The great record the West Virginia

HOW SISLER LEARNED
TO PLAY INITIAL BAG

pitching came natural to me;
batting, too; but I was positive
that first base would not be so
easy. I didn't ask many ques-
tious; simply watched the other
fellows in the league. I thought
if I could catch them with zone
hand like Stuffy McInnis I'd be
satisfied. I saw how Walter
Pipp shifted his feet and
stretched for yards, and I saw
how Chic Gandil went in the dirt
for the low throws.
McInnis, Pipp and Gandil
taught me how to play first base.

fact that none Of the big college

UNIQUE TRIPLE PLAY

That triple play in a recent
Cleveland-St. Louis game was
rather odd and deserves detail
ing. In the fourth inning, with
the bases full, Gerber hit fly to
Wood, on which Sisler scored
from third. Woods throw was
intercepted by Chapman, who
found Jacobson and Sloan wan
dering around off bases, and
both runners were retired, what
should have been one out thus
resulting in three.

hazafia indemnizadora y gloriosa. Des-
pues vino aquella semana tragica al
estallido de las bombas de dinamita,
al resplandor de las teas incendiarias
y al salvaje furor de asesinatos, robos
y profanaciones. Son sin duda algunos

Picnic at Fair Grounds.

Last Friday was Independence Day
and it was celebrated at several DIFF
ferenr places in Adair County. Here
in Columbia people gathered at the
Fair Grounds with the discharged SOL.
diers, and bountiful old time picnic
was spread. There were also several
patriotic addresses, DR.. P. W. Bushong
of Metcalfe county, being one of the
speakers. Rev. B. T. Watson, Of this
place, was master of ceremonies. DR..
Bushong's address was clothed in
choice language, and it was well re-
ceived. The day Throughout was de-
lightfully spent by all who were in
attendance. From the fair grounds
the crowd moved to the Lindsy- Wilson
Campus, and witnessed an interesting
game of base ball, the teams being
made up with soldiers upon one side
and civilians upon the other. The re-
suit was to in favor of the civilians.
1t is estimated the crowd in town
and at the Fair Grounds, was the
largest seen here since the days Of the
Fair. Notwithstanding the immense
crowd the order was exceptionally
good.
Since writing the above we learn
that the soldiers marched at the Fair
Grounds, about sixty in number.
Also that DR.. Bushong and colored
speaker of Louisville, spoke to the
colored soldiers on the BurkeSville
| pike.
