"The old life, boys, the old life.
When Jimmy Jackson's voice came
floating from deep center to grandstand
few days ago such words as these
sounded pretty sorrowful to the fans who
gathered in the hope of a Chick victory,
but with feeling in their hearts that
pennant chances were slipping away and
it was only a question of time until the
team or town would be hooted at all over
the cirsuit as the place that had a ball
team that found itself in the lead and
didn't know what TO do with it.
But the "old life here, stronger and
more terrifying to the opposing Iri-State
teams than ever before. Wilmington is on
top Of the ladder tramping on the fingers
of Harrisburg below and from the looks
of things the chasers are about tired Of
the game and are due for a big slump.
whit every man on the local team is
playing the best ball of his life. More
pitchers are coming. too.
Allen Russell is pitching better ball
than he did at the first part of the sea
son, a hard thing to believe but the rec
ords show that the Chick pitcher not
only wins his own games but goes in
with the sacks full and no outs, only to
put opposing batters down in one, two
three order.
Jackson is saving Brazell and the tall
fellow is going to come in mighty handy
some of these days. He has lost but one
game so far and when his services are
needed he will be most valuable
Tom Brown is pitching good ball and
has earned the title of a hard mcl
pitcher
