BASE BALL NOTES.

Inc seasons close is approaching.
Inc schedule of the league does not
call Tor many more games for our
team here at home. The team does
no5 return home for awhile but let's
hope they climb up until they rest a
good, comfortable distance from the
bottom.
Landgraf seems to be figuring for
new players right along and hopes
to soon bring the club up TO better
condition.

secured by Landgraf and he will prob

ne VIII be valuable acquisition, for
more than one job has been lost for
MIN because OF his uncontrol in this
respect. The Count took turn on
the slab last Thursday and won a
great game for the locals.
Wausau has gotten together another
strong outtielG, as we had at the be-
ginning of the season. Gresel is the
only player in the outfeld who started
the season with the lumberjacks.
The inteld has been given another
shakeup. Bohlman, who was with
Fond du Lac several years ago, has
been secured to play third. Land
graf played King at third base sever
al times las t/week.
The team is out of last place any
way and it is winning.
Appleton is the only club which is
within the salary limit and but for
the fact that financial straits are bad
at Appleton we are afraid the club
would be counted also as a lawbreaker.
Following is the percentage of the

The Grand Rapids Elks were taken
in at Yawkey park last Friday after
noon during struggling rain, which
continued through almost the entire
contest and which ended materially
in making the game a slower one than
had been expected. The locals gath
cred their pile Of scores in the first
three innings and this lead could not
be overcome by the Rapids players.
In the first, one run was gotten by
Ray Weiks, but this did not end the
scoring by any means, for the locals,
who when their second bats came,
just murdered Akey, the pitcher from
Grand Rapids, and here seven men got
past third base. Nothing could be
done by the Rapids, so four more tai
lies were passed over the plate in the
third inning, and this ended the fun
for our boys.
Then there came some fun for the
Rapids boys and they ran five runs
home, just as if they were profession
ais.
Following is the score of the game
by innings:
