PEPPY PRACTICE
Bunch of Players and Fans Met Yes.
terday to Try Out the Ball
IL. T. I.)

IL. L. 1.J
The first practice of the season took
place yesterday afternoon with more
pep than Mexican restaurant cook
puts in batch of hot tamales. Eleven
aspirants for the team were present
and dozen or more fans who desired
to see what was going on and wanted
to timber up their muscles little by
chasing balls for the team. President
Rose, Secretary Bryant and Execu-
tive Committeeman Walters were
present to see the first workout of
our new team.
Burrie Taylor had charge of the
practice and will run the playing of
the team this year. Burrie first had
the boys throw few and warm up
their arms. Some of the arms were
so stiff that they creaked and groaned
like pair of rusty hinges but the heat
of yesterdays sun and the work with
the ball soon began to timber them up.
When the arms were warmed up
Taylor called for batting practice. The
interested fans and some of the small
boys donned gloves and took the field
and for the next hour they were kept
busy racing after the grass cutters
and line drives that the batters were
polling to all corners of the park.
Taylor has learned to be ambidex-
trous and this year bats either right
or left-handed. He found that this
gave him great advantage over
pitchers and the first thing he did yes
terday afternoon was to put Jimmie
Liddell wise to this stunt and start
him batting left-handed. Jimmie
could always make a south paw feel
sick but right-hander had the ad-
vantage over James. At first Jimmie
could not touch the pill when he swung
left-handed but before long the crack
of the bat was followed by the yells
of the kids in the field as they ambled
back to center field fence for the ball.
Harry Wood. began this season by
driving the pill out along the left field
foul line. Not fan in Ocala but will
remember Harry's ability to deliver
the goods when they were needed.
Brooks was hitting them on the
head yesterday and seems to have his
batting eye early this season. Harris
hit well but then we always, expect
that of Frank He has the habit
Leavengood sent several to the tai
timber and caused the boys in the
field to need Ford to go after them
! Kirk Smith from the Commercial
Bank showed that he has been around
a ball team somewhere. His hitting
was free and strong and the way he
received the peg on second base wa:
good for sore eyes.
Hough of Dunnellon was up to try
for the team. Hough has reputation
for big things in the Florida State
League but cannot play organized bal
because it would keep him out of col
lege ball. Hough tried out behind the
bat yesterday and showed a good pes
to second and wonderful ability t.
nab foul flies. Hodges of Gainesville
and Hewett of Archer were both ou
for try. Both boys show pretty gooe
form.
