 Four perfectly good rainstorms broke up as many major league ball games Friday afternoon. A superfluity of raindrops canceled the Pirate~Card struggle at St. Louis, the water wagon invaded Zealand and halted hostilities there. it was too damp in CleVe- land for the Indian-Tiger attrac- tion and at the nations capital the Senators and Yankees were kept idle by rain.

Sounds rather odd for game to be called on account of a cold wave, yet Mike Mcintyre of the St. Paul Press told me while the Saints were through here this spring that the Saints and Brew CTS opened in Milwaukee last year, and that half inch snow fell during the game.

Ruth and Huggins and Bob Meusel and Huggins and Carl Mays and Huggins got along like cats and dogs, according to the press reports. Yet, m spite of these rumors the little manager managed to keep his temper and put the Highlandcrs through to a pennant.

Either that or Nays would quit the team. Neither occurred. And the very second day of the season we see Carlo going out to the mound with his submarine special and holding the Washington Senator's to six hits.
