LOCAL QUINTET IN
HIGH PIN RECORD

If they could only count the score
which was made by them last evening
as their contribution to the state tour
nament at Chicago, the Rock Island
quintet which is entered in the state
events would be certain of coping
q big slice of the change which has
been posted for high scores. Last
night the local team rolled against an
other team at the Rock Island club al
leys. Needless TO say, the team which
is entered in the tournament won and
by good, big margin, too. The total
number of pins secured by the local
team was $500. which is some high
score. The biggest game was 1,019,
and not an error was made in il. The
other games were 905 and CSC. In the
second and last games, only three err
ors were made by the local boys. Salz-
mann, who has just hit his stride aft
er a brief illness, rolled 655. Carl
Mueller was next with 610. John Wich
rolled 5GS, Oscar Lift came across
with 557 and Bill Hustc finished with
539.. Bringe. who will be the sixth
man, rolled with the picked team. The
Islanders leave tomorrow morning and
will enter the tournament tomorrow
night. They finish Sunday.

IN THE THREE-EYE

Springfield, April 25.-Elmer 'Hick-
ory' Johnson, former star catcher and
fence buster of the Springfield club
Of the ThreeI league, had but a brief
career in the major leagues. Johnson
will this season wear the uniform of
the Omaha club of the Western league,
the deal whereby the heavy hitter
goes TO that organization having been
closed yesterday by Dick" Kinsella.
Omaha is said to have paid $500 for
Johnson. Johnson began his league
career with Taylorville of the Kitty
league, and was purchased from that
club by Kinsella, then president of
the Springfield Baseball association.
Johnson was a terror to the pitchers
of the Three-I and his heavy stick
was responsible for many of the vic
tories of the local team. While he
was handy with the stick, Hickory
was also steady and reliable back
stop, but was considered too slow in
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1912-04-26

base running for a berth with the
majors. Decatur and Springfield were
both negotiating for the services of a
catcher, but the Omaha club was Civ
en- first call. When the Commodores
disbanded last year, Johnson was sold
TO New York. McGraw had no place
for the big fellow with Wilson, Meyers
and Hartley on the job, and a deal
was made for his transfer to the Car
dinals. Former associates and friends
of Johnson are confident he will make
good with Omaha.
