.N7HAh TEAM IS
winner SATURDAY
In Slow Game Local Team
Defeats Como M. E. Ag-
sregation OF
Columbus
(By Glenn Sparks)

. In slow and disinteresting game,
the local Knights of Pythias baseball
team defeated the Como M. E. church
Of Columbus at Athletic park Satur-
day afternoon by the score of is to
IA.
The visitors, who are the class A
champions Of the capitol city got away
to an early after the locals had scored
one run in the first inning and at one
time were leading by a score of eight
to one.
Tanner, who started for the locals,
in the box, had difficulty in getting
the ball where he wanted it and when
he did find the plate the visitors land
ed on his delivery for number of
Texas Leaguers." several of which
should have been fielded much better
and with more speed than they were.
Davy Jones, who finished the twerling
for the home team was more steady
and the team tightened up behind
him, according him much better sup
port than they had his predecessor.
It seemed from the start that both
teams lacked the necessary pep" to
put on a real ball game and the errors
were nearly as numerous as the hits
and runs. The visitors were forced
to use three pitchers. For Columbus,
the center fielder of that team, turned
in two fancy catches Of high flys af-
ter hard runs. BeemanT for the locals
made some pretty plays and ended
the game by scoring two runs on his
second two Dagger of the game after
two men were out.
The visitors were hard losers and
claimed that Mt. Vernon teams were
always favored on close decisions, of
which there were several in Satur.
days game, but when challenged by
Manager Hall for game on their own
grounds with any umpire they wished,
they were unable TO say whether they
wanted to try 1t or not.

Mrs, Catherine Roster, acquitted Fri.

Oscar Roster, advertising man. and

Mrs. Sue Reid, her mother. said TO-.
day at the Roster home, 2j Kent road.

away with friends yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Reid Is caring for Richard. hrs.
Rosters year.old son, and Oscar, Jr.,
The older son by the first wife. Mrs.
Reid refused to sny where her daughter
had gone. Neighbors said they believed
che would spend the winter In Florida.
Mrs. Roster has received q $500 a
week offer to 20 into vaudeville. and
has refused It. according to John Il. X.
Now that ali the charges against
Mfs. Roster have been drowned. the
next move Of her counsel will be to
try to get her portion Of the estate OF
Oscar Roster.
To Fisht for Estate
Every effort will be made by the at:
torneys to deprive Arthur Roster OF
any share Of his brothers estate.
On his deathbed In the Jefferson Hos
pitai Oscar Roster made a will In the
notebook Of I. Bib Tolins. his partner.
The attorneys contend that this will Ia
not legal en- the face Of It, in view
Of the fact that he excluded his wife
and baby and left everything to his
brother, Arthur. and his son by his
6rst wife. Junior.
The attorneys have already filed a
caveat protesting against the probate
OF the will on the grounds that 1t is not
legal, and a decision Is expected from
the Register of Wills Of Delaware
County by the end Of the month. -.
Should the deathbed will be declared
invalid It would be the same as II
Oscar Roster had died intestate. Mrs.
Roster would be given her dover right
and the remainder be divided among
the children, Should Mr.. Scott lose
his fight to have the will knocked out.
Mrs. Roster will get her legal share
anyhow, while the other will 60 to
Arthur and Junior, leaving nothing for
Baby Richard.
Approximate Value $50, 900
The estate is valued at approximately
600, 600, Of which almost $27, 900 IL
tied up In litigation. There is some
argument over the insurance policies Of
the dead man. which provide double
indemnity for accidental death. The
insurance companies insist that the
death was not accidental, while Mr.
Scott contends. inasmuch as Mrs. Ro.
sicr was adjudged insane at the time
Of the shooting, 1t was accidental.
