Otto Tekautz was probably tne
most sought man last Satur'day
night. Everybody was locking
for the “Myste>-y Man” at the
Napredne Slovenke’s dar.ee.
Miss Golob finally identified
Otto as the man, and as a re-

Class Offiecrs and Program
Activities Planned by the
Newly Organized Class
of
Surely the cynics would be sur-
prised if they visited the Slovene
School classes as they are held
on Friday evenings in the old
building under tthe leadership of
Mr. Ivan Zorman.
The number of students count-
ed in great number probably
would not excite the census taker
who i s accustomed to think in
thousands, but as far as the Slo¬
vene S,chool is concerned one of
the most important elements is
the špirit and this year there is
pleny of špirit.
Glose to thirty students vvere
assembled in the room for the
session last Friday evening, each
one agog and evidentaly inter-
ested in the form in which the
Slovene School would progress.
For the greater part they were
ali nevvcomers not acquainted
and therefore they acted some-
what strange and possibly stiflf
through a lesson in which each
one feared that he would be call-
ed upon and possibly show ev-
erything he or she did not
know. That however changed, |
Mr. Ivan Zorman, a shrewd
psychologist, called mostly upon
the old veterans in the classes
and showed how it is done. The
period of instruction passed ever
so fast and the class was over
before anyone realized that it
had started.
Even before the classes start¬
ed the pupils were cheered by
greetings that were conveyed by
messages from Mr. Božidar Ja¬
kac, Rev. Dominic O. F. M. vvish-
ing the school the best success
in the coming year. The school
received an official sanction of
outsiders and that made the at-
mosphere somewhat different.
It was only after the class

One could not be very enthu
siastic over thhe number of mu-
sician who. reported for the
meeting of the Slovene orchestra
as it vvas in session last Sunday
morning in the old building of
the Slovene National Home. By
actual count there vvere only
fourteen, and of those tvvo vvere
not musicians. But one vvould
have been differently impressed
if he stat at the meeting and re¬
ceived some of the špirit vvhich
vvas manifestly present. The ef~
fort to reorganize vvas so deter-
minded that there vvas not even
talk of giving up the idea of not
organizing.
It Is a Good Start
Of the fourteen that vvere
present, eleven vvere members of
the orchestra vvhich existed
three years ago. And the num¬
ber represented the skeleton of
a good orchestra. Every depart-
ment vvas represented vvith rep-
resentative instruments to make
a good orchestra. It is a good
start and propects look excellent.
The memberss of the organi-
zation first decided that the
name of the mušic combina-
tion vvill be the SLOVENE CON¬
CERT ORCHESTRA. The meet¬
ing also decided that the initial
fee for belonging to the orches¬
tra vvill be five dollars for any-
one vvho has not belonged to the
old orchetra vvith a nomonial fee
for monthly expenses.

Ali veste, kaj je ^Cleveland Journal”?
We traveled to the Slovene
Workingmen’s Home on Water-
loo road, last Sunday night, and
vvere presented by the United
Lodges of the S. S. P. Z. vvith a
very diversified and entertain-
ing program.
The Slovene lodges presented
the old tvvo-act comedy “Zupa¬
nova Micka,” vvhich did vvhat it
promised—produced very much
laughter. It vvas amusing thru-
out, as the story vvill reveal. A
peasant girl is being forced by
her father to marry a clumsy,
uncouth peasant. She, hovvever,
is courted by a cultured man
who claims to be rich. In time,
hovvever, she finds out that he
is an imposter and in a tricky
way she pays him back.
Is Center of Play
The center of the play vvas the
mayor, Mr. J. Steblaj. He act¬
ed his part, and added the best
color to the play. Mr. Steblaj
is a knovvn aetor and it can be
taken for granted that any part
h e portrays vvill be interpreted
correctly.
His daughter, Zupanova Mic¬
ka, vvas not so good. Through-
out the play vve vvere impressed
by her method of shovving emo.
tion. Her acting vvas too affect-
ed, her actions stiff and unna.
tural—far too unnatural, espec-
ially her sighs, they certainly
vvere more than sighs. When
she really vvas to shovv emotion,
as vvhen she vvas begging for
the return of her rin^, she shovv-
ed very little excitement need-
ed, acting as if she didn’t čare
a snap about the ring.

