The Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1???-1928, 1913-07-22

Inasmuch as the greater number
of papers over the circuit are pub
fishing various standings of theI
Kitty the sporting editor of the
Commercial got in communication
with DR. Bassett, president of the
Kitty, and was forwarded the cor
rect standing which appears in this
issue and is official.-Vincenne
Commercial
Again The Bulletin reiterates a
statement previously made that
! President Bassett is unable to give
anyone the correct official standing
in the Kitty league, insofar as Cairo.
Vincennes and Henderson are con
cerned.
Proof of this is contained in a
telegram of July y from President
Bassett to II. f Corn, official scorer
at Cairo.
This telegram was received at
1855 p. m. yesterday and requests
the scorer to send him the score
sheets of games p aged June 6-7-21-
% and 20,
The scores which he requests We're
not mailed to him on account of
John lIofheinz, who was official
scorer at the time, being compelled
TO undergo an operation. When Dr.. /
Bassett was here ON July 4. he mott |
fed Mr.. Corn of the delinquency
and requested that the sheets be
made out and forwarded him. The
Bulletin has positive knowledge |
that they We're made out that night |
and mailed to him.
The game of June with Hender-
son was postponed on account Of
rain and played off as a double
header on June s.
The scores of the games which Dir.
Bassett requested were as follows:
June 7-Cairo 6, Henderson Z;
June S-CSecond game postponed
from June 6)--Cairo ,, Henderson
5; June 21-Cairo s, Vincennes ?;
June 22-Cairo 5, Vincennes >;
June 23-Cairo 6, Vincennes g.
These score sheets in duplicate
have been made out and mailed to
the president again this morning
and it is hoped neither he nor Uncle
Sam won't lose them so the press can
get the standing correct.
