to pass the buck by stating that

COLUMNIST COBB'S HOME CITY
PROUD OF NOTED WRITER

So popular has Irwin S. Cobb be-
come in his home town of Paducah,
KY, that the citizens have named a
hotel and eeveral other buildings
after their favorite son.
Cobb, regular contributor to the
Midland Journal through his column
of comment, was born in Paducah
and edited the daily newspaper there
while still in his teens. Later he
went to New York and began quick
ascent to permanent fame in news
paper, stage and radio work. More
recently the screen has commanded
his attention.
Cobb covered the World War
for Saturday Evening Post and was
awarded a chevaliership in the
French Legion of Honor for his work
He holds a commission in the U. S.
Reserve Officers Corps.
Though he does not seek to be hui
morous, Cobb's column radiates the
natural humor of its author. That
is one reason why it has become one
of the most popular newspaper fea-
lures of our day. We suggest that
you read It every week.

Rising Sun bested Elkton on Sat
urday by the score of 1915, behind
the sterling pitching OF "Diddy''
Richardson. Every player on the
Sun team gathered his share of hits
and covered his position in perfect
form.
On Monday afternoon in the game
at Elkton with Triumph Fusee, lady
luck failed to shower her blessings
on the Sun boys, when they dropped
a hard fought game to Fusee, 7-6.
"Bill" Gather, Sun twerler, de-
served a better fate. Besides pitch
ing an excellent brand of ball, he
folded his position in perfect form.
The Sun boys gathered five runs in
the first inning, driving 'Shag' Nee
kins, Fusee moundsman, to the
showers. He was replaced by "Tom''
Hay.
The third inning was the down fall
of the Sun team. The infield went
on an error spree. Six errors COM
bined with two hits, let six runs
across the home plate.
The score was tied in the seventh
inning when Richardson scored on
McCush's single. Vic Willis then
took Kay's place on the mound for
Fusee. The Fusee boys scored the
extra run in the ninth, when with
two away Lynch scored on an infield
hit.
