bag and set of brushes by the men,

game with Crisfeld time was called

Manager Herzogg in front of the
scorers bench and made the presen-
tation. Mr.. Hcrzogg was completely
surprised, and responded briefly.
In Mr. Shannahan's remarks he
possibly outlined the situation in
very clear and concise manner. He
said:
Gas President of the Easton Base
ball Club, l wish to congratulate you
on your success, since you took upon
yourself several weeks ago, the re-
sponsibility as Manager of our team
The job you undertook was a difficult
one and you have made a success
of it.
"Our position in games won and
lost prevents us from being a conten-
der for the Eastern Shore Pennant
this year. This, however, is but
part of the many angles to baseball.
"Your intelligent direction of the
players, your excellent field strategy,
and the splendid attitude of your
team both at home and abroad (some-
times under most trying conditions),
has established confidence on the
part of your board of directors and
the Baseball Public, which to my
mind is a compliment of highest char
acter.
"The loyalty Of the team to you,
and towards each other has been out
standing. AS director of their vari-
Gus interests, in this attitude they
have paid you an unspoken compli-
ment. They wish, however, to express
their regard and affection in a ma
terial way, and have asked me to
present for them, this token of their
confidence and esteem.
Manager Herzogg, on behalf of
the players on the Easton Baseball
Club, / present to you this beautifully
fitted travelling bag"
