g., F. G. AS" after the new r. r.
Yours truly. Miss Loneta Harris, 500

1 saw your ad in the paper in re-
CARDS to a name for our baseball club

as a good one-The Invincfbles or
the Uno-Base Ball Club, as very good
ones Yours truly, Harvey Miner, 10
n. Baylen ST., Pensacola. Fla
Please consider the name. Deep
Water Bugs" as name for the PEN
sacolas. E. E. Kelly. 516 n. Coyle
St, City.
In regard to a name for our league
team, / would suggest the name of
the "Mallorys.' After one of Pensa-
cola's honored citizens. in his time.
Willie Fauria, No. 800 E. Zarragossa,
City.
AS an appropriate name for the
Sailors" and to emphasize the sig
nif1cance of the term let there be
stitched under the name, on the blouse
of the uniform an anchor. Very re-
spectfully, James T. Tate.
After reading all the letters with
names for the Pensacola bal, team, !
ask to accept another from me. /
Travelled Louisiana, Mississippi, Ala
bama and when 1 tell people am from
Pensacola they say, oh, you are a sand
crab, so am sending that name, Sand
Grab in for the ball team Dissie
Sintes.
I think Deep Bay Blues" would be
a suitable name if their uniforms
are blue. Oliver E. Kernick, Fort Bar
rancas.
Amused at the names suggested for
our newly acquired baseball club, ]
was struck by the appropriateness of
some, the unaninity Of thought and
the earneStness of all. Snappers, or
Red Snappers preponderate in num- |
Der of names suggested. 1 wonder if
any of those SUCCESSORS thought that
perhaps John r. Sckoot might have
copyrighted the name for his Red |
Snapper" sauce factory which still !
stands clear out of sight, and in whose |
magic shadows, ttoma toes and peppers |
spring into full fruition under the |
ma gic of his wand. "Gophers' are per- |
haps next in popularity. GopherS |
wisely know when they have enough, |
then seek there holes if permitted. |
But why is his old friend of centuries, |
the Razor Back neglected here. The
gopher and the razor back are among |
F1orida's oldest Inhabitants. Ever |
truly democratic, never bolt their |
party and have ever freely contributed |
of their substance since the days Of |
Ponce de Leon. Progressives, well, |
that abused name is fast becoming a |
joke. But why Grabs ?" Crabs are |
generally near the bottom and do not |
know when to let go, and |
sometimes smell bad when warmed |
UP. Busy Bees" are good, but liable |
+ do t1o oh 1at1z1 |
Quaker sting their best friend. Pensa-
cotton. well, well, none raised here,
and hardly enough in county to clothe |
league. Game Cocks" they are beau |
ties by nature, and all admire their |
courage. But where Sea GuIls, |
Hawks, Bears and Cuffs" come in is |
but dimly apparent. Live Wires |
Boosters, and Mascots are good, but |
the latter is generally spoiled by pet |
ting. Ground Hog" well he is
too fond of alternating and |
too suggestive of sausage. Deep
Water is dangerous for those not |
on top. Then follows a myriad |
of other names, while no doubt |
still others are in a state of incuba- |
ton. But there remains another name, |
strangely overlooked to date, more |
suitable than any yet suggested. Here |
in this Christian city by the sea, the |
home of the Cotton States League,
above all others should be honored /
with a name at once appropriate, and |
suggestive Of it's Christian character. /
A city filed with churches, school |
houses, Sabbath schools. Missions, Y.
NJ. C. A, blessed with able ministers,
learned teachers, etc. Therefore / i
suggest the following name, truly /
striking and appropriate. Sunday
Busters. ]. L. Young.
would suggest the name for the
base ball team as THE Pensa- Cola's,"
would be a good lad" for the city.
