Engage
Acacia Nine
In Series

The weekday Sandlot play-off
pairings, which bracketed Heurich
Brewers with the Acacia Insur-
| ance team, was considered lucky
break for the beermen by many
sandlot observers, but actually
the Brewery team to a man
would rather have been paired
against the highly touted NRA
club.
Acacia and Heurich mines will
clash at 4:30 Wednesday on the
South Ellipse and most of the beer
players are of the opinion that if
it had been NRA, Thursdays dawn
would find the strong Government
League champion out of the elm
nations.
The Brewers, it seems, have had
the unhappy faculty of emulating
the little girl who had the curl
right in the middle of her fore
head-when she was good she was
very, very good, but when she was
bad she was horrid.
That is just how the Brewery
team went through the Industrial
League during the past season.
The Brewers won the first half,
but even in that series dropped
games by sheer error-making abil-
ity. Twice they all but clinched
the second half championship,
only to muff both chances and be
forced to 60 through a second
playoff series with the South West
Market nine.
Even in that last game the
Brewers all but tossed the deci.
sion to the Marketmen. The
brewmen blew a 4-3 lead when
Bill Shelton ran back onto the
grass after a pop fly, let it drop
and then with the batter and base
runner circling the paths stood
dumbly by, apparently forgetting
to retrieve the ball.
But the Brewers feel that #
they could play their toughest foe
the first day. the rest might be
easier. AS it is now, the Beermen
are afraid that by the time they
get to the Blue Eagle lads, their
old habit of going to pieces will
return.
Meanwhile the NRA's are
stacked against the young Kann's
Department store players and are
not expected to have any trouble
Thursday.
