Borrow Money
In less than half an hour, the players
both having gone to their respective
banking places, had returned. They
were able to borrow money on their
character and on their poker hands.
Out came the envelopes from their
hiding place in the safe. The seals
were broke. The players signaled the
proprietor that the hands were as they
should be. The money bags were also
placed on the tabieSunopened.

Players go after many bad ones but
that's something else again-far differ

George Longanecker, who Jumped in
the Union circuit years ago, took de-
light in picking on players who wanted
to pick on umpires to cover up weak
ness.
In game at Helena, Longanecker
called a third strike on Wood. Loud
was the protest voiced from the lips
of the Helena shortstop.

"That was better than the first one"
