Giant Pitchers


FTNHE opinion has been offered freely in
i polite baseball circles that while the
Giants can well hold up their end of the
debate in a batting and a fielding way, they
lack world series pitching strength to stop
either the White Sox or Red Sox
The three leading Giant pitchers via the
records. are left-handers They are Ben
ton, Sallee and Schupp. Back of this trio
come Perritt and Tesreau, the main right
handed strength.
This group may not be the stoutest as
sembled but neither is it weak. -Four of
the five are veterans The other, Schupp, has
now had two fine years, and in his first
world series game would be hard man to
beat. The staff, as whole could hardly
produce the world series effectiveness of
Ruth Shore and Leonard as they worked
the last two world series. But it has suff-
cient stuff to maintain good defense-a

everyone would have delightful
time at the party dance given in
the Guy hotel dining room by Mrs.
G. S. Porter and Dan Guy. The
occasion was in honor of Miss May
Kirtley. The invitations were is
sued early in the week and the
goodly number present gave evil

were sent in.
An orchestra made up of Mrs
McCrea, Walter and Harold Thorn.
as and G. G. Oldfield played for the
dance and the music was good.
The decorations of pink crepe
tissue paper ribbons and evergreens
gave the room quite a festive ap

counted thirty-one saloons before
he got back to his hotel without
the crackers. Indianapolis is not

Install New Safe

The Farmers Bank now has new
burglar proof safe in its vault. 1t
is the latest type and is made of
Manganese steel. 1t is said to be
impossible to elbow a safe of this
type as the door fits so closely there
is no chance to pour nitro glycerine
into the crack. The steel is so
hard that it would take long time
to bore a hole in the wall of the
safe deep enough to help open it.
There are three clocks in the
door that operate the time lock. If
one or even two of the clocks stop
the other one can still work the
time lock. 1t isn't very large but
weighs 24O0 pounds. The cash anC
notes of the bank will be kept in it
