Last summer when Herb Barnes
and Sandy Toothman came out for the
West Virginfan baseball team some
wise bird dubbed them Adam and Eve,
end the name has stuck. Taken one
al a tune. one is at a loss as to how
to address them for neither Sandy
Toothman nor Herb barnes, nor the
guy who coined the phrase has ever
admitted or Unlimited which one of
the pair is Eve iIuI when you see
these two fellows together 1t Is safe
to say Adam and Eve. However,
what we startrcd out to say is that If
Herbr Barnes is Eve, that famous
lady and the sporting editor OF this
paper mad quite an interesting confab
on baseball yesterday, and If Sandy
Toothman is Eve then Adam and the
sportr ed were out last night
Adam or Eve Barnes stated last
night that there is every reason to be.
leve that this will be one of the big
gest seasons in the history of the base
ball game in Fairmnt, and that the
city league should have wonderfully
successful year, providing It is started
out rigrt. A. or 3. Barnes proclaim-
ed that there should not be any mix
ing up OF the city and county teams
into, one league for such action would
assuredly bring disastrous results. He
is for a city league and county league

world or that section of the world
embraced by Marion county.
Another thing a or e thinks should
De set right is the matter of the price
OF admission to the city league games,
iIhere are some who are for raising the
price from 10 cents as 1t was last wear
TO 20 cents on account of the high
price of garlic In Tamauqua, Pa, or
for some equally cogent reason. To
this idea or makes strong objection
inc games are played for fun mostly
and to clear little money over and
above expenses, this money to be ex-
pended for n banquet, for the Y. ri.
9. A. and The Times Xmas fund and
Ike things, There are some this wear
in the league who want the players to
share in the gate receipts. Adam or
Eve says to raise the price and split
the gate with the players will smash
the league, and we are inclined to be-
ifeve that such statement is yeS7
close 10 the truth. The people are
glad to pay ten cents to see the games
and know that the money is going to
the Y. M. G. A. for the expenses of
the league, for little party at the
end Of the season and for some worthy
charity, but If the price is to be raised
and the players split the gate receipts
with the Y. NJ. c. A., then the public
is going to say that the whole affair
has taken on professional aspect
and to some extent at least withdraw
their interest and support. There is
no need for raise in price, in view
of the fact that the league made a
good sum Of money over and above,
expenses last year at the small admis-
sion fe of one thin dime.
Last but not least Adam or Eve
Barnes says he doesn't give a whack
whom he gets to play with next sum.
mer Just so he gets chance to be
on one of the teams in the league and
gets a little exercise and fun out OF
the diamond sport. Harvey Paist
wants to enter team in the league
called "Harveys." A or e says he
will play for that team If Harvey
wants him to and wear big "a Place
TO Eat Sign" on the back and front
of his uniform If need be.

Some Local Sport Chatter

The Charleston Gazette makes the
following brief yet pointed comment
anent the row at Morgantown over
the football games scheduled on neu-
trail fields:
THE alleged disturbance at Nor
gantown concerning the playing OF a
football game annually in Charleston
with Washington and Lee has several
aspects that are worthy of consfdera-
ton. In the first place, the mere play
ing OF game on neutral grounds, or
even two such games, If we consider
the game with Wesleyan at Fairmont
also, does not, in our humble opinion
tend to make 'hippodrome' of the
state university eleven. This Is max
Ing mountain out of mole-hiIl.
There is no reason why university
representing the whole state should
hold all of its athletic contests In one
very restricted section of the state. In
point Of view of population, import
ance, and everything else the south.
ern part of the state, and especially
the district around Charleston and
Huntington, is equally II not more i'm.
poftant than the northwestern. This
district should have the privilege of
seeing its state university play at
least one game year,-that is, II the
authorities, as we believe they do.
wish to make the institution at Nor
gantown a truly representative state
institution. The argument formerly
used, namely that Charleston had no
facilities for handling football crowd,
has been met by tie construction of
Laidley Field, which upon completion
Will be the best athletic field In the
state" '.e
Huntington High school has HAD a
very successful season thus far win
ming every game and taking the U. S.
Naval Ordnance team into camp re-
Gently, although the Huntington lads
were outweighed. Carter and Brown
are steady guards, while McVay and
Stuart hand.s the forward positions
well. Fry at center is a little inexperi-
enced but coming along fast. Hunt
ington has game scheduled with
Clarks5urg, which may be called of on
account of certain eligibility disputes,
Harry c. Wilson is athletic director
at the institution.
