Eberthardt'S Pills
Fixed Up Olathe7

AS announced early in the week, a
game of baseball was pulled off on the
Delta grounds yesterday between Ola.
the and Delta teams. A good number
Of fans were present from both Olathe
and Montrose and a good deal of en-
thusiasm was evidenced throughout
the game.
The Olathe boys are credited with
being strictly home team, but on
this occasion they did have one or
two imported foreigners in the shape
of Anheier and Greenbank from Mont
rose. They put up pretty good game
but were outclassed all round. The
game was perfectly friendly in every
way.
Delta made circle trip in the first
inning. when Guyer had worked him
self over to third in that classy and
seemingly impossible way he has and
Adams made safe hit
Second inning nothing doing.
Third, Delta succeeded in putting
three men over the plate, including
the invincible Guyer, Adams and
Schaff.
Delta scored again in the fifth and
sixth and Olathe got one man clear
around in the NINTH
Score: Olathe 1; Delta 6.
Eberhardt was in the box for his
first attempt for Delta and made a
showing for himself.
A feature of this game was Schaffs
three-bagger in the fifth inning. In
the seventh. while Roatcap was max
ing a sliding third. he came In such
violent contact with Schaff on third
base, that Schaff had to leave the
diamond. His head was bleeding pro
fusely. but he walked to the car I'M
assisted. In the last inning with a
man on second Mills made a dandy
hit that would have landed him safe
at second. had he not sprained his
ankle. However. Roatcap cleared the
plate with a good margin, saving Ola
the from goose-egg.
The game was free from the rabble
so often apparent in games OF this
kind. After all. it's sort of like play
ing ball in the family when Olathe
comes.

Baseball
DELTA scAIPs MoNTROSE
BASEBALL TEAM SUNDAY

The Delta baseball aggregation
went over to Montrose Sunday and
ut the end of the encounter the score
stood 5 to 3 In favor of the Delta boys.
Fully 800 fans went from here and n
goodly number from Somerset, Hotch-
kiss. Olathe and Colona. besides the
filters in and around the little village
OF Montrose
The day was not the best for ball
game, being cold and windy. but the
weather did not appear to have much
to do with the boys playing.
Montrosc has a very good team and
they play well considering, but In the
combat with Delta they were simply
outclassed.
The great drawback to the Montrose
team is being little too confident of
being able to walk away with every
thing that comes along. This is not
true in baseball but everything else
that comes up. The defeat is probably
felt more by percentage Of the citi-
zenship than the bah boys.
The newspapers up there have been
wasting n great deal OF space since
Sunday on this and that about the
ball game, and the latest coming to
notice is the furtherance of an idea
that betting should not be allowed on
the games. In this connection. we
desire to say that the Delta Baseball
association does not allow betting OF
any kind on the grounds. This fea-
ture is strictly adhered TO in every
game. II betting was allowed on the
game Sunday II Is matter that is
entirely in the hands OF the civil auth
critics and should be taken care OF
by that branch of their government

Honey" Guyer is fast becoming
the most sensational short stop on the
Western Slope. In Anheiers attempt
ted safe hit. Guyer pulled off the most
spectacular sensational play seen
this season when he raced out to short
left field and caught what looked to
be a safe drive. He pulled off a nifty
stunt when he sneaked from short stop
position to third base after Green
bank had led off a good ways and be-
lieved the catcher to have thrown to
second. when in reality the ball was
thrown to Luby to third. putting out
Greenland.
II is to regretted that Scott is with
us no more. He left after Sundays
game for the southern part of, the
state. Scott was OF great assistance
to the team in the three games he
played.
Schaff comes to us touted as the
best amateur third sacker in the state.
His base throwing is a little short of

tain OF the Delta team.

stop on the Western Slope, not only is
his receiving and pegging first class,
but his hitting is well up to the 400
mark, as well. His home run Sunday
with Guyer on second gave us the only
earned runs of the game.
McCarty, who has been playing out
field previous to coming to Delta, and
is now playing second base, is proving
to be not only playing his position well
but seems to have supply of two
base hits.
Flynn. first base. played a remark
able good game Sunday. putting out
IL. with no errors. Flynn's batting
average last year was $50.
Adams played an errorless game
Sunday. His work in the centerfield
was all that could be expected. His
speed leads us to believe that he will
pilfer great many bases before the
season is over.

Jack Eberhardt's work in center
field borders on the sensational and
gives promise of being Ty Cobb.
In view of few circumstances here
tofore existing. II seems rather strain
ing a point when the Montrose papers
take issue at this particular stage of
the game. against the alleged betting
on last Sundays ball game.
Wonder why it was that no storm
OF protest was raised last fall when
Montrose held that tournament, when
1t is alleged men stood up and waved
handfuls of greenbacks, offering all
kinds of bets on the outcome. Must
be someone up there won enough to

wouldn't want 1t to get out, but all

eye and wonder ito ourselves, of

drop little wad on the game.
