outside the veteran pair to deliver.
George Robe, substitute third
baseman for the White Sox,
joined the team at the tail end of
the 1905 season, playing as substi--
tute at intervals during 1906.
Ordinarily a weak hitter, Robe in
the 1906 world series. pounded
out a triple in the fifth inning Of
the first game that enabled the
White Sox to win 2 to /, and put
him on the hot corner regularly for
the balance of the series. Again in
the third game Robe came up with
the bases full in the sixth. King,
the Cub catcher warned him as he
approached that he needn't expect
another straight high ball the kind
he had soaked two days before.
Robe hunched that King was try
ing to work him for a first strike.
He was right. The first ball was
straight and Highland Robe pound
ed it to the right field wall for his
second triple of the series cleaning
the bases and sewing up the game
for the Sox.
George Whiteman, a veteran
player who spent years in obscure
minor leagues and who begged in
vain for his chance in the big show,
finally got it in 1918. too late in life
to be of great advantage TO him.
Whiteman thrown into the Red
Sox-Cub battle of 1918 because OF
Boston's short handedness, proved
the hero of the series.
He won the first game with his
hitting, getting two of Boston's five
bingles. In the third game he
robbed Dode Paskert of what was
ticketed for a home run, by a seem
ingly impossible catch. In the fifth
his perfect throw to the plate from
left field cut off Hollocher with
Cub run. And in the eighth inning
of the eighth game with Boston

MILTON, Fla, March 15.-Paving
of Milton streets is now under way
and, from all indicatio the work
will be completed within a very short
time. The cement curbing has already
been laid. Some streets will have to be
graded down several feet. Huge piles
of brick have been deposited along
the streets to be paved and cement
mixers have been placed at convent
ent intervals, so that the actual paw
ing will proceed smoothly. At present
only the streets in the business dis
trict will be paved, but the work will
soon be extended to many other parts.
The streets now under the process of
paving are Elmira, Grace and Willing.
Messrs. Roller and Goodspeed are in
charge of this work, and under their
supervision speedy results are ex-
pected.
C. E. SudmaI, manager of the Gulf

The road between Bagdad and Mil
