Monday night caused the postpone

to the baseball loving public but only
a few persons braved the harsh weath

gaged in organizing a Y. M. C. A.
team regardless of the restoration of
tlie league, which was djsbanded here
in 1926 when John S. Carpenter,
father of the loop, moved out of town.
The Y. M. G. A. is contemplating
, having a host of good local hoys on
I its roster and expect to inaugurate

terested in a lively battle or two
should get in touch with the new out
fit’s boss, Chic DeMarcus or Roy
Funderburke, of this city.

Poplar T en l Shuts Out Wiuecoff.
, Da Saturday, June 4th. Poplar Tent
r “All Stars” shut out Winecoff on
Oehler field with a score of 16 to 0.
! This 'is tb,e third straight game won
by the “All Stars.” They defeaL'd
GjlwoQd on May 21s,t and Brpwn MiU
May 29th.
The game started at 3:30 p. ni.
The first inniug “Kurt” Taylor wliift
ed put the first three men up on the
Winecoff team, while Caldwefl scored
-the first run for the “All Stars.” The
score steadily increased for the latter
team. Many of the runs scared were
due to errors in the outfield. Up till
the fifth inning no one on the Wine
coff team had reached first base.
Winecoff lost their pitcher last
week which was. due g to non-backing.
This game was a sure proof that he
had been winning their games instead
of the team. Winecoff changed pitch
ers three times during the game.
One man on the Poplar Tent team
banned out While Taylor .hurled
( opt eighteen men ’on ‘the Wiuecoff
team! Only four clean hits were
made for the lost cause while the “All
Stars” made thirty-eight. “Bottle
Washer” Umberger pitched most of
the game but his balls usually changed
their course and fell somewhere in<
outfield, while the “All Stars” player
made a merry-go-round of the dia
mond.
The main feature of the gnme was
the hqavy hitting of “I>at” Caldwell
a,ijd “Red” Williams. The game ended
a boat 5:30 and the discouraged team
left -for their homes near the Winecoff .
