from sixth to third position. The score
was a kid glove ht to 6.
Ed Cicotte is d gentleman and an
athlete. What is more, he Is kind to
he old folks. But his sense of humor
has not been developed to that keen
degree which has made a wit OF gar

his work well this season. AS late at

Indeed the sterling fork hand OF

for Charley Mullen, who as pinch
