CLARENCE DEAL MAKING
BASE BALL PLAYING
In speakmp- of Clarence Heal,

with the Piallsmouth team lor Ihe
tiisl of Jhe season, but who has
joined Ihe Helie J'oufche, S. I)..
team, Ihe .orlhwesl Post of lhal
citv sa-:
Clarence Heal, the new center
Itchier, arrived from his home in
Piallsmouth, .Neb., lasf Thursday
and made his initial appearance
in Sunday's panic. As nolhimr
was hit into his territory in that
Raines, he had no opportunity o
ilispl.iy his prowess, but we hap
pen to know lhal Ihe new man will
make a worthy successor to Carl
Ouainbcrp-. the. fast, little. Holder
who has covered that position so
well for Hit' past several years.
Carl was hit in the lop; a few
weeks auo by a ball, which cau-ed
what is known in base ball linpo
as a "Charley horse." and this will
probably keep him out of Ihe pernio
for the ret of the season. In
Sunday's game Heal made a three
bapper and a single, and he is one
of the fastest men in the country
when it comes to stealing bases.
