ABOUT PAUERS-MACKS

| To The Intetligenccr Sporting Editor:
Being an ardent baseball fan OF
Wheeling. have read several items Of
| the controversy between the Bauers and
F! McConkcy baseball clubs. After constd-
cring the merits Of both sides fail to
sec where Manager McConkcy can have
any objection toward playing the cham
ptonship series tf sucht of the valley
at League park. After witnessing the
game at Tunnel Green last Friday, any
player or fan can readily sec the many
disadvantages for the players and spec
tators. For example. the fans, includ-
ing children. are constantly in danger.
Time and again small tots as we'll as

ordinance adequate TO cover the stu
alton that is apt to arise.
You see Chcagoians remember the
calls TO Cincinnati fandom to rise and
heckle the Giants that were written by
Cincy's sport scribcs when the Giants
and McGraw were in Redland for a
crucial series in August.
The Chicagoian is a rough guy. He
has been brought up on battles Of the
Loop Hounds and race riots and all sorts
Of stuff. But nevertheless he is a bit
chary over facing the Cincinnatian in
his native lair.
In a baseball sense Cincinnati has
always been sucker town. and William

no fury like that on an Infatuated suck