OREL MEMBERS WORK HARD
FOR FIGHT
Along with the promotor and
the flghters, there was another
group who worked zealously to
pu,t the Orel boxing show among
the successful undertakings of
the Club. There were 24 members
divided into three teams of four
boys and four girls who were
selling tickets vvith a view of
landing first plače and a party
at the Surtz home.
As it stands at present the 3
teams came in so close that the
winner has not been decided yet.
The three teams vvere headed
by Ermin Gornik, Red Brancelj
and Frank Zabukovec, and it is
rumored that Mr. Surtz vvill for-
get about the vvinners and feast
ali three teams for their splen-
did efforts.
King Boxer stili holds the
highest plače in the eyes of the
neighborhood sportsmens, espe-
cially if the second ooxing shovv
vvhich vvas held under the aus-
pices of the Orel at the Slovene
National Home is any indication.
Some 800 fans of the square
ring gathered in the hali —
and through some three hours
prayed and begged for knock-
outs. They received vvhat they
vvanted, too, for the bouts vvere
of such high caliber to vvhet the
appetite for action to its keen-
est edge.
Second for Heinie Martin
This fight card vvas promoted
by Heinie Martin Antončič, and
marked his second štab at pro-
moting fights. It vvas j ust on
April 9 that he presented his
first slam-bang affair. That his
second card vvas even better
than the first vvas seen by the
yells and applause that filled
the hali after every bout, at
times the noise vvas defeaning.
Bargain Pastebords
In these days of hard times
and absrmce of prosperity the
ducats vvere greatly reduced and
anyone having four bits could
get a good seat. Many vvere
there vvho seraped for vveeks to
have the change to throvv over
for a pasteboard, vvhile many
others took advantage of the
cheap priče for ringside seats
and sat in the select clreie,
vvhen at other times they vvould
have been in the rear.
Prominent People There
Many prominent people in po-
, litical circles honored this .sec¬
ond Orel fight; there vvere coun.
cilmen, judges and candidates
for the various offices at the
November election. Before the
last bout betvveen Mlsmas and
Kushlan, Heinie Martin hopped
into the ring and introduced
ali the personalities. As the in¬
troduced took their bovvs they
vvere greeted vvith a big ovation.
It vvas a little after eight that
the announcer cravvled through
the ropes and bravvled the names
of the. first fighters and a min¬
ute after the ‘ref’ called the
boxers to the middle of the ring
and said “Be good, boys, and
break vvhen I teli you”...

ALWAYS THERE
How much the Cleveland Journal is interested in the current
affairs of the neighborhood and the things the neighborhood is
interested in can be seen from the things which appear in the
columns of the Cleveland Journal. With fingertips on the pulse of
activities not only in Cleveland but wherever there is interest in
Slovene affairs and Slovene doings the Cleveland Journal is always
willing to push them and willing that as many people as possible
read and know about them.
This is not only true as far as getting the news is concerned
but the Cleveland Journal is interested in getting the news as soon
as possible to its many readers; that is the reason of the Fight
Extra.
It is the ambition of the editorial staff of the Cleveland Jour¬
nal that the people of Cleveland get their news as fast as possible
and at the same time that that news be as full as possible. The
staff realizesi that it cannot work without the willing co-operation
of ali the readers of the Journal. Therefore, it asks for whatever
co-operation the readers may be able to give it, in order that the
readers themselves may benefit from the inforrnation which may
prove of interest, or even arouse ambitions among others. In the
interest of ali the Slovenes who may benefit from inforrnation of
doings of others the staff of the Cleveland Journal asks that it may
receive co-operation and support of its friends. It is the paper of
the American Slovenes, for American Slovenes and for their in-
terests. The Cleveland Journal itself will try to keep its standard
of the latest news first.
JACTA EST A LEA!
Caesar would have said the self same thing .if he had made
the decision which the musicians of the neighborhood have made
last Sunday morning when after deliberation they have decided to
reorganize and to maintain a high standard of mušic with the
"Slovene Concert Orchestra”.
After a sleep of approximately three years the old špirit of
the orchestra has been taken from its somewhat troubled sleep
and now shares the daylight of activity and energy expended to
keep it going. And curiously enough there were enough musicians
at the initial meeting last Sunday to represent practically every
department and almost every instrument to make up a well bal-,
anced orchestra without asking anyone to join. It was fortunate
that this is so. It augers well for the orchestra that will carry on
even if no other Slovene musician joins. There is even enough
špirit manifested that those present will carry on to prove that
they can in spite of anything. But they are not clošing doors to
anyone who will be anxious to join. There is plenty need of good
musicians to flll out the skeleton which is standing now. There
will be many things which the personnel of the orchestra will need
but that will take čare of itself in the natural course of things.
One of the principle needs of the orchestra, curiously enough,
is not lack of musicians but the real and crying need is people who
will give it moral support and encouragement who, when an op-
portunity presents itself, will give the orchestra an opportunity
to show that it can perform good mušic well. That kind of support
is of greater importance than a large number of people asking for
a plače in the orchestra. Moral support and a little enthusiasm will
go a long way to keep the orchestra among the Slovenes where
it can do a lot of good wofk in supplying mušic for the things at
which mušic is needed. The musicians are doing their bit by tax-
ing themselves in time and ftnances. The pedple should recipro-
cate by doing what they can to give a reahhelping hand.

