Oueerest Plays

pulled off on our team when / was
playing on the Army team, Goth In
fantry ever heard Of We were play
ing the Casca Bellies of Buffalo at
Fort Niagara a few years back when
] was in the army. This team is about
the best semi-pro team in Buffalo but
despite that we bested them 2 to O.
The peculiar play came in about the
seventh inning this way
I'VE had first and second occupied
with base runners and the man at bat
shot a liner over second which looked
good for at least two Dagger. Both
base runners started out at full tilt
for home Imagine their surprise
when the player who had been on first
ran plump into Durham the Casca's
second sacker who had made a re-
markdble one hand stab for a flyout
on the batter and turning around to
run into the players coming from first
for an out and then touching second
for a triple out without an assist.

by punching hits in the last of the

improvement was shown in the hitting

cleanest possible and no less than six

MARLATT |NSTRuCTS
FORD TO BUY BIRDS

Charles Marlatt of the board of pub
lie works, who has supervision over
park affairs, said today that Park Su-
perintendent Ford had been instruct
ed to investigate into the advisability
of purchasing two ostriches for the
Glen Miller zoo. These valuable birds,
which ordinarily sell for $500 or more
apiece, are being offered by an Ari-
iona concern for $50 each and if two
good birds can be purchased for this
amount the city will probably contract
for them. A place for them could be
provided either in the elk range or the
deer park. In winter special quarters,
well heated, would have to be pro-
vided for them. Mr.. Marlatt thinks
they would be great attraction at the
park. The purchase of a pair of buff
faloes is also being considered
