Friend Sports:-I suppose you
know by this time hat the Braves
detected t'e athaletics and so tber
amt no use uf my telling YOU that.
And you can put it down now that
the .AthaleticS aint going to win no
worlds series this wear.
If Gowdy and Rudolf and Maran-
Vii and Il few more braves had been
playing for the Athaletics yesterday
maybe connie Mack could have o
hat game but then those there fell
lows played for Staliinps and so there
was no chance for the Iiladelia gang.
Let me tel you snlmth!ng rite now
this man Gowdv is a bear and hes
going to win the worlds series. Wen
he UNI up to bat ii was just like
patrik I'laru!y STEPPING no to bust up
the games for the llikerlales. WY
! Wen Gowdy Gun up Bender just nat
chur!N put al! the duD he could get
on the ball but it NaSnnt no use becoS
Gowdy nocked it all Off asen. Gowdy
just split his dope all over The field
for him and pretty soon he run out
and connie Mack had to end Wickofr
in to finish it. | dont see my they
calls this here Baker homcrun baker
becos he isn't. They hollered for him
to make a homerun but he couldn't
do nothing except mock a twubaEgcr
and bet Gowdy could have made Il
homernn if they had asked him to
and I'm going to ask him to do 1t just
to show them that he can
But I'm forgetin all about Rudolf
who pitched for the braves. If STALL
ings let's him pitch agen the .Atha-
letics mite just as we'll stay rite in
the club house becos there wont be-
no use for them to play becos Rudolf
can put it all over them. 1 merely
died to see them try to bust his slow
ball rite on the frame. 1t moved into
the plate like a Crate Northern frate
train passing third street and vile
the Athaletics was swinging three or
fore times at it Gowdv was setting
down IN the ground taking a chew OF
tobakko n waiting for the ball to
cum mere enuf sos he could reach out
a finger and stop it. And say Wen he
had the nerve to strike out Baker |
merely got pinched for kicking another
ritter in the back becos l was so bust
ing with joy. I think he only let IN,
athaletics get those five hits SOS they
wouldn't get discouraged and want to
quit the series rite nov
Poor old Bender got his rite on the
bean and connie had to take him out
before Gowdy walked out and Killed
him with a bat sos to get over with it
insted of watching around till Bender

must have took the hide often the
ball before he went out to pitch becos
wen it started to go across the plate it
didn't have nothing on it. Bender
cudnt bender Il think that's pretty
good don't you) twist it at all. If he
had uncorked his stuff with a cork
skrew he cudnt have made the BALL
curve at all cos it lust seemed to go
rite up to the braves and stop there
until they hammered it clere back
to the walls.
L merely forgot all about Maranvil.
He is such a small little runt that it's
no wunder that enyon merely forgets
him but don't you believe hes as small
as he looks for he shure can play

they would slam in as meny scores
as they could and thew did for the

me of patrik Flaruty makeing catches
out in rite field for the Grand Forks
team.
] suppose You wanta know how the

sumbody to make an error SOS the
Athaletics could get one u and not
feel SO bad yer it. And so Rudolf
walked Mickinus wen he cum up and
then Strunk hit II sin-el at Moran and
he seen that that was a good chance
to do wot Stallings sed and so he
showed his legs apart and let the ball
rool threw to the fence and M:ckinus
