HITTING CATCHER
Of De MOLAYS IS
PICK Of JUDGES
Rabel Gordon Kelly and
GrIgg8 Outstanding in
TryOuts Sunday.

- Todd Wilbur. catcher Of the De Mo-
lays, was the choice OF the judges
at Washington Park Sunday morning
in the tryouts for the city's best anna
.teur baseball player in the contest
conducted by The Times. He is a
splendid receiver with a strong arm
and at the bat showed the best form
cf any of the contestants. Wilbur
VIII go 10 Cleveland Oct l to partic-
ipate in the national amateur tourney
before big league scouts, managers
and players.
Hal Griggs, Butler star, entered by
the AII-Collegian team, was consid-
cred favorably by the judges, but in
vestlgation disclosed that Griggs
would not be able to get away from
football as Butler plays Franklin on
Oct. 6 and the following week. Oct.
10, is at Illinois.
Players Show Class
A number Of the contestants showed
great form in the tryouts and the
Judges had a good word for several
sandlotters. Manager Hendricks of
the Indians. Captain Sticking. Eddie
Brown, Ernie Kruger. Leo Dixon,
Ray Murphy, representing the City
Amateur Association, and George
WeIlbaum of the Chamber of Com
merce, picked the following players as
outstanding: Todd Wilbur, catcher;
Albert Rabe. infeld: Hank Gordon,
fnfeld; Joe Kelly, inf1eld. Griggs, out
field, was also in tn elist, but had to
be dropped.
Twenty-elght players were origi-
nally nominated as the pick of the
amateurs by the various team mana
gers. This bunch was cut down to
sixteen and the outstanding perform
ers were selected as given above.
AHROund Tryouts
In the trials the infelders were
put through their PAGES under the
scrutinizing glances Of the judges with
Leo Dixon hitting the ball around
Then the outf1elders We're given a
chance TO show how they could Judge
a fly ball and their arms were tested
BY throws TO the plate. Running and
batting practices were INDUCED in as
TIE final tests.
The players were weeded down to
Wilbur, Rabe. Gordon and Kelly, with
Griggs also included as a very strong
contender. Coach Page Of Butler was
communicated with and asked If
Griggs could leave college for three
days in case he was chosen. Page
said no. and that eliminated Hal
from the running. He displayed fine
speed, a strong throwing arm and he
felded well. At the bat he was fair.
Rabe Looked Good
Rabe looked mighty good in his
work at third and knows how to
handle himself on the hot corner. He
has the build and natural ability to
make a real player. He looks them
over well at the plate, but hasn't
free swing.
Hank Gordon, who played second
in the infield workouts, also is
promising player.
Joe Kelly was one of the youngest
entries and he showed surprising form
at short. He lacks the confidence
that will come with experience and
Is rather slow on the bases in spite
of the fact that he seems to get
around in good style at short. He
throws Ike a bullet.
a number of the others showed
class. but some weakness kept them
out Of the running.
The Times will stand Wilbur's ex-
penses to Cleveland, Oct. l, 2 and 8.
Tie winner at Cleveland will get
free trip TO the worlds series.

TRIBE PRODUCES
SHORT Squirt IN
WEEKEND GAMES
Indians Win Three Out Of
Four SChmutte Proves
He's Likely Prospect,

The Senators again today. 1t was
the third game Of the series between
Molesworth's crew and the Indians
at Washington Park.
The teams divided Sundays double
header. the Tribesmen coping the
first affair, to 1, behind the brilliant
pitching of Burwell. The Senators
annexed the second fracas, to 6.
The last half of the ninth inning
of the second fray was played as
darkness crept over the field, but
the umpires insisted on the game be-
ing played out.
Tough on Batters
If the umpires had been forced to
stand up to the plate and bat they
probably would have halted proceed
ings at the end Of the eighth. 1t was
too dark for baseball in the ninth in
ming, especially the final half.
Pitcher Johnny Schmutte. local
sandlotter. made his A A. debut in
the second contest, and made a good
and was taken out in the seventh
after he had hit the first man and the
second had singled.
Lack of control bothered Schmutte,
but otherwise his work was very
creditable. The Senators found Johnny
for only five hits in six innings and
the score was to 2 in his favor when
he retired. He struck out one, hit
two and walked nine.
Senators Work" on Him
Due to nervousness and to the fact
that the visitors tried every trick to
get his goat. Johnny was unsettled
with men on bases.
Manager Hendricks and the fans
voted Schmutte a good prospect and
his many Riverside supporters pres
ent were we'll pleased with his league
start.
The Indians won three games over
the week end and crept into sixth
place They beat the Toledo Hens
twice Saturday.

