TUESDAY, APRIL 3, 1923.

 

TEN YEARS

hey do come back.
, Alter hiding away
m in the cellar—or

 

eight or nine
is it ten—
the

blsebsll sunlight and trooping up the .

m behind him is what the
sport writers with the team call a
“dungerous looking machine.“

What will the lads in I’hll.’ a

do about it? For years tl:
regarded the team of Cormi .v
Gillieuddy—maiden name or

as the town's best laugh. cvo-n un-
nier than the letter carrier jokc. and
now to have that laugh taken away
from them. Just when they were prc~
paring to have. their annual tiing at
the team is not so good. A joke is a
mighty serious proposition in Phila«
dolphin and what few Jokes they
have over there. outside of the City
hall and the Police department. they

insist. must be treated with rever-
ence and respect.
If you'll believe the word of

atom-y McGIinn. baseball expert of
the Philadelphia Public Ledger and
Ed. Stevenst" of the Bulletin. who
have been “xiii-hing the Mackmen
work out at Montgomery. Ala... the
Mackmen are the most dangerous
factors in the American league.

It's again the infield of the Mack-
men. looking like the “million dol-
lar" collection of eight or nine sea-
sons back that is depended upon to
‘start the parade toward a pennant»—
maybe not this season but in a cou-
ple of years more. watch. The team
is young. full of the “let's go" spirit
snd don‘t know the word quit.

()ne of the two utility infleldcrs is
Hurry liicondn who starred in the

:nstcrn lcauue-with New Haven. He
hit over three hundred in the East-
ern league. and he has shown so
much stuff that it will be hard to
keep him on the bench. Heinie
Scheor is the other and he is good.

Joe Ilauser at tlrst. Jimmy Dykcs
It second. and Chick Galloway at.
shortstop are the other members of
the Mack regular quartet. Galloway
and llauser both hit in the select
class last season—Chick bumped the
apple for s. .324 percentage: Joe bat-
ted .3222. Dykes is a. cunning man on
the attack and makes his hits couut.
And the entire infield is so fast in
getting where they are going that
this more than makes up for any be-
low .300 hitting one of them may "do.

As for the rest of the works. pitch-
ers. catchers. outllelders and utility
men—well they fit like the cat's new
set of furs and woe chtme the teams
th‘t hook up with them during the
season. They will know they have
been in a battle.

And that's that!

Their speedy team work St‘t‘lllCd to

the players on the junior team pluvcd
a fine game and they all played at top
speed from the start to the finish of
the contest. L. Smith played a whale
of a game at guard and Jones put a
fine game at center.

Meeker was the outstanding star for
the Red Men Big Five. H seems to
have hit his stride and at be present
time is putting up the best game that
he has displayed this season. In last
evening’s contest his fine playing stood
out and was the cause of many favor-
able comments by the fans who at-
tended the game. Mason caged two
baskets and one foul goal for the Big
Five .

The preliminary game between the
Pocahontas girls and the New Canaan
girls was also a. hard fought contest
from start to finish. The local team
came near putting a crimp in the fine
record of the New Canaan team. _ At
the end of the first half of the (on-
test the local lassies were leading bv
the score of 8—6. In the second half of
the contest the New Canaan tram
played at top speed and managed to
nose out. ahead of the local girls by
one point at the finish of the. game.
The final score being 15-14 in their
'vvor.

Miss Jennie Bodweii was the out-
standing star for the Pocahontas girls.
She made two baskets and one foul
goal for s. total of five points. She
also played a. fine floor game. Miss
Payne also starred for the local girls.
Misses Wood and Chapman were the
stars for the New Canaan team.
