke. but the good
ones have been so few and far be-
tween that they failed TO Offset the
bad ones.
Earl was an crratic pitcher II that
word explains II. On some days he
had everything and had IL going right,
while on others he had absolutely
nothing. He was the best conditioned
player on the entire squad and II was
on this account thar he was kept on
tho payroll hy Goat. He came TO
Wheeling from East Liverpool at the
end Of last season and he will prob
ably hook on with one OF the four
clubs now composing the o. & p cir
emit. Earl was a hard worker ard
never gave mp. and his many local
admirers hope TO see him stage a
come back"
