BETWEEN YOU By AND ME ? FRANK H? HEATH I Th? other day we happened to spell "klinono" with an "a" thusly "klmonu." A few duys later one good counsellor and advisor,! Donald Morrison, wandered in Lo inform us of our error. ? "You arc ladng unfaithful to our highest traditions" <juoth Donald, 1 "and huvn descended to the level of thoae (vho would change the Constltutlon. It Ih terrible to behold. j I broke Ln at this point to suggest that perhaps 1 wan merely trying to create a feminine form for kimono. j To which Donald replied that there f can he no improvement on the prescut feminine form. i Introducing Percy Maya suul Dewey Creed, the men )*'h/> can retjlly reju-' venate huBeball teaiUH. That Ksuo; outfit lust Friday night had real cIhhh i and put up a brand of offensive play , that wan great. And believe you me I brothers, Percy and Dewey keeps 'em pepped up every second. Those two boys ure reul live-wires. | * The crowds of fans is increasing ev- : cry game. Now if yon want to park your car near the side lines you have ; to be there early. And the ladies? ' bless their hearts?are just as much interested us the male rooters. Out at'tho Hermitage Mill they: have a swell ball club, a real credit to the community. The hoys on the I team are grateful to Camden business men for, the support given them in | outfitting the teatn. * * Oh yes before we forget it?those uniform*! the F?sso crew sported lust Friday, and will ho noon in vlfln every appoaranoo in ,iIm> future, in'o nifty. White shirts wljli the Khbo emblem, white paiiin and white hose, and tijoy a re going to have caps hooii -?mire a nlco looking team. ? VVoll folks, I'vo seen a lot of high ' school pitchers but tho mound work 1 of this Lynch hoy Just about tops any-J thing my old lumps havo slimmed in! many a day. "Red" pitches with his head and his heart, which with that whip-like right arm, gives him aai unheal a hit; combination. * * * * Tho nicest tblriK about this boy is that he Is modest about it all. To him this pitching assignment is just a Job he is out to perform to the best of his ability. "I Just go out and pitch as I am told to" he said. Now I want to say modesty is (). K. in every respect Perhaps "Red" did pitch them in as he was told to do, hut Just the same-?don't lose sight of the fact that when Home big husky is up at the plate swinging his war club, it Is "Rod" who has to start out then on the hill and toss that ball in And "Red" does just that. I'mpires tell me "Red" is a hard man to officiate back of "Red's" shoots are never over the center of J the pan, hut cutting the corners so i close the umpire gets the jitters. It takes a good man to pitch that brand of ball. * And let it be said?"Red" is a hit-j ting pitcher. Which makes him 100 1 per cent j E bso White Hose 18, Cubs 8 Percy A. Mays led his Kb so crow to' a brilliant victory over the Jenkins Cubs in a city league fracas at the high school baseball pasture last Krl day night, the score being is to X The Ksso crew showed a complete! reversal of the form displayed in the opening game of the league season. I hey fairly sparkled and the outstanding luminary of the scintilating ! constellation of stars was Captain ! May 8. Percy gamboled around the third sack like a skittish colt picking them off his feet and plucking them from the air with the sail froid of a Rabbit Maranville and Johnny Kvers combined. Inspired by the example of their peerless leader the Ksso gung lit into the slants of George Jenkins, the rotund hurler for the Cubs In the first round for six Juicy counters. Then in the third they added a seventh run, annexed six more in the fourth and finished with a five run spasm in the fifth - The Cubs were Just not in form and foil easy victim to Percy and his crow of gaH pirates. They managed to sneak a runner over the plate In the second round, added four in the fourth, two In the sixth and one in the seventh. The Esso rejuvenating process featured the appearance in the new lineup of such stellar lights of soft ball fame as Shirley. Goff, Rose. Mays, Thomas, 11. Jackson. C. Jackson, Hasty and Godwin. 1 Wolves Devour the Motors One rip-roaring third inning (luring! which the Wolves soaked tin.* twelve, inch pellet over the greensward and tiie sandy reaches of the baseball pasture netted them eight hig smackers, enough to win a hectic hall game from Hill Owens and his troupe ot motor fixers. The game, played Tuesday evening, was witnessed by a large crowd of fans The final score was 1" to *> The Motors iiad one gay inning, the ; second when they looked like certain I winners by storing six runs Hut j that ended (lie rally as Clarkson , Ithanic tightened up his belt, pulled' ills cap down over his left eye and i proceeded to put some stuff on the; apple that quite baffled the hatting i optics of the opposition.
