We wish we could say that the play
ground idea was growing in Newber-

several years to plant the idea in
this good town but we could never get
it to take root Some day some one
will say what a pity the park as
suggested and advocated by The

ed.
There is no town the size of New
berry within our knowledge that has
the natural advantage to have an
ideal park within the centre of the

not wake while the opportunity is
here. Some one said opportunity

WAHLF' letter
FULLY SETTLES
RECORD QUERY

That lotto Wahle of A. A. u. rec.
| ords committee writes on the records
land settles nothing" is statement
in the morning paper relative to a
letter received by the editor of the
STAR Bulletin, from the nations fore
most authority ON swimming records.
Mr.. Wahle's letter, which was printed
in yesterdays issue of the Star Bulle-
tin, put the final spike in the fake
claim of the morning paper that Duke
broke the, 50-yard and 220-yari
worlds records in the June IL swim
ming meet here.
Reference to the. official record
book of the A. A. U. or to the Worlds
Almanac, could have prevented the
original ridiculous misstatement OF
the morning paper, but because some
over-enthusiastic officials at the meet
contracted the habit of calling every
time that was hung up worlds
mark, one OF the morning papers
bright young men Numbered, and then
adopted the childish policy of trying
to stick to a claim that printed rec
ords disproved. The reference to
worlds A. A. u. records" which
came day or so later by way of an
out is still standing joke in local
sportdom.
Here are some of the statements
made in MIR. Wahle's letter, which
the morning paper claims settles
nothing.

ny-on-the-Spot" IL Evers had been
absent that afternoon, maybe he
would still be working in a collar
factory, where he was employed at
the time he broke into professional
baseball. As il was, he gave a cred
liable account of himself. and Bacon
had him play in several other exhibit
ton games before the regular season
began. Pugh arrived the day before
the opening game, and Eyers was
sent to right field. but the future
king of tue Keystone Base" was not
destined to stay in the outfield. Pugh
did not play very we'll, and Evers was
made the regular short-stop. The
new manager of the Chicago Cubs
tells his own story in an interview
with a New York Evening Telegram
reporter:
So that 1t may be understood that
it was not q sort of haphazard guess
on the part Of Bacon in asking me to
play. it is necessary for nue. to ex-
plain that previously had been play
ing semi-professional ball in and near

nearly broke" for never made any
money out Of 1t.
During 1901 my team won the cham
pionship of a small league that we
were connected with. and in the au-
tumn when the local boys who had po-
sitions with minor and major league
clubs returned home they formed a
team to play US.
In that game I played third base,
shortstop, and pitcher. and somehow
or other we won Bacon offered me a
contract then. but declined.
Lacked Confidence
/ never thought very much or my
ability as a player. was wanting in
confidence and feared that wouldn't
make good. That was my real reason
for declining.
It was funny the way attracted the
attention of tom" Seeley. then the
