Talk of League.
Gossip concerning the formation
OF a Philadelphia Twilight Baseball
League has been going the rounds

They figure that with ten Of recog-

During my II years in the major
leagues I have seen a number OF
unusual plays.
Il has been my good fortune to
witness triple and double plays IN
assisted. Likewise I have seen dou-
BILE plays made in many freak ways.
7 once saw Derrill Pratt, OF the
New York club. literally drop kick
a double play. He overran the baIl
slightly. and before he could get MS
hands down his right foot had come
into contact with the ball.
Derrill Pratt was with New York
A. the time. Roger Pecklnpaugh'
playing short for the Yankees. ran
over to second TO take the throw
as a man was on first at the time
and the hit and run was on.
Instead OF throwing the ball, how
ever. Pratt kicked It for a perfect
field goal into the waiting hands OF
Peskinpaugh as he stood on second
thereby forcing the runner at that
base A fast snappy throw TO hrst
retired the batsman.
It was a freak double play II there
ever was one. 1 will never forget H.
However. in a game at Philadel-
phia recently, saw a perfectly exc
cuted double play in which the
pitcher did most of the execution.
In all my career I have never seen
it's like. A description OF the play
will show its unusual features.
Detroit was the opposing team.
Lu Blue. the fleet first sacker Of the
Tigers, had reached the initial sack
Cobb was at the bat. He flashed the
hit and run sign, and Blue was OF
with the pitch.
Cobb dashed a sizzling grounder
between second and first. which Doc
Johnston. playing first for the Ath-
letlcs. barely grazed. Il slowed the
ball up a trine, however and de-
hected II in the direction OF Pep
Young at second. Now for the big
thrill OF the play;
Moore. from his pitching position
dashed over TO cover first base.
When Johnston merely grazed the
ball no play seemed possible, but
Moore continued on his way to first.
Young recovered the ball in shorto

last state fair. loving cup, blue ribbons
and white ribbons, all but the cash sums
and the honor that no fire, however dis
| astrous, may take away.
For six weeks The Journal has known
this great loss to Escambia county, but
because Of certain investigations which
were being carried on by County Agent
]. Lee Smith. could not divulge the news.
Mr.. Smith wished to report the loss to
Jacksonville. and receive some reply. be-
fore making know the loss to the gem
eral public.
Won Three Times.
Yesterday Mr. Smith received a letter
from b. X Hanafourd. secretary and
general manager OF the State Fair, In
which he expressed regret at the loss and
hope that Escambia would have an ex-
hibit at the next fair.
The cup was won three time by Es-
cambit-for two years consecutively-
having been presented to the State Fair
Association by the Chamber OF Commerce
OF Jacksonville.
Shown In Communities.
After having had the cup on display In
the window Of local store for several
days. Mr.. Smith conceived the idea OF
taking 1t to the various communities
which had had exceptionally good ex-
hibits and been specially cooperative in
the fair work.
The cup was exhibited at Cottage Hill
and Gonzalez, and then taken to Figland
Park, where It was placed on exhibit in
a store, which shortly afterwards was
burned to the ground, the cup burning
with It.
Found Melted silver.
Mr.. Smith stated yesterday afternoon
that he felt sure that the cup was not
taken from the store, as melted silver
was found among the ruins.
At the same time four blue ribbons,
one OF which was for the best county ex-
hibit. and several white ones, were
burned.
Winning Four Years.
Escambia has been winning first prizes
at the state fair for the past four years.

exhibits, and a number Of first, second
and third premiums for individual txhib-

Every year thereafter Escambia has
gone over to Jacksonville and brought
back first premium for county exhibit
last year winning sweepstakes.
The dates for the state fair this year
are November 1925. and it Is probable
that the county will have an exhibit there
and then. after adding to this, take it
down to the South Florida Fair in Feb
ruary.
