the second game OF our career In the
Chicago minor city league and as yet
We have not run UP against anything IN

assistance, that's going some. "Pinky"
was going SO fast when no caught he
ball that he did not have time to change
the gears, so he kept her in high until
he tagged second base. All of our boys
are playing right up to the percentage
of the team. which is 1000 per cent. The

''FLU'' PATIENT ESCAPES FROM
 NEW HOSPITAL
Man Sees Another Die; Then
 Leaps from Building; Guards Fire; Mystery Sur rounds Conduct of Officers

Seeing a man die of Spanish influ- enza in a bed nearby, Panco Morino of the White Farm, near Phoenix, leaped from his bed while his temperature was over 100 and fled, followed by several guards placed there to guard prisoners from the county jail. The guards fired several shots and chased Morino two blocks when he disap- peared in an alley. Morino had on only a night gown. At an early hour this morning he had not been captured.
 Morino, his wife and five children were taken to the emergency hospital earlier in the evening for treatment for Spanish influenza. Morino had been told, according to information fur nished by the night man in the emer- gency hospital office, that two men had died in the bed in which he had been placed and that it was believed he had become "spooky." Then when man died near him he became so frightened that he fled.
 There was considerable comment and reported bad feeling between the guards at the emergency hospital, said to be deputiZed by the county, and the police department, because the man with Spanish influenza had escaped.
 It was reported from the hospital that the matter of the escape had been reported immediately to the police de- partment, where Ed Ellis was in charge as desk sergeant The guards said that they first thought Morino was a prisoner from the county jail who was escaping and that when they found he was not a prisoner patient but regular patient they felt it was not their duty but that of the police | department to continue the search for | Morino
 Night County Jailer Joe Balsz when asked if anyobdy from the sheriffs of l ffice was searching for Morino he said mo-" that they had been out, but were not out at that time." It was about 30 o'clock when he made the | statement.
 The police department was asked at about the same time if Morino had been captured and the reply was that the emergency hospital had told them not to look any longer"
 The emergency hospital was then called up and the office man said he had heard nothing of any such order l Oi ltqutSl
 Jerry Sullivan, who is a guard at the emergency hospital, called The Re publican to give his version of the es- cape of Morino and subsequent mys- terious happenings and right in the middle of the conversation over the phone somebody else at the emergency hospital slammed down the receiver where Sullivan was talking with such violence as to knock The Republican S telephone out of commission.
 Later a man, whose name is with held, appeared at The Republican of flee, to explain that Sullivan had not been permitted to tell his story. He also said that Sullivan had called UT the police department to ascertain why the police were not making any effort to capture Morno and that police head quarters had insulted him and rung off, refusing to answer any questions
