Lawyers of Kenosha Throw
Down Gauntlet to M. DIS
of City to Fight for Red
Cross and Honors.
BASEBALL IS CHOSEN WEAPON

Hear We! Hear Ye! To all men to
whom these presents come, Greeting:
Know we that hereby and hereon the
members of the Kenosha Bar Associa-
ton, through their duly authorized ag-
ents, Judge Clarkson and Attorney Ed
ward F. Higgins, do officially challenge
the doctors of the city of Kenosha to
q championship baseball game to be
played on or before Saturday, Septem-
Ter %, at the Jeffrey baseball parry in
said city, the proceeds from which
game are to be given in their entirety
to the Kenosha Red Cross Chapter.
Know ye, further, that refusal TO an
swer such challenge on the field of ac-
ton will forfeit all claims or rights to
hte professional championship of the
city which the doctors of this city may
have heretofore held or claimed. Eur-
shermore Saturday, September 18th, is
the day SET for the M. D. IS Of the city
this challenge as shall arrange for the
championship series or forfeit forever
all claims to. distinction on the baseball
field
This is the weighty challenge deliv-
cred by the lawyers of Kenosha to the
doctors of the city to settle on the base
ball diamond once and forever their out
standing difficulties It was delivered
with vehemence and bravado, which
indicated that the barristefs were in
for business and meant every word of
the challenge and were ready to defend
with glove and bat their claims to hon
or and distinction. They admitted that
the championship of the profession
ais might he termed doubtful honor
but held against all objections that the
cause for which they were working was
well worthy of the support of the Ke-
nosha public. If the doctors accept, as
they cannot refuse to do and retain
their sporting honor, there will be rules
drawn up Immediately to cover up ev-
cry detail of the great occasion.
| lawyers were little reticent but read
lily admitted that it would be major
league brand. They have two or three
surprises in store in the way of excel
| lege stars but were ready to announce
that Judges Taylor, Randall and Clark
son might be found on that afternoon
gamboling-notice the COIN the
outfield gardens. They went so far as
to say that they would waive all their
superior rights of objections and aus
| tanned rulings in arguments with the
umpire and would not handicap their
opponents by their apparent lack OF
forensic ability.
Answer to the challenge is awaited
and expected Immediately. A few of
the doctors, who were seen this morn
ing were aroused by the formal chal-
lenge of the lawyers, as it inslnuatod
that the barristers could win a regular
rine inning contest of the national pas
tine-and win in walk, too. Their
answer will, it is believed, show an
equal fighting spirit and open the way
to spirited nine-inning contest which
will be an historic event in the sport
annals of the summer. Meanwhile the
public is advised to lay aside quarter
-or maybe more-and be ready for the
fray, when it is called.
