Bert NiehOR.

, Philadelphia, July 5.--Bert Niehoff,
Of the Phillies is the mystery, the
uncharted reef OF the infield. Bert
defies all the traditions Of baseball
in keystoning. He is not agile;
he is not split second thinker, yet
he has become a valuable second
baseman and is getting better all the
time.
It is q peculiar situation that, ale
though Bert Is playing his third
straight season at second base, he Is
regarded by many fans as more of
temporary filler Of position than a
regular, and that the team is just
waiting for the right man to come
along to give him the post and send
Bert to the bench.
Yet 1t would take a remarkable
performer to take Niehoff's place
away from him now. His work has
not been merely good; it has been
brilliant. He twists himself into
knots, sometimes stopping bad
bounding balls and getting off his
throws, but he gets his quarry just
the same.
He is not the personification Of
grace, but gets the same results as
tAC 81 0yuOuAuSs i ne DbSJ LTluul6 "
Niehon is that when he wasn't play
ing the position this year the Phils
were whipped regularly. When he
was able to get in the game: the
brace was immediate. Bert Yields a
stronger influence on the infield than
any Of the fans realize.
He is q hard worker, never shirks
and never plays to the grand stand,
He throws every ounce Of his
strength into the game and doesn't
know what quitting means.
II Ntehoff has been faultless on
the defense he has been a sumner on
the offense. His batting and base
running have helped the pills to
more than one victory. He is quick
to take advantage of an opening. He
is q robust figure at the plate and
likely to break up q game at any
time.
Pat Moran doesn't care IL Me
hoff's real worth Is underestimated
by the fans and critics as long as he
continues to play the way he has
been doing.

ORDER TO ENLIST
TEN MORE MEN
Company L Instructed to Recruit to
War Strength Immediately
Last Chance to Join Home
Army Unit.

~ An order to recruit ten
aVEAs more men for Company L
~ was received this morning
by Captain Edward Chase
from Colonel BARLEY of the First
regiment. The company was recent
ly ordered to cease recruiting, but
as 1t still lacks ten men of being at
war strength, the order to renew the
recruiting campaign was given. The
present strength of the company is
140 enlisted men.
Orders to leave Keokuk may come
at any moment now and the ten
men wanted must be enlisted imme-
diately. The company is sending out
last call to young men OF the city
to show their patriotism by enlisting
with the home military unit so that
1t can leave here with honor at full
war strength. OF the 40 enlisted
men in the company, Keokuk has
given only 81, the rest of the recruits
being supplied by surrounding towns.
Guard enlistments here have not been
as plentiful as in other parts of the
state, but Keokuk now has a chance
to make UP for the past.
