vile; William Shire. I Paris "a. B..
Coleman, Frank fort j. ..Grider, Rich

The selection of Mr.. Russell to head
the Blue Grass League is highly graft
flying to the Paris base ball fans, who
have the highest regard for the integ-
rIty of the new official and with his
thorough knowledge of base ball he is
we'll equipped to control the affairs of
