The bases were ''lit up" quite
often during Mondays Gas Co.
Pennsy fracas. The gas men did 1T
lie OF the lighting however. the
honors going to the SOS" Win
thrup's clan.
Traction co. gave the Trumplets
a rude shock. when they left the
latter on he lean end OF a ga score.
The Demosse lads sure are live
wires Al the bat. Their twelve safe
ties from the slants OF Joe Tobin
should give them the respect OF all
twirlers in the Industrial circuit.
Grier's American Car team clout-
ed its way out OF obscurity, when Il
leaned on the shoots OF Bonds
prching aces for seventeen safe
| bingles.
The car builders catcher-manag-
er says his team Is now an actual
remnant contender and his heavy
hitting proteges will give no quarter
TO any pitching stan in the league.
Somebody page Shanner.
DuPont's Infallible Powder team
was the victim OF an explosion on
Monday. Said blow-up being due TO
conclusion caused by eleven rapid
fire hits from the bats OF Rhoads
I beltmen.
The BulIen twins" were surely
] "pullin' hard" for Wilcken's Rhoad-
nngs. While Walter was holding
the dupont lads at bay. his short
stopping brother banged out three
snappy hits to help clinch the VIC
tory.
Dave" Zearfoss' rejuvenated Gas
nine made bang-up showing
against the speedy Pennsy nine at
Pennsy Stadium. Outside two bad
innings when the ran men punched |
their hits and showed across four
runs in each. the game was as clev-
er an exhibition OF the national pas
time as local fans could ask for.
We always knew that Bill Lang |
was a player OF many parts, but this |
sudden elevation TO the pitching |
mound Is about tho limit. Bill has |
now Joined the class OF baseball /
super-utility immortals along with /
Johnny" Cole. Cole tried the same /
stunt as bill pulled on against
Trump last week, but started too /
late in the game.
We've been trying 90 hnd out who 1
ohiciates with the score book for
Rhoads. The box score summary /
shows James hitting one for the
circuit, while the hit column shows
cipher annexed TO Beltmaker's
third-sacker. In the name OF
Judge Lands. II a home run isn't a
hit. what is it2
Sharp OF the American Car IS
making a herculean attempt TO out
do either Rogers Hornsby or Ken
williams Eve couldn't find out
which,. He has batting eye TO
match his name. as is evidenced by
his contribution OF hits in the VIC
tory over Bond. A homer. a double.
and a triple was all that sharpe"
could accomplish in FIVE trips to the
rubber.
Floyd Rust Of the Gas co. has re-
signed his managership on account
OF outside interests. The Gasmen
are loath to see Rust go as he was
in organizing the light
team as we'll as the Indus
trial League. Dave Zearfoss has
been acclaimed new pilot for the
team and has accepted the post
along with his Job as tutor.
Manager Brannigan OF Bond says
his boys are not bit disappointed /
over their recent defeat by Grier's /
team. IF we had TO be beaten" |
says Brannigan, I'm glad It was by |
American Car. They sure needed to |
win.
NO one is going 10 travel over
Rhoads now" Manager Wilckens |
was heard to say after the dupont |
Rhoads fracas. when they come
our team, they detour.
Babe" Flynn. Pennsy's stellar
third-sacker is there with the big |
stick and cavorts around the hot /
corner like a big Lacquer. But old |
man avoirdupois certainly Is slowing 4
him up on the base paths.
why don't you take up tennis
and reduce. Babe" said Manager
Winthrup. Oh sos" replied the
Bambino, have a heart"
