The rest for Joe Rickert will put one
of the wisest men on the team out of
the game. Perhaps a little rest for
Joe will help him. Perhaps he will
come back better after a week or two.
But Joe can do a good job of fielding
and is a dangerous hitter with men on.
We don't have any too many of them
on the Kaw lineup so take care of
yourself, Josephus. and get into shape
for fast work soon. The writer has
believed for some time that Rickert
would do better with a change of
some kind. Perhaps the rest will do
it. The old boy was evidently trying
his best but didn't play quite up to the
standard he Established last year.

The proposed shift in the outfield
may help in this respect-it may start
Lee to pounding the ball into safe
places instead of hitting it a mile a
minute at some one. 1T will also give
him a chance to show that he is a
lightning fast outfielder. All reports
on Lee indicate that he is one of the
fastest outgardeners in the business

stunts in the scoreboard territory

Lees case is a puzzler. He has
tried twice this year, at the shortfield
job and can't go it. Yet last wear he
was shortf1elder of all kinds of class.
He isn't hitting well this year and last
year he led in the league in which he
played. Last season at this time he
was hitting three and a half, which
isn't at all bad. And he doesn't hit
at bad ones here, except occasionally
a high one. But the bail bounds mer-

hands a good portion of the time The

Motor Truck for Wafer Co.

Mr.. !. y. Gilman. manager of
light and water plant, IS figuring on
buying an electric truck to be Tut
IN service for the hauling of coal TO
the plant. This is quite an item
OF expense, and the makers of tru cks
have abolt convinced MIR. Gilma n
that the amount can be reduced and
that more satisfactory service can
at the same time be secured. 1t is
linncd that a three and a half ton
tuck will be about the most pracli-
cal size, and it Is estimated that
this would do the work of at least
three teams. The expense of charg-
Ing the batteries would amount to
practically nothing, as the plant has
extra power all the while, and the
operating expenses of an elc ctric
would be extremely light. This
would be the FIRST motor vehicle in