VARIED PROGRAM
(Continued from page one)
that the timidity and the close
shell was discarded by the stu-
dents and in an amazing short
time they felt like old friends
and went to work on extra school
activities like chums of long
standing.
Things changed and the mem-
bers of the class went through
the elections of officers (for
names see page 4) and immedia-
tely began preparations for a
picnic at the Metropolitan Park
on October 18th. The committee
in charge of entertainment took
over the details and the whole
official function was over with
the Slovene school špirit formed
and with indic itions of having
one of the fines t years in its ex-
istance.
Itequiremer.ts Are liglit
To make the whole thing eas-
ier it has been decided that for
the first month there would be
no entrance fee, only abil ity to
play an instrument well is the
only reqiurement. The fee will
become effective on November 4
but the standard of playing will
also be required. In an organi-
zation which vfill try to Set a
real standard, it is no more than
fair that it should require a cer-
tain amount of ability before
members are accepted.
As a conclusion of the morn-
'ng’s business, the members of
the orchestra decided that there
should be a set of by-laws drawn
up for which purpose a by-law
committee consistihg of Otto
Tekautz, Adolph Tekautz, Anton
Eppich, Matthev/ Ule and Frank
T. Suhadolnik.
The officers of the organiza-
tion are Louis Hodnik, president;
Adolph Tekautz, secretary and
treasurer. The date of the first
rehearsal will be announced as
soon as the director has been
found.
WHAT “THEY” SAID
mas, truly i s
I /
one word very often which I
failed to find in the text of the
play and which added nothing
to the production, things like
that are not done today.
Anže—he was fine and cer-
t;ainly acted his part in fine
style, no one failed to get a cor-
rect picture of the true Anže
from his acting. In conclusion,
Lt was a fine play, with its good
points exceedirtg any slight mis-
representations that occurred.
Spartans’ Revue Very Clever
The Spartans gave a revue en-
titled “Bernstein Tries ’Em Out”
which cleverly introduced the
various Spartan actors as the
Turkovich sisters, Frank Ilc and
Tony Trinko who sang and play-
ed and danced to the satisfac-
Uon of yours truly.
Besides that we have, Messrs.
Belle and Plut, who received
the most applause, the Sokol
Tumblers who gave their tnrill-
ing tricks and the Hostnik sis¬
ters who sang Slovene songs to
perfection.
Many YOung People
The attendahce was not ex-
ceptional, but for the conditions,
vvas favorable. There were a
surprisingly large number of the
young people present — being
about equal with the older
members present. The entire
evening was well spent if one
attended the United Lodges of
the S. S. P. Z. affair, and ws
are sure that this expresses the
opinion of evcryone present.

DOCTOES IN A NEW ROLE
No one will dispute the authority behind the American Medi-
cal Association and the intense interest with which the members
of that august association are listened to. This great influence is
felt in the manufacturing of foods and in that role the doctors
are exerting a great influence on the attitude which is being taken
in the preparation and the advertising of foods. This influence is
reached through the food committee of the association which
examines the claims of manufacturers of canned goods. In the
first year of its existance the committee examined five hundred
Products and to only seventy-five it granted the permission to use
the seal of the association.
Of the number that were rejected the committee turned them
down because of false claims on thq label or the advertising, mis-
branding etc. The report of the committee reads like a fairy tale
where people who are .conseientious are doing their bit to aid “the
health and the welfare of the public”.
The work of the committee is gratis. No fee is asked by the
committee and none is accepted. With its purpose of aiding the
health “and the proper education and guidance of the people and
their physicians in matters of diet, food values, and nutrition thru
the medium of commercial advertising” are doirig excellent work.
The influence of the committee on the merchandising of labeled
foodstuffs is certain to achieve excellent results and to be far
reaching in minimizing health dangers.

