There is no reason why
the public that supports so

| Joe French will be out of the game
! during the remainder of the season and
Dale Gear is trying to find an inf1eld-
err to take his place. There is nothing
in the injuries of French, which might
i cause permanent disability.
Mari, a young infielder from the
Great Bend team of the Kansas State
| League, reported to Manager Dale Gear
! Tuesday. He engaged in batting prac-
tice and looked well. He hit .292 in
the State League and was one of the
/ best infielders on the circuit
According to the Kansas City Jour-
nal, George Tebeau, owner of the
Blues. will oppose any movement of
President O'NeiII to place Western
league club in Kansas City. Tebeau
is of the belief. says the Journal, that
there is not room for two clubs in Kan
sas City.
Lincoln News: Polly McLarry does
not have to apologize to any one for
his system of holding down the sec
ond sack. Gear is slowly working the
kinks out of PoIly's cumbersome frame
and another season will show him go
ing after the grounders with all the
case of A Johnny Evers. He looks
awkward in trying for his putouts and
assists but he gets them Besides that,
he is as dangerous a man at bat as
the Topekans have in the lineup.
Des Moines Regulator and Leader:
Just why Umpire Ole Anderson should
be inflicted on Des Moines in more
than half the games played on the
home grounds is not entirely clear
to us.
In the recent Denver series Segrist.

Wichita Beacon: The expected howl
was uucorked by the wise fans yester-
day over the sale of Phil Koerner.
These same fans are the ones who con-

fact that the manag cement has sold or
turned loose all their best players In
fact they can't see anything but grief
through their own distorted eyes They
point to the loss of Clemens, Ellis, Cal
Iahan, WesterziI, Fucik, Pettigrew,
Craig and now it is koerner.
An anvil chorus has been after Koer-
ner all season and practically ruined
him for Wichita Koerner is a sensi-
tive player who can not stand the crit
icism of the fans and consequently his
work fell off until he was not playing
in anything like his real FORM A word
of praise from the fans would cause
Koerner to swat the ball a mile where
criticism would cause him to strike out.
Ball players are but human and they
make errors. Some baseball fans are
hardly human That grand old ball
player Hans Wagner. IS getting
sample of the anvil chorus. If Hans is
not free from the knockers chorus no
