BILE infielder not making an errer in
any of the first nine games. He also
lead the league in hitting and in the
total bases, his batting average being
.47S. He was accordingly given the
berth.
Three candidates for the short field
position stood out above the others.
These three were Jarboe Grove, l.
jamsville; Wilhide, Mimaletown, and
Eddie Creeger, Thurmont. The three
were about equal as fhfielders but as
hitters, there was conserable differ
ence. Creeger had batting aver
age of .437, Wilhide of 1926, and
Grove of .235. The position was, ac-
cordingly, given to Creeger.
Two men fielded brilliantly ON
third base all season, Bruce LeGore,
Woodsboro and Page Gardner, Mid
dletown, The latter was weak with
the stick while LeGore hit the ball
for a grand average of .454.
Three men were considered for let
field. These men were J. Remsberg,
Middletown; Sam AMMAN, Emmits-
burg, and Leroy Barrick, Woodsboro.
All three proved to be wonderful out
fielders bnt the first two hit below
800 while Barrick is credited with be-
ing So times at bat, scoring Is runs
and making 25 hits, giving him an av-
erage of All. Being a wonderful lit
tie outfelder in the bargain he was
selected as guardian of the left gar
den.
Three men were also considered for
centerfeld: Albert Remsberg, Middle
town, C. Orrison, Brunswick, and Rob
ert Hopkins, New Market. The first
two are men who have been consider
ed hood material for the Blue Ridge
League. But in the county league it
self, there was little to choose between
them i'm the fielding line, all three be-

a little more ground than the other
two but had weak peg while Orrison

Such being the record of each with
the stick Hopkins would seem to have
a clear title to the selection especially
when hitting is so important a re-
quirement for an outfielder.
A. Orrison is plainly entitled to the
selection in right field since he mani
tested no weakness in the field and hit
the ball for percentage of .426 get
ting 23 hits out of Sd times at bat.
Although he was weak with the
stick during the greater part of the
season the work of Amman, Emmits-
burg, in left field was so brilliant as
to require recognition and he has ac-
cordingly been selected as utility
outfelder. A. Remsberg has also
been selected as a utility outfelder
because of his all-round ability.
In the infield the work of Cornelius
and r. Creeger was too good to be
ignored altogether and they have been
selected as utility infielders.
Lynn Smith has been selected as all
around utility man because of his "a
bility to pitch, catch, and to play the
infeld and outfield. He was valua-
BILE man generally.
Other players not mentioned but
who should not be dismissed without

BENJAMIN Franklin Versatile.

A large part Of Benjamin F -nklin's
repute, in the mind Of the layman, Is
due to the fact that he received bad
shock from key at the end Of kite,
and found Gut that lightning and cleo
tricity had something in common. As
matter of fact, he invented the
harmonica, advocated daylight saving,
and beside his numerous achievements
as a philosopher, publicist and patriot,
was the first to use bi-focal lenses. He
