league or any other of the districts big leagues It wont seem the same with out a Legion crew scampering about the local diamond Some great ball clubs in past years have worn Legion colors and be fore that Vets regalia A great many pleasant mem ories flood concerning the classy ball teams managed by chubby Ceegars McDonald Lets enough players around to finish the game after the umpires toss ed a few out of the game New Toronto won the second game to equalize the series with game three booked into Park Toronto Why this one is easy to re member is that your paragrapher had the chore of calling Ebbie Goodfellow then coach of St Louis Flyers to get Joint off for the afternoon from the Flyers training camp at Midland Well to make a long story short Joint got into a rhubarb with the base umpire
