not sleeping on the job, but are trying

Yer. Old Man Roach, Mickey Graham
and little Freddie Blount, with Bill
Lurton DOMINIC the mask, protector
and glove. Weber. Sid Mcintosh.
George Brent and Soldier Smith
will make up the outtield.
Manager c. Lewis of the Norris

selected a city league tWirler that
they can all hit.
The manager of the Norris an

slated for mound duty. The $780,
10000 intield. composed of Mclean, c.
