race but one, when he was third. 1t is
to be remembered that Government
Bond never had any training or scored
IN single race until after being
brought here in August of 1913. while
klee did not come here until January,

Harding, who has had the handling of
these two horses. is an exceptionally
good trainer as we'll as driver. We
had the temerity early in the season to
call attention to these two horses, and

Barton academy baseball team again
lost to Orleans high by score of 16
to Saturday local grounds. John
son in the box for Barton pitched
fairly good game and there were few
real hits, outside Matthews, who
seems able to connect at all times.
johnson had poor support throughout
the game but the young fellows will
learn to do better and the coming
season will be able to put up a real
game. However, Johnson is really
needed at No. 2 and Smith would make
first baseman, which would put Com
stock at short and greatly strengthen
the team, if some one will only show
up between now and spring training,
who can pitch, the problem will be
easily solved. The boys are to be
congratulated in having the ardent
support of the academy girls, who were
be discouraged. This should not de-
tract from the fact that Orleans, high
has remark ably good team this sea-
son and Mann seems to be able to put
the ball about where he pleases, the
infeld, too, works out like ball team
and our boys will have to go hard to
take any games from this aggregation,
but the fellows are game and with
! some good stiff coaching will develop.
