ROURKE SQUAD
TO PLAY SAINTS
after Days REST
League Leaders Open Series
at Rourke Park This
Afternoon; Rain Gives
Team Rest.

The rain prevented the last of the
Sioux City games on the local ball
lot and gave the Rourke players
much-needed rest. Today, weather
favorable, they will open a series
with the league leaders, St. Joseph.
Losing those two close games to the
Sioux crowd dropped the Rourkes in
the standing. but Manager Bill Jack
son has high hopes of cleaning the
series with the Josies and climbing
back up to their rightful position.
1t seems that Bill has some foun-
daton for his hopes. too, for Hem
mingway is able to get in the game
again and the entire team feels
risky. Besides this, he has two
more players, one or both of whom
he expects to report today. Hayes,
the Oklahoma City catcher, is now
the property of the local club, and
Lee. Sacramento Coast league star
outfelder. will join them today or
tomorrow.
Even this isn't all the favorable
conditions in Jackson's mind. Catch
er Hale, the player who recently un-
derwent an operation for appended
tbs, was in the stand day or SO ago
and watched the game with intense
interest. He says the doctors have
told him that he will be able to get
in the game within the next two
weeks.
Playing the kind of ball that they
have recently exhibited, and with
any sort of good breaks in the
games, Jackson really thinks he has
a chance of cleaning the entire series
with the Saints. If he can do it it
will bring them back up to the front,
and possibly in the van.
The teams will line up as follows
for today's game:

TESTAMENT story Of Noah or tho Car

licNc, especially when they also know
;hat the parishioncrs know the preach
crs do NOT believe those things them
selves.
Tho time has como when every
thinking Christian must recognize now
the prophetic minds OF the primitive
israo litcs Interpreted natural phenom-
people OF those times"
Dean Fry's protest against carrying
an Illusion TO Noah's Ark into the
service was followed by his declaration
that he did not believe there was any
historical truth in either the story OF
the flood or that of the creation OF
man as told in Genesis The charges
have created tremendous sensation
in the clerical world here.