Tickets may be secured from
any one of the members or at

The Arcadians threat that
the party will last a long time

Intimate shots on the fight by
Journal Jessie and for a girl’s
impression on her first fight
show, by Francis Gerbec.
The Cleveland Journal is
proud to present to its readers
the outstanding players of the
current indoor season. This AU-
Star team was chosen from a
field of so many leading lumi-
naries that the task w&s diffi-
cult. The sborts staff did not
select anv of the players, as to
how they would or can play
their positions, but they based
their selections by the work
lhey have shown. In selecting
the players, first there were
Chosen two of the outstanding
for each position and from these
the All-Star ten was seleeted.
There may be some doubt ih
the minds of our readers as to
the ability of some cf the play_
ers. In order to erase this doubt
may vre explain that the parti-
cular player was chosen, for the
fact that he had outshone his
rivals in the respective position.
Ali the players were picked not
orily as to their defensive work
but attention was also given to
their offensive power. A play-
er may be entirely defensive
in a pinch where his batting
power might be called upon, he
would be entirely helpless. Or a
player may be a heavy hitter at
bat but proves to be weak on the
field. With both the defense
and the attack given considera-
tion, the player, who possessed
both aualities was seleeted for
his particular position.
L. Sodja on First Base
In looking over the first sack-
ers, of ali teams, two of the
leading men were considered,
Louis Sodja of the Loyalites and
E. Fabian of the Comrades.
Here are two men both splendid
players and both were main as-
sets to their club. L. Sodja was
given the nod over Fabian, due
to his extraordinary reach and
height. These two assets, to¬
gether with his alLaround work
on first base made him a hof
first choice. Sodja’s long reach
was responsible for many bad
or wild throws being saved for
his infielders. His reach and
his long stretch could not be
over looked and helped in cut-
ting off hit-s. His fielding was
steady and reliable. At bat he
is a timely and dangerous hit
ter, always to be feared.
E. Fabian is one of those piay-
ers who plays a hard game. He
is a cool and confident fielder
It is said of him that his infield¬
ers could not throw hard or fast
enough to pleaee him. His hit-
ting 'has been one of the fea-
tures in the Comrade games.
Yerse at the Keystone Bag
Eddie Yerse, captain of the
Comrades, due to his steady,
clever and reliable work on the
second sack was given first
choice over Barbis of the Pio
neers. Yerse played a cleve’/
game at his position, where he
worked in perfect co-operation
with his infielders. He is cool
and at the plate is a dangerou?
man to face. He hits the ba«!
hard, and often comes through
in a pinch.
If Barbič was a ''Ule less cum-
bersome on his feet, ms batting
ability would have mare him a
unanimous choice. A trifle slov.’
around the bag, although he
fields cleanly. He is well-knowr!
for his batwork, and is one of
the hardest hitters in the Inter-
lodge League.
Short and Second Combination
It is well_known that to have
a reliable infield, two of its
main principals must work in
perfect unison. Namely: short
and second. To have a short-
stop and a second sacker, work
\vith timely co-operation, is the
desire of many baseball mana.
gers. In Krainz, of the Com¬
rades, at short, and Yerse on
second, we find a smooth cnck-
ing pair of infielders that can-.
not be beaten. It was due to
the perfect playing of these two
men that the Comrades kept in
the race.
Simonis. of the S. Y. M. C.
ten is our second choice. Bill is
another good fielder and at the
bat he has given a good account
of himself. His only drawback
was the small number of games
he participated in.
Marinko Cinches Third
