by team representing this' city was
received by President r. NJ. Wilbur,
Of the local club, gift from Harry
Burton, OF Chicago, western baseball
department manager Of A. G. Spalding
& Bros.
AS the championship was won after
hot fight and a breathless finish, so
is the recognition Of the honor elab-
crate enough to satisfy every one. The

is sixteen feet long and nine feet high
at Its highest point. A red, white and
blue color scheme is carried out ana
on the penrant Is inscribed In white
letters, Champions, Central Associa-
ton, 1917"
Real baseball atmosphere pervades
the window in the Wilbur store, where
the pennantc is on display. The ban
ner itself is hung full length across
the window, while In the foreground Is
display Of Spalding baseball goods
a copy of The Sporting News and OF
the Times Republican, the latter the
issue of Sept. g. 1916. which contained
an account of the locals double victory
over Clinton, which cinched the cham
pionship. Further local color is added
by peanut shells, a bag OF peanuts.
and bottle of pop, which lie scattered
about, bringing to- mind the happy day
last September when all yelled them
selves hoarse as Lee stole home with
the winning run and brought Mar
shalltown its first pennant.
