Barrett Helps F'leisher
The announcement made Yesterday =
that Bill Barrett had been signed by
the Fleisher Warmers should put the
dOwntowners very much in the running
for the championship OF the Philadel
phia Baseball Association.
When Tom Walker started the season
he had Bill McKcnty and Bill Cries
ha6er and several others. Things
looked rosy. but the weather for one
thing has been against his team and
they also have met with injuries.
w The Iarners, as a result. have not
won with the consistency expected. but
the acquisition of Barrett makes them
appear one of the strongest of the local
teams.
Barrett may pitch against Brides
burg Mt Twenty sixth and Reed to-
morrow. The former Mackman was
with Ford 4 Kcndig. but that team
disbandcd when Manager Bonner. Of
the Highland Park Club. was notified
by the Commissioners of Delaware

hibited in the future there.
