He was invincible and many a

at tho ball before being called out.
Kramer. who makes a speciality of
selling rural properties. has missed
his calling. He played a wonder
full game at first base. He was also

Jay Probst worked like a veteran

was started and completed through
his rapid handling Of the ball. Bar

tors. also found time to umpire be-
sides covering his position in error

Two other towers Of strength for
the realtors were Jones In right
field and Baker in left. They han
died all their chances without n
bobblel and figured strongly in the
runs made by the realtors.
While believing that the ~lot-sell-
ing crew is too strong for his gang.
Manager Daily is anxious for a re-
turn game al an early date so hat
his teammates may learn something
about inside baseball as diviulsed by
their opponents Of last evening.
Russell Finch. who hurled for the
scribes. Manager Tom Daily who
played second, Earl Hanway who
caught and Tommy Gilroy. who
played at first. played stellar
games for the printers. Other mem
bers OF the team were oftimes weak

There is nothing to do but accept
defeat gracefully, says Ton, Daily.

Disguised as real estate men, n
group OF big league stars assailed
The Tribune ball team yesterday
evening and after the smoke OF
battle cleared away it was found
that the score was 10 to 6 In favor
OF the lot peddlcrs.
Fresh. in fact too fresh. from a
recent string OF victories The Trib-
une FASTENERS were attacked aud
beaten before they realized that
they were up against a ball team
that ~outclassed anything they had
seen in action before.
Fortunately for the news hounds
and printers the game was limited
TO five innings. for there is no tell
irs what the soil pushers would
have accomplished in the way OF
scoring had it not been for the short
session. Crafty Tom Daily. man
aGer Of the scr!bes, now under
stands why a. r. Nesbitt. in real
life. dominating influence in the 4.
=. Nesbitt Realty company. was so
anxious to have II at least a seven
inning game.
M the unkind things which Tho
iTAbuHt EdS neFU HnoollnB al the
real estate men are hereby re-
tracted. When they started hitting
the ball and moving around the
bases Tom Daily and his crew
thought hat all the real estate me-
in the world were migrating
through Casper.
There were homcrun clouts. three
haggers, doubles and singles galore.
The keen eyes which the real estate
men have for fair ground kept the
scribes busy cavortinE from ono end
of the field to the other chasing the
elusive pellets which had been hit.
Take Cy Bon. for instance. He
played with an injured hand. spear
ing hard hit balls In center field
and conducting n wreckiug cam
paign when at the hat. Tom Daily
said thank goodness his hand
wasn't all right or no telling what
he would have done with the bail.
Tho aforementioned Mr.. Nesbitt
presided behind the bat. He arrived
at the grounds late. the realty deal
ers apparently desiring 10 keep this
star under cover until the time for
the game.

year. The former record made by
o'Connor stood since August 3. 1901.
which is Just two weeks short of 20
years.
1t is a strange coincidence hat the
two greatest broad jumpers OF the
last three years have been negroes.
Sol Butler was another famous broad
jumper and at the inter-allied games
at Paris in 1919 this negro got in ain
official jump Of "a feet 1lL inches,
Just a an incl behind the world
mari held by o'Connor. Both Gour-
din and Butler are wonderful all
round athletes and both are good at n
number OF other events besides their
broad jumping. Quite naturally they
have phenomenal speed on the flat
and both can run the hundred and
furlong in close TO even time. while
