III. j. Hustler Says Call the Baseball
Team the ''SaVaSe-TopS."

Topeka State Journal:
L wish to propose the name of the
''Savage-Tops'' for our baseball club,
a combination of the name of the
owner and Topeka.
AS the names of ball clubs seem to
run to Indian names / think the name
would also SAVIOR a little of the Indian.
Of course the players would have to
swear off getting their hair cut during
the season. H. j. Hustler,
