about . 1-2 of such votes to Cats
it is safe to say that if the votes
in every county in Florida were re-
counted that Knott would gain from
10 to 20 votes in every one of the
80 counties. Cats was the first to
use the courts, calling in the court
to his assistance in the Alachua pre-
cinct of Alachua county. Some seem
to think that it is highly improper
for Knott to call on the courts, al
though it as a we'll known fact the

Comments on the Game
Some hot day and some hot argu
ment.
Seemed good to see that old ball
park crowded, but what a pity such
a good game has to end on account
OF cold feet.
Wonder If the game will be pro-
tested.
If not, wonder If it will be for
feited.
Baby Brown pitched grand game
and Lakeland is proud of him.
Tenny batted one thousand in the
first game. If the rest of the boys
had only batted $50 we might have
had 'em both.
And little Benny started all the
fuss. 1t took the baby to show up
the cold feet.
Davis balloon was going up and
Harper knew it, hence the argu-
ment. !
Well, fans. while YOU are reading
this, we will probably be on our way
back from Winter Haven and we all
hope we come back with the bacon.
