For a few hours Monday this
county had a wet" county attor-
ney. George Bischoff wanted to wit
ness the water fight at the Chapman
celebration and went too near the
fighters. The hose slipped and about
sixteen thousand gallons of water
poured slap on the county attorney,
transforming his new fall suit into
a dripping bathing costume. By
standing in the sun he recovered his
former dryness.

NO MORE GRAPEFRUIT
FOR MANAGER ROBINSON

Wilbert Robinson. manager of the
Brooklyn Superbas, has developed a
great dislike for grapefruit, since he
was rendered helpless by being hit
with one tossed from Ruth Laws
aeroplane. A baseball was to have
been thrown out of the machine, as
it passed over the ball park, but the
party selected to do do the trick
forgot the ball and substituted q
grapefruit. When Robinson saw the
sphere coming down. he thought IT.
was lemon, and proceeded to nail
it. The vetran catcher misjudged the
fruit, and instead of catching it in his
"mits," it walloped him on the arm,
leaving yellow streak on Robin
son that will take sometime to wear
off. If there is any thing that the old
manager despises worse than a yell
low streak, its a grapefruit.

MAKES DISCOVERY

Instructor Christie of the Clarendon

material for a great golf player in the
person of Wilbert Robinson, manager

develop something out of the ordinary
as a golfer. Only yesterday the

HILL WARNED MANAGER
Hamllton's Use Of Five Veterans Was
Against Wishes Of Former Man
aser Belden
Hill

Fortune is smiling with reverse
English on Jimmy Hamilton's Cedar
Rapids Bunnies. Five more games,
won by his club. have been thrown
out by the league president, NJ. E.. Jus
tice. for alleged violation of the four
veteran rule. This brings the total
to eight games that have been thrown
out during the past three days, all OF
which were won by The Bunies.
These last i've games were won
from Marshalltown. Manager Richards
sent protest to President Justice
Tuesday and after Investigating the
matter, President Justice cast all five
Of them into the discard. The games
will have to be played over. The dates
of the games were June 8. 9. 16, II and
Is. The games were declared illegal
because Hamilton's team contained
five players who had seen more than
thirty days service in league OF
higher classification than Glass D.
According to information that has
leaked out here, Hamilton's action in
signing more than four old men was
done without the approval of Belden
Hill, godfather Of Cedar Rapids base
balloon. Hill, 1t is said, wrote To-
Jus tice that he had warned Hamilton

limit. Hills warnings had been disre-
garded by the new Bunny manager.
Action Of Justice Endorsed.
The action Of President Justice Is
said to receive the endorsement Of ali
managers In the circuit who are with
lin the limit. These men say that
while this action hits the Cedar Rap
ids team hard blow. that Hamilton
can blame no man but himself for his
misfortune. Repeated warnings have
been issued by the league head to the
managers that he would enforce the
ruling absolutely. These managers
point out that 1t would be unfair for
Justice not to enforce the rule when
a part of the clubs were within the
| limit.
It is understood that Centerfielder
Hickey is the man used by Hamilton
that caused the trouble. This play
er's record was under investigation
come time ago when 1t was learne1
by Justice that player of the same
name was with the Waterbury club
! of the Eastern association an entire
summer Both hamilton and Hickey
denied that the player ON the Bunny
team was the same man. Later, how
ever, information was secured that
proved the Cedar Rapids Hickey to be
the same one who had played in the
Eastern league.