Third base was the easiest po¬
sition to name. Freddie Marin¬
ko, of the Orels, was chosen u-
nanimously over his closest ri¬
val, Novak, of the Comrades.
Marinko has displayed a sensa-
tional game at the hot corner.
His playing is the talk amongst
players. It’s a treat to see him
at the third base. His qualities
are many. He boasts speed, abil-
ity, cleverness, keen judgment
of hit balls, and best of ali, he is
a reliable hitter. It is without
fear of contradiction that we
name him for first choice. '
Novak’s main asset was his
terrific batting. He also played
a bangmp game on third.
Spretnak Starš at Right Short
To diminutive, Carl Spretnak,
of the Pioneers, goes the posi¬
tion of holding down the right
short end of the outfield. Carl
Is probably one of the fastest
men in the outfield. His small
size is made up for, by his terri¬
fic speed on the field. He has
robbed many a batter of hits
and shows keen judgment in
olaying the bali. His batvvork
Is on the average and comes
through quite often in a pinch.
Murphy, of the Loyalites, was
chosen on the second team.
Murphy although he has play-
od the outfield position seems
to be the only outstanding play-
-sr who could cover the right
short position on a par with
Spretnak. Murphy is a fast
man, and he is also a good bat¬
ter. He shows remarkable abil-
ity in the lead-off position as h e
frequently works the pitcher foi
a pass.
Brilliant Outfield
In selecting the outfield, twc
olayers were chosen unanimous-
ly. Their playing and batting
tbroughout the entire season
has been sensational. Danny
“Spoke,” although he plays
right short for the Orels has
that knack of going to either
side of the field for the bali
which, if he were to ‘play right
field, he could do so remark-
ably well. It is his certain field¬
ing that makes him a sure bet
in right.
“Red” Brancelj, of the Orels,
wus the closest rival of Kostan-
sek. Red, although a good oat-
tsr, is very weak on judgment df
fly balls, and it is for this rea-
son that he was picked for the
second team.
In Lefty Habian and Snag Te-
kavec we have two men who are-
unquestionabl.y, good fielders
In fact they are two of the bost
bali ha\vks in the League. But
their on.ly drawback vvas in their
batvvork. Both Lefty and Snag
had an off season at the plate
Snag plays the left end and
j-,efty drevv center. Lefty him
self is a left fielder but vva^
chosen for center due to his re
markable speed and his judg¬
ment of balls and as was stated
abo^e he v/ould be a hot choice
for the first team but for his
bad vear in batting.
Habian Is Star Receiver
Johnny Habian, of the Pioneers,
has handled his pitcher, Mako-
vic wonderfully. It is this per¬
fect co-operation that has kept
the Pioneers in front through-
out the season. Habian is a
smart catcher. His speed around
the bases is fast, whieh accounts
for his heavy batvvork. He also
had no trouble in making the
first berth, although his closest
rival gave him a good run.
J. Kostansek, who has cauglit
Teray during the latter part of
the season has helped in bal ■
ancing the entire Orel club to
such a great extent that it was
this balance that has carried the
Orels into the series, over teams
that boasted of players sup-
posedly superior to the record of
the Orel club. Not only has he
caught well, but 'his hitting has
been always timely. -
Makovic - Jeray Hurling Aces
Frankie Makovic and Iggie Je-
ra,y, by their efforts have proven
themselves as the League’s best
moundsmen. In Makovic, of the
Pioneers, we have one the fast¬
est speed bali artists. His record
shows but two defeats out of
some twenty odd games. Mako¬
vic throvvs vvhat is probably the
hardest bali in the Circuit. His
bali has such great amount oi
speed that it takes, perfect ti
ming to hit it. His control is
marvelous, and he is one of the
coolest pitchers ever seen on the
mound.

