RE. BASEBALL

The undersigned, for one would not
be in favor of two baseball teams to be
composed as the editor of THE MIRROR
suggests, one from Cell Hall A the other
from Cell Hall B and then play regular
scheduled games every other Saturday
throughout the season, the winners to play
the following Saturday with some team
from the outside. 1t is not my intention to
enter into any discussion or argument or
to advance any proposition whatever on
which the local baseball fans or players
themselves could adopt different views or
take different sides but shall try to con-
fine myself to few logical facts.
Fortunately, or rather unfortunately,
witnessed the introduction of baseball into
this institution. 1t was late in the year
before the grounds were ready and the
majority of the games played that year
were pulled off between two local teams.
Naturally the local fans went wild with
joy by being given the privilege of wit
Messing the National sport-baseball, re-
gardless of who played the game. How
ever, the interest that manifested itself in
the opening games between local talent
soon lost its sincerity and the players them
selves were clamoring for other fields to
conquer So late in the season through
the courtesy of the management few
games were played with outside teams, all
from Saltwater. These few games with
outside teams had wonderful inspiration
in reviving the baseball spirit here. With
the old interest in the game-born again,
the management promised that in the fu-
ture as many games as possible would be
played with outside teams This has been
adhered to with sweeping results.
In case one-half the ball season should
be consumed in playing with home talent
it would no doubt have a tendency to
cause some of the best playing talent to
remain in the background. 1t must be re-
n.embered that the best talent available
always represents the home team in games
of opposition against their visiting oppon
ents. If we have two teams, naturally
some of the best talent is eliminated from
the game when a visiting team comes.
This would never do. We want to pro-
duoe our best in the face of the enemy.
furthermore, the best talent that represented
the losing Cell Hall would become dis
couraged and retire from the game, caus-
ing the original home club to become de-
moralized, with the results of having
very poor team indeed. Prospects now
look good for Glass A team here this
coming season and 1 would not, for one,
uphold any proposition where at least a
part of the "stars" would be eliminated
from the game because they happened to
be playing with the losing Cell Hall.
Generally speaking l think l have
voiced the sentiments of all the baseball
fans and players here.

what "blOW-OH IS we had one. After
months of isolation in Llano Grande,
Brownsville proved welcome change.
Saloons did Aourishing business, as did
other local establishments. The streets
were flooded with soldiers, all with money
as we had just been paid.
The Second and Third Minnesota staged
their famous battle with the First, the last
night in Brownsville. To be recognized
as one of the Fighting First was to endan-
ger bodily well being and to call for
few geographical changes of individual
maps. We of the First had not the
slightest inkling that we were in for this
little attention on the part of our contem-
poraries of the khaki. But we were we'll
aware of it before long.
Small parties were waylaid, returning
from town and treated to the well-known
rough-house. Another B Company man
and were passing an alley, when young
army surrounded us, and demanded what
outfit we belonged to. Knowing that we
would be in for it if we said "First Min
nesota" we admitted that we belonged to
the Fourth Nebraska" Had one cagey
Third Minnesotan not thought of our
Identification tags we would have got
away with it, but as it was-well, my
companion broke away, and hit for camp
on high, and followed at equal speed as
soon as possible.
When 1 arrived in camp 1 met the fel-
lows from the company leaving for the
scene of action, armed to the teeth. There
had been other encounters, and some of
B Companys prides were in the hospital,
also men from other companies as the
grudge was against the entire regiment.
We were outnumbered two to one, hence
the arms, and we were in deadly earnest.
We had no ammunition but we had rifles
with bayonets that we knew how to use.
We secured the town, but failed to find
the enemy. While we were conducting
our search First contingent had clashed
with men from the Second and Third up
town; and the NJ. P.'s had been turned
out. Iowa and Kansas cavalrymen pitched
in to give the First hand as did the
Third U. S. (regulars). Before the night
was over our lumberjack and yokel
friends had received sound licking,
scientifically administered.
The last day before the return "trip the
entire division passed in review before the
area commander. After standing in line
from 8 a. m. until p. m. we passed the
reviewing stand, eyes to the front re-
ligiously until the crucial moment, then
collective glance at the one responsible for
all the atrocities we were compelled to
endure.
1t was on the return trip that we COW
cred forty-two miles in one day with full
packs. was in error when said, "sum-
mer day. however, as I recall now that
we reached camp at Llano Grande the day
before Thanksgiving.
l have many things to be thankful for.
One is that never again will have to live
on hardtack diet or lay on river bank
all night. Military bands may lure with
their martial strains, but they will lure
someone else if Mexico is the country to
be conquered. have lost all taste for
bacon and half-baked spuds, for arstocra-
tic shave-tails, deserts, and the long, long
trail. l am willing to rest on my laurels
and to reminisce on army days.

Noticing in our paper about the two base
ball teams for the season, also about the
ayes, but nothing about the hayes. Here
is one anyhow.
Having played baseball couple of sea-
sons at St. Cloud where they have three
teams of inmates would like to say that
the first few games are Okay but after
that the most of the boys get tired of see
ing the same teams in action and they
didn't know whether ball game was 60
ing on or not But we had an all star
team to play teams from the outside and
from the time the game started until the
last man was out the fans were on their
toes roofing all the way. With one team
you will see better baseball played than
with two teams. So here's for one good
team. c. j.. H.

COMPLAINS of Traffic Congestion Caus-

Chief of Police William G. Hart this
morning made complaint to the New
York, New Haven and Hartford rail
road officials of the unnecessarily pro-
longed blocking of the Main street
crossing last evening by a freight
train.
The crossing was blocked early in
the evening for y minutes, Chief
Hart says, and automobiles were lined
up onto Commercial street so thickly
that had there been a fire alarm, it
would have been almost impossible to
get the apparatus through the lines.
The police finally opened up a
passageway by diverting traffic by way
of Elm street. This morning Chief
Hart took the matter up with the
railroad officials and was informed
that the congestion resulted from poor
Judgment on the part of an employee.
Chief Hart made the request that con-
sistent efforts be made to keep this
crossing open and was assured of the
active cooperation of the company in
taking steps to avoid repetition of
similar troubles.
