Ray is a veteran of many campaigns but baseball is not his only forte He admits himself that he is a star on the pool table, though if one were to ask Hum mer" Daly or Artie Pilz about that they might figure that Ray was talk ing through his we'll known cranium cover. Although 10 save his feel ings in a few recent matches, his opponents swallowed their pride and failed to give out the results of the games, Ray took two nice lacings from tic two above named. Yet, he still boasts about his playing.
