Billy Whiskers
By Frand 8 1reeo Montgomery.

How Ned raced home to tell his l mother to have a generous lunch 1 packed ready for him when the shrill 1 whistle blew that afternoon summon 1 ing the fortunate fourteen to the lake 1 shore! And how breathlessly he re- counted to his father the scene of | rejoicing among the fellows as he called the club boys, when he asked the camp master if he might take his Billy along. He confessed he expect ed a decided no for an answer, but the boys had made him promise that whenever he was chosen he would ask to have his goat over for the night. Every catp sailed high in the air as they heard the master say:
 "A goat in camp? Rather unusual.
 but if you'll promise to hold him tight so he won't capsi0e the boat, he can come.'
 You may be sure there were no !aggards in that camping squad. The
 whistle had not ceased to send back ;is echo before boys in blue sweaters with c B C across the chest had be- gun to gather about the boat. Each came with a blanket and a contribu- ton to the general food supply. Bundles were tossed about awaiting orders from the camp master. His word was law and though every heart beat high with the hope of be- ing appointed helper to Ned Dodge to manage the goat. nota word of discussion was heard.
 Jack, Jerry and Fred will occupy the middle of the boat with Ned to- day. They are the oldest and strong est and can hold Billy down. came fhe order, and before many more minutes the boat was being rapidly owed across the lake by a gasoline launch, often thus pressed into duty. On going over to and returning from camp three strict rules had to be clbeyed. First, no tipping or rocking of the boat; second, no leaning over he side to dabb1e in the water; and third. no changing of seats. This afternoon all the passens rs were too much interested in Billy to be tempt ed along these lines, and Billy him. self was too frightened to wiggle even 1is short tail. for it vas his first ride in so small a boat and the water seemed to him to -oe too near for comfort.
 The tug left them a hundredyards or so from shore, and oars did good service the rest of the way until the peblbly bottom was plainly seen. Two hoys pulled off shoes and stockings. jumped out and. wading in the water brought the boat up to the improvis- ed wharf
 Ned and Billy landed first and up the steps leading to the top of the bluff they hurried. hard pressed by the rest of the crowd. Two hundred feet or so back from the bluff and fifty feet above the waters edge stood the large tent used for sleeping pur- 2 oses. and near by was a place for the camp fire.
 The routine of the day was well known to the boys, who now stripped aand then hastened to the lake for plunge. Billy didn't care much for this part of the program, and spent he time in spying out the surround ing country.

When opportunity knocked
 MT. Murray socked.
 That being about the briefest way of telling that George Murray, young, Yankee pitcher, took time by the, pompad our when he got a chance in the box with the Yankees.
 A few days ago Bob Shawkey started against the Indians for the Tanks and was nicked for four runs in one and two-thirds innings beforej Manager Huggins decided he wasn'ts there. Then Murray got his chance He passed Iris Speaker first man to face him, and then retired the next man for the final out of the inning.
 Score was to then. When hi@s turn came to bat in the Tanks sec-1 ond two men were on. Murray drove a homer into a b1eacheritS's { bread basket. Which almost eveneds the score. Then he slammed out a l triple later in the game while a1- i? lowing the Indians three hits in the seven cantos he worked.
 Which is some boost for Charlotte, N. C., where George was born Sep~ tember 23. 1898. After starring four 1 years in baseball and football at i North Carolina State college, he re- l ceived his first pro tryout with Koch | ester in the International league last season. All he did was to win thir- teen and lose seven games while hur1ing 169 innings. Tanned eightyd and walked seventy-seven. Hit 1884 while doing it.
 Which shows that 1Tr. Murray has, ! faculty for stepping into the midst of things wftho out hesitation.
