Kites ideas date back to the
early part of the century. He is
not one to lag behind, accepting the
plans as they are manufactured for
him. However, he never fails to
recognize a good idea, and he takes
advantage of it.
Back in 1907. when Kite was
playing for Allentown, Pa, he turn
ed up one day wearing a pair Of
shin guards, becoming the second
man in baseball to utilize the little
nick-nacks. The first man was
Roger Burshang, Of the New York
Giants, who turned up sporting the
novelties at New York the day be-
fore Kite did at Allentown. This
all happened while Kite was play
ing in the Atlantic League.
He also played for New London,
in the Connecticut League in 1905
and 1906, slapping the pill around
between $50 and $3.50.
In the latter part of 1908, Kite
came to Wilmington to play for a
team known as the Wilmington
Sailors, romping around in the o.d
Class D Carolina League. He stay
ed here until 1910, after which he
went to Greenville, S. c., still play
ing hard and tough game of ball.
Bert's career has been long and
versatile. Here are a few of the
outstanding years of his life:
1912; managed Asheville in the
Appalachian loop.
1918; played in the Georgia State
League.
1914, managed Marion, S. c., in
the Pee Dee circuit.
1915; played with several minor
league clubs.
In 1918 he organized the Whining
ton Independents to play service
teams from the surrounding area.
The following year the Kitemen,
still called the Independents, won
the City championship.
Kite has been employed by the
Tide Water Power Co., for more
than 80 years, but come baseball
season and he is granted a leave
of absence ,and turns his talents to
the business of his baseball team.
The last actual playing Bert did
was about five years ago, WIZ
his club was shorthanded in a
game with Clinton. Major" as he
is known by his players, went into
the game at second base.

for the fifth time to gain his 10th

TRUMAN WILL See :
BALL GAME TODAY
BY BUS HAM

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. -(R)-
President Truman personally will
signal the start of sports post

The White House announced that
the chief executive will be in his
flag-draped box in Griffith Stadi-

Not since 1941, when the late
President Roosevelt threw out the
first ball for the start of the Amer
lean League race has the chief
executive seen a ball game here.
1.-The President dropped in on a
game just for the fun of it, as Mr..
Truman will do" Griffith recall
ed.
The pressure of wartime condi-
tons is off President Truman now,
and he sent word that he wants
to get his annual pass in use,"
Griffith said.
1t is purely a coincidence, of
course, that a team from Presi-
dent Truman's home state, Miss
ouri, will play here tomorrow.
But this posed a question:
Which team will the President root
for? His home-state Browns or the
Senators. currently fighting De-
troit for the league lead?
Charley Ross the President's
press secretary, said he didn't
know the answer.
1T puts him in a quandary, ~
Ross remarked.
Griffith, also a former Missouri.

The President will be accom-.
panied by Ross and Matthew J.
Connolly, his appointment secre-
tary.
