which four games are TO be play

Results Of the four opening SER
les IN the upper country left two
things fairly apparent. The
strength Of the Roberts circuit def
initely has settled in the northern
precincts after two months Of un-
certainty. OF the thirteen con-
tests Just reeled off, the lads from
the south came out on top in lust
two instances. The second division
today is thick with southern clubs.
Then there is the matter or the
split season. Even a week ago
there wasn't a club president in
the state who wouldn't froth at the
mouth when a split was mentioned
But Just let this so on a few days
longer and the matter Is apt to be
given some very serious. considera-

Due to his penchant for seeking
balls over the fence In his palmy
days, Galloway's colorful cognomen
has been attributed widely to the
effect his appearance at the plate
had on opposing pitchers. But jim
says that's all wrong. He came by
il some 20 years ago. he revealed
recently, while playing with St.
Louis, and it had nothing TO 10
with his batting proves.
One day Jim wanted TO play
hockey from the game and 60

with a messenger boy to deliver
him a wire just before the game
started, informing him Of his
grandmother's death. A couple Of
Jim'S teammates were wise to the
scheme. so they arranged for sew
eral more boys to present similar
messages. The result was a de-
LUCE OF bad news" Before Jeems
finished reading the first message,
another boy dashed up TO the dug

some time. From then on 1t "a

Two weeks before Sears reported
TO the Cats. a left-handed pitcher

down from st. Louis for a tryout.
He appeared at the Fort Worth sta

The news spread. and for the next