AROUND THE CITY
By Mamie Lancaster

understand, but not a prodigy like
| her little brother. Bear in mind, that
boy won't be fifteen until his next
| Birthday
There was sudden lurch forward
| md an outward pour of men and
| women from side exit. and that
| ended it, except that the two
| stranger men chummed in together.
Which might have been the begin
ning of friendship. And friend is
always worth while.
= X ! !:
A TINY boy in a comfy red sweater
over baby knickers had found a
broken top that some other boy must
have thrown away. The bright tin
stripes. battered into useIessness
proved a joyous find-you could tell
by the way he rushed a passing man
to ask him to ''p ease make it 'pin''--
He must have been a man of affairs
he showed for it in walk. expression
and dress. And he had no time to
waste on foolishness. Still, he slowed
up long enough to make a remark:
Throw that thing in the street
how do you suppose l am going to
| make a broken top spin?"
Wine it wiv key explained the
tiny chap.
Perhaps he was an unfortunate
man who knew more about affairs
than he did of little children, for he
just grunted and walked out of the
incident. Perhaps, again. he might
have been bit sorry had he hap
pened to turn and see the child study
ing the top in it's outstretched hand.
1t isn't what you could call an
achievement to put quiver on a
baby's lips. but. anyhow, 1t was all
right. for:
Along came the odd job man who
works in the neiehborhood. and who
turned out to be an intimate friend
OF the veIy small boy. He was such
an old odd job man that his hair was
the kinky gray of chinchilla. and he
pushed his little cart with slowness
that suggested that his Father Time
had given him stiff tints. but that
made no difference whatever, seeing
that he still kept childhood in his
heart
"Lemme take a look at this here
matter with this top, Benny. You
foun' 1t in the street. didn't you?
Huh. huh, l know you did, becawse
santa Clawse drapped it there to
mind you that he swine put fine
new top in your Stockin' come Christ
mas. Gimme that old tin, honey
Did Santa tell you what kind of
top he's eoin' TO give me" An will
1t have stripes like this. an key to
wine it up?'
The odd job man considered a
careful answer-in keeping with any
10-cent counter top that might be in
his mind:
"It mout be blue with red stripes
runnin' erroun' It. Then agin, it
nout be yaller an pale pupple-but
1t bounter have a key"
And by that time the small boy
who was Benny had forgotten the
broken top and the man of affairs
who had brought the CULVER to his
ltps-and that was all there was to
it, unless
Unless it be truly true that all
things are remembered. and all
things written down.

CAN'T TELL If
COTTON FIELD
INFECTED YET

B. A. Harrigan, county horticul-
tural commissioner, returned last
night from Yuma, where in com
pany with b. Urbans, etomologist OF
the state department of agriculture,
he made survey of the cotton
planted by .. w. Jones and Alfred
Way, from seed alleged to have
been brought in from an Oklahoma
district infested with boil weevil.
Little can be determined about
the presence of the pest at present,
according to Harrigan, and close
watch will be kept on the field for
any trace of weevil. Urbans advis-
ed that the weevil might not show
up for several years, or it might
be present in such small way as
to be unnoticeable.
Way and Jones are now await
ing a hearing next week on a charge
of importing seed without having
it inspected by the horticultural

be stronger this year.

That this fruit is better than
that of last year is an item which
will be of interest to valleyites who

Dolan states that according to
test the sugar content is higher and
the skin smoother that that of last
year S crop.
This is the tirst season that this
