princ~ of comedy for the evening was the loose. lanky and likeahle first- sachet. Silas Phelps. He kept the fans in stitches throughout with his every mot c and seemed to do whatever came into his mind. He wasn ’t acting at all but was just his natural funny self. While the game was in progress he decided that he needed a little conditioning so .he went for a jaunt around the racetrack. Even in his running he was a scream and the fans watched him rather than the game. nnp't net the idea that the fans at mumwwutm pymmmmmm. tun.

It started at that time. the lights would only be used for halt the game or so but there would be more fans ‘6 to the games as the time would suit more. Many people won- der what to do for the evening and if they thought they could no to a ball game and be home by 11 at least. they would treck over to the park and zoom would go the attendance. Don't get the idea that the fans a‘i tho park were treated to an evening 0' laur‘is and nothing more, the Pun- cher: showed. how softball should be played. The three pitchers who showed for the Punchers dazzled the fans with their speed and stuff. The best of the three was Percy O'Connor who is ranked-as the leading mounds- man in the States. He throws the nug- get in an under-arm submarine mo: tion as does a hardball pitcher, and had. the locals swinging wildly in at- tempt to tag one. The pitch, inci- dently is legal in the States but not in Canada. so the locals were a bit bewidlered, not having seen the style before. Another nice thing about the game was provided by the fans and not the Punchers. It would do your heart good to see how the good sports 0!. the Porcupine greeted the negro visitors. There was none of the racial discrimination as seen in the States as the local sporting fraternity cheered at every move made by the visitors. It must have done the ne- groes good to be cheered by the whites, as it was an occasion. They can come back any time they like and they can be assured of a full house and a rous- ing welcome. ‘ The recent night'games played while the Kokomr: Clowns ,were here ~has started many fans to wonder why the Honinger park isn't equipped with lights so we could-have night ball all the gamer long.

The result was not as serious as ‘it could have been however, although Red did lose the end of the third finger on his right hand. Had it been worse, St. Louis Flyers would have lost one of their star forwards as Red had a great year with them last season and is now looking forward to many more. If things goat the present-pace, League President Bill Smith is going to have to take steps similar to those taken by Otto Manse of the Intercounty Ball loop. Last week Manse slapped three- game suspensions on ttvo players for shoving the umpires. The first such uprising in the local loop came up a week 08 so'ago when Gus Gupstavson of the BOmbers threw his glove at Bill Lawton and then commenced to shove him around. Lawton prompt- ly humbled him from the game. A game or so later a rhubarb started between Bluey Webber of the Macmen and FrankO’Grady of the Greyhounds. A couple of punches were thrown in that case as 0’ Grady objected to Webber running into him so hard at third base.- Things like these cant be allowed to go too far or the results will be drastic. . .Shortstop Cam Jelly of Kirkland was quick to dig umpire More Doyon in a game here last week.

First it was Louis Romualdi in the number four slot for the Combines who cut loose with four hits and then last week Dus- ty Baker, big hitter for the Macmen, came through with three singles and a triple. . .In case you’re wondering why we haven’t mentioned a word about the San Francisco Cubs who were at the Hollinger this week, this was written before their visit as we are new away on halidays.
