INDOOR BASE

TWO INTERESTING MATCHES
WERE WITNESSED AT THE Y.
M. C. A. LAST EVENING BY A
LARGE NUMBER.

The baseball games played IN the
gymnasium of the Y. NJ. c. A. last
night proved to be all that the players
and spectators expected. These games
were the first played in the local sym
nasium according TO strict indoor base
ball rules for several years and the
players, although they put up a fairly
good game, began to realize the
scientific features of the game and the
need for hard, earnest practice,
The Whitmans won from the Pirates
by the score of % TO 8 in the first
game. The team work Of the Pirates
was a little ragged at first but with
a few changes in the lineup they set
tied down.
The Tigers and Real Estates were
on the job next and these teams, hav-
ing profited by closely observing some
of the plays exhibited in the first game,
were able to make the game more in
teresting. Owing to the small size Of
a. regulation indoor ball diamond (27

run. The Tigers succeeded in taking

The players are very enthusiastic
over the game and will be out for
practice as often as the gymnasium

other double-header will be played
next Wednesday and judging from the
way the fellows like the game there
will be something doing in the way of
indoor baseball.

Ten or fifteen years ago a man

three, the fortunate manager of to-

The fact that the second string

catcher Of yesterday has nothing to
do with the ability of the man. II

That's the way Middle Georgia merchant

than freight-he had been buying the timel lost
in transit and paying for it in missed sales and
lost customers.

men had made good with the biggest houses in

could do better with Georgia factory
