The fana of Goldaiioro are at your feet, Jimmy; you’re our bert>of heroes. /• • • And let’s follow that three cheers with a like number for the team. There’s a bunch of ball players you can’t praise tog much. For the better part of thret* months they.showed the way to every team in the circuit. Thfen. just as it iookbd like they were going to stay atop the Pinnacle, hard luck overtook them. Injuries, along with that old jinx, slump, connived to knock them olf in that heart breaking finish. y BUT THEY CAME BACK, BOY—ANiI HOW! • • • ~ .y, It’s the team that never quits fighting that shows their metal Thosjo Goldbugs are that team. They came iwck and whipped the living lights out of those Terrible Tars, taking four out of six knd losingka fifth certain victory through the blindness of a couple of umpires. » T ; ‘ ♦ • • , ' . •* »„ And now, let’s talk some about that final game yesterday! It’s a game worth talking about, fans. One of those affairs you read about in fiction! a • • MR. RALPH THOMAS IS T&E HERO OF OUR STORY! • "vR v We might call this little tale, “CRASHING THROUGH TO FAME”. * • • u Here’ s the ingredients of your story. The hero is out of favor. He’s lost a couple or so games. The fans says he’s no good. (Some of our good but skeptical brethren around these parts did think that and don't anv of you deny it.) Naturally he’s down in the mouth. He is anxious-for a change to make good. He sees his team sweep through almost to victory without him contribut ing one thing worth mentioning; then sees it turned back just when the championship is in its hands, turned latck, robbed by the blindness of two inefficient but honest umpires. ~* * • * . >* , The big moment approaches. The crucial gkme. The old re liables of the pitihing staff hnve given their all. It’s up to out hero to come through or go down in ignoming. • • • There you hive the stage set. The scene is in the very den of the terrible enemy. The store- is read&to unfold. • * * But it would take too long to fftffold it detail by detail. We’il make it short.and snappy. If reads like this: Eight inning*, of shutout baseball; eight beautiful goose eggs; six measly bingies.' Then rome.s the ninth with his team clinging to a two run lead • • • K The terrible Weafer (champion beefer of all time) is at the plate. He singles. The next man is oIH on a fly.. Then, with a dangerous pinch hitter up. he bears down. Over anxious to win his game, ho throws wild to second and 'tbere’* two men on the sacks, one on the perilous coiner. A few moments later the man on first steals second There’s enough runs in scoring position to k.nott the count. What a setting for a climax! * • * AND BOY, WHAT A CLIMAX! • • • ■». Mr. Doherty, a dangerous hitter at al! times, is Rt the plato. Three thousand people are yelling like mad for a home run! the most hectic baseball one can imagine, is agonizing. And there.
