With the arrival OF Taylor and Lane
five Of the pitching sezft arAynow in the
city. Taylor was a member OF last
years Kewanee team. and is one OF
the most promising looking members
Of the squad. Lane, who did not reach
the city until late last night. IL re-
puted to be a moundsman Of exception
al ability. Kleminskfs arrival insures
competition Tor the third sack and
shoftstop positions. He is man OF
whom much Is expected. Severied, the
Story City boy, comes with the support
Of great ball-playing brother be-
hind him and reputation Of being
fully as good as the older SEVERED, ac-
cording to the latter's own statement.
SEVERED is good sticker, and fast on
the bases. He is trying for first base In
opposition to three others, all OF whom
have size and experience.
Campbell, quiet and unassuming. has
had professional league experience and
Is the idol Of the Edora fans. HIS quiet
manner and modest air has already
made him a faSorite with those who
have met him. Endsley, Of West
Branch, is much OF the same type. and
looks a 'sbear" for work. Endsley, il q
big man, yet fast on hjs feet, ana has
a reputation OF being a hard hitter.
Loomk, who arrived with his teatnmate
Lane. is also after an outer garden
position. Both Loomis and Lane are
known in this city and heye z Reseonal
following which vouches Tor ther
ability to make good.
The first warm up will be given
the men this afternoon, when the AQuad
will be taken to the park for light -prac-
tice work. A cold northeast wind this
forenoon foreboded little real work to-
day and possibly not tomorrow.
Clean Looking Lot.
f. The squad as a whole looks good to
the fans, altho several of the members
are young and inexperienced In profes-
sional ball The team, however, Will
be made up Of big men. fast on their
feet and apparently gluttons for work.
The most encouraging signs Is the apE
parent good condition Of the men and
the entire lack Of traces Of dissipation.
In this respect the squad excels any
bunch OF ball players that has ever
been brought to this city for league
ball Every man OF the team comes
with record Of good habits. and every
man who has reported thus far bears
out the report in appearance. The
boys are clean cut, athletic, strong and
Of a respected high standard Of morals,
Several are college graduates and all
are men Of considerable schooling. They
have made q lasting impression on the
fans they have met, and It Is the gem
eral opinion that the team will be made
up OF gentlemen. who Will not forget
their good breeding either on or off
the baseiield field, and Who will be
credit to the city. Jos&fp Ht&.
