CLUB HOUSE In
PRACTICE CAME
Moline Semi-PrOs Engage Robin
sons AlamOs, Negro Team, at
Three Eye Tomorrow.
TO BE HOT AND HUMOROUS
Clash Featuring One of Quad City
League Strongest COntenders
Should Be Entertaining.

Announcement comes from Cur
ley Anderson, manager of the Mo-
line Club House baseball team of
the Quad-City Semi-Pro league,
that his team will play it's first and
only preseason contest tomorrow
afternoon.
The P1ow City Three Eye park
is to be the scene of festivities,
while Robinson's Alamos, tri-city
colored stars, promise to make
competition keen. The game will
commence promptly at O'Clock.
The Club House-Alamo contest
will offer tri-city baseball fans their
first opportunity to size up mater
ia1 composing one of the strong
est contenders in the Quad-City
Semi-Pro circuit. The majority of
the members of the Pillow City nine
have just returned from military
service and tomorrow's clash will
be the first of like nature since
doffing the khaki.
Bring jazz Band.
. Robinson's Alamos claim the tri-
city cOlored baseball championship
and have been organized several
years. The dark hued warriors
promise to bring with them a syn
copating jazz band, but it is doubt
full if Manager Anderson will per-
NIT this without contest. The
dusky boys might be SO inspired
by that jazz stuff that we don't
have a chance" argues Curley.
Among those who will represent
the Club House tomorrow: Pitch
ers, Gregg, Hughes; catchers,
Woodyatt, Volkman, Killian; first
basemen, Swanson and Wigers;
second base, Dewitte; shortstop,
Peanuts Swanson, Hepburn; third

Hold Eller led the Cinci fingers
last season and caused much talk.
he was bothered by a lame shout
der early last season. Moran be-
lieves he has solved the reason for
that and has taught Eller a new
and freer delivery.
Christy Mathewson saw promises
of a great southpaw in Rueter las.
spring and coached him in earnest.
Gerber is a conner.
Moran says frankly he is salts
fed with his infie.1. outfield and
catching staff Which means that
all three sections must be in good
shape.
The success of Moran in his first
season cannot be force of course

One thing that gives us faith in
Pat Morans ability to collect and
maintain a regular winning ball
club in Cincinnati is the fact that
apparently he has convinced Gin
cinnatians that they need not ex-
pect him to promise or produce a

In fact Pat is making no prom
ises.
But he already has won the back
ing of the Cinci fans-we refuse to
call them Red fans any more-by
