Ball players come and go In the anna
teur ranks but there is one who has
been consistent performer with various
clubs for many years and instead Of
deteriorating his work seems to be as
good IL not better than ever before. Jack
Spaulding is the man referred to, and
the southwest boz is still one of the
best in the city. Jack is member of
the r. p. Andrews club which has beer
playing the Federal League teams, and
against each aggregation has played a
stellar game. Spaulding also holds down
the shortfeld for Steel Plant. in the
Potomac League, and is clouting the
ball with a regularity which Is pleasing.
The work of Brownie Lemeric on
third for the Federals in their recent
game with the team from the Library Of
Congress was of nature deserving
especial commendation. Lemeric had ten
chances, every one, of which was Of a
difficult nature. and he accepted each
with ease. There has not been an all
around fielding exhibition given by any
player in the league this season which
excels that of Lemeric. In addition to
his brilliant work afield. he aided his
two safe hits and scoring two of his
teams eight runs.
"'Bus" Hager. for the Tennallytown
club. has been clouting the ball for keeps
in the Marquette League, and with sew
eral more such days as he experienced
against st. stephens should have no diff
ficulty reaching the top Of the list. Bat
ting against Logan, of the st. Stephens
aggregation. Hager connected for home
and three singles out Of five times at
the plate. In addition to his hitting pro-
clivities Bus is one Of the most capable
receivers of the league, base runners
fearing his true pegs when attempting to
swipe sacks.
Games in the Railroad Y. NJ. c. A.
League are Of the abbreviated variety,
not because Umpire Handfboe does not
keep the boys hustiins. but because on
account of the fact that many are un-
able to get Off from their work. play 10
not called until O'Clock. That six
and seven innings are gone through In
the short time before darkness speaks
wen for the vim and snap displayed BY
the players and the ump.
