WILD BASEBALL RUMORS
.MAKE ROUNDS OF CITIES j
Kannapolis and Concord Each Hears:
That Other to Stop Playing.—Gib
son Plays Here Saturday.
Rumors have been rampant in Kan
napolis, according to advice received
from that place, that the Gibson Mill
team is "gafloo-ey," disbanded, bust
ed and gone up in smoke.
Rumors have been rampant in Con
cord that had the Kannapolis team
not wen Saturday's contest, that team
was going to stop, cease and halt
playing.
Both rumors are the outcome of
last week's three games between the
two teams.
From Kannapolis comes the report
that four of Mauager Basinger's
charges had handed in their' suits and
were planning to seek more pleasant
pastures in which to exhibit their
talent. This, quite naturally, stirred
the baseball element of the city to its
depths and inquiries were made from
all available sources.
As a matter of fact, Gibson does
lose one" of the players. Hahn, who
did so much to help the team at sec
ond base, has left for Alabama. He
was too big a player for the locals
to keep. A star last year in the Sally
league and a good prospect this year
at Pittsburgh, it was impossible for
the local management to make it at
tractive enough for him. He left
Pittsburgh after six weeks because
they wished to farm him out to a
western team.
The entire personnel of the re
mainder of the team will be intact.
Some one will have to till in for Gates
in left field When he pitches Thurs
day. Then on Saturday, when Sim
mons pitches. Gates will return to
his outer garden.
Gibsou plays Cooleeinee on Thurs
day at Cooleeinee and returns to Con
cord Saturday for a game with the
Charlotte Tabernacle. The Taber
nacle team has been beaten once this
year by Gibson but it has beaten Kan
napolis twice.
The lineup in Saturday’s game is
as follows: Simmons pitcher. C!em
mer catcher. Harrill first base, Basing
er second base, Haynes storstop, Belk
third base, Gatos leftfield, Johnson
centerfield and Hatley right field.
It is said Chat the rumor about
Kannapolis disbanding if they lost
last Saturday, was absolutely true.
Somebody heard somebody else say
that they heard one of the players for
Gibson say that one of the Kannapo
lis players declared that had not Kan
napolis won on Saturday, they were
just going to quit playing.
