State League Gossip Hoy Irwin of Franklin la trying out aa a slab artist on the Superior team, and from 5ynt nllc"c" Is making good head Grand Island used two batteries against the bunch from Hastings Sunday, but lost tha game anyhow. Speelman, formerly with the Diets team of Omaha, now with the Superior team, was the big noise In the game against Kearney Sunday. In four times at bat he got away with three hits and handled six chances without an error. Pa Rourke's kid shortstop, Ward, who was farmed out to Fremont, played a pretty game against the Seward team. He was not right at the bat. but his work in tlie field waa above par. Both Rouse and Thlnson nearly gave the fans nervous prostration at Fremont on the opening day by presenting free passes. Five of York's scorer were the result of walks enough to have won the game. Three brothers are plavlng In the State league. Henry and Herman Thompson are with the York team, and are a strong battery, while "Tommy'' Thompson plays on the Fremont team. That Hastings bunch has a first base man who will bear watching. In the game Sunday he handled sixteen chances without a boot, and In tha games prior to that he had no errors. Evidently Superior has a bunch of hitters and sluggers on the team. The youagsters managed to get away with twenty-one afe binglea In the game against Kearney Sunday. The fans at Fremont went crasy with Jov Hunday, when in the fifth inning fifteen runa were batted In. Every man on the team had two swats at the ball, but at that only eleven hits were made duilng the entire game Sea ard used four pitchers aaalnst Fre mont In an attempt to stop the cloutinir streak In the fifth inning, among whom was Hanson, the Omaha boy. B. Brown, the little shortstop for (he Columbus tesm. was sure there with the stick In Sunday's game. In four times at bat be made three hits, all of which were In the two-bagger Una Hastings ssems to have the right hunch when it comes to bae ball. Not content with watching the team play when at borne, a number of fans chartered a car to attend the game at Grand Island Sunday. Hi home runs, six three-baagers. seven two-bsgxers and two singles made up the twentv-one hits which Superior made Funday against the Kearney team. Tha Kay to tha Situation Bae Want Ada. DETROIT.