DECIDING CHAMPIONSHIP GAME TO BE PLAYED
SUNDAY
The Orels evened the cham.
pionship series by dovvning the
Pioneers in the second game by
a score of 5 to 3. Playing be-
fore a fronzied crowd of some
4.500 rooters, the Orels hopped
on to Makovic in the early part
of the game and then accorded
Jeray’s four hit performance
with sensational fielding to em-
erge vietorious.
Jeray at His Best
It’s no vvonder that such a
youthful team as the Orels, en-
fered the series games, for they
have played sensationally thru¬
out the season. But, best of ali
is the great shape Jeray has
vept himself in. He is the hurl-
er, who pitched the Loyalites to
o champiopship over the S. Y.
M. C. in last season’s series play.
And here he is ali ready tb re-
peat. Jaray’s work is mainly
responsible for his club’s won-
derful shovving. He had his good
days and he had his bad days,-
'out in the second game of the
leries, Jeray never looked bet-
fer. The first three batters to
'ace him retired on strikes, and
'n their half of the inning the
Irels scored three runs on five
hits. With such a lead, Jeray
continued his good beginning
and held the Pioneers helpless
until the eighth, vvhen the Pio-
aeers got two of their four hits,
ooupled with a walk and scored
three runs. In the other eight
team pitchers. M. Sodja, of the
Loyalites, had tough brcaks in
;ome of his games. He was un-
;loubtedly a tough man to beat.
He boasted a string of twenty-
three scoreless innings. Max is a
great hurler. But his record can-
fiot compare with Jeray’s. Max
throvvs a fast bali, extremely on
a par with Makovic.
Twin Yerse vvas seleeted as
frames he vvas never in trouble.
He issued one base on balls and
fanned nine. In other vvords
Jeray vvas “on.”
Marinko Gets Three Hits
Not only did Marinko field
splendidly, but it vvas his bat
that spelled defeat for Makivic
He was credited vvith three
fielding chances, and the sgore-
book shovvs three hits out of
four trips to the plate. Freddie
Marinko bats leadoff position,
and he sure lived up to his mon.
icker. Crashing three singles he
started both the first and the
third inning rallies. He scored
twice. He started the first frame
by sending a hit that Makovic
could not handle. Orazem also
singled. F. Brancelj flied out to
Metz. Marinko scoring. Suc-
cessive hits by J. Kostansek, Za¬
bukovec and J. Branclj brougnt
ip tvvo more runs.
In the third frame, Marinko
again singled and scored on a
long homer by F. Brancelj. This
ended the scoring for the Orels.
Makovic Hit Hard
Makovic, the losing hurler,
vvas hit hard, being nicked for
a total of nine hits, that includ-
ed a homer and a double. It
evidently vvas not his day, for
the Orel’s five run lead vvas too
big a handicap to overcome. Ma¬
kovic, vvalked one and vvhiffed
six batsmen. The Pioneers con-
neeted for only tvvo hits until
the eighth, one by Spretnak in
the third and another by Ha¬
bian in the fourth. In the eighth
the Pioneers scored three runs.
Barbič, first up, clouted a slow
bali for a homer. Pavlovič vvalk¬
ed and went to third on Metz’s
single into left. Schauer, bat-
ted for Meehan, and flied to Za¬
bukovec, Pavlovič scoring and
Metz advancing to third from
v/here he scored on Spretnak’s
is
second choice on the second
team, not on his record, vvhich
was not so good, but by the fact
ihat he never had decent support
given him. One of the team’s
chief fault vvas that' they never
had a complete line-up. It vvas
only in three tussles that Yerse
had a full team on the field, and
n these three games he defeated
three outstanding teams in the
League. His first victory vvas
over the Pioneers by a 4 . 3
score. He next edged his rivals
the Loyalites by hurling a one
hit game. And in the other he
edged the Orels in an unfinish-
ed and disputed game in vvhich
his team held a 3 - 1 lead. Yerse
has vvhat is knovvn as the flu-
kiest slovv bali in baseball -his-
tory.
Pavolic, of the Pioneers, in left j has carried the burden of the
and Joe Zalokar, of the Com¬
rades, in center, were the chosen
tvvo. Danny’s bat has led the
Pioneers throughout the entire
s-feason, and he also enjoved an
enviable record on the field.
Zalokar’s vvork has been one of
the mainstays of the Comrades.
He is a fast ftelder and a heavy
hitter. The right field position
vvas the most dificult one to
•pick. Looking throughout the

Orel Vietory Surprises
The OrePs victory came as a
surprise to the many fans, vvho
have vvitnessed the Pioneers in
action. Classed as one of the
best clubs in the Interlodge, due
chiefly to the pitching record of
Makovic, this club has tasted de¬
feat only tvvice out of some 20
games. The S. Y. M. C. edged
them by a 4 - 3 count and the
Orels did likevvise in one of the
earlier games of the season. But
the Pioneers have played bang-
v_p bali since those setbacks and
such a reverse handed them by
(Continued on page four)
Orel’s attack, and he has come
through vvith sailing colors. For
he has pitched his team into the
series. Jeray has proven him¬
self by his record vvhich makes
him a clear choice over M. Sod¬
ja, of the Loyalites.
Jeray’s chief threat in a game
is a puzzling slovv-ball, that cat-
ches the batter off his guard
Mixing up his fast bali vvith his
slovv delivery he is an extremely
hard man to hit.

The Collinwood Boosters are
the class B champs of the In-
terlodge League. Playing the
Clairvvoods in the second game
of the B series, the Boosters,
who had won the first encount-
er, made short work of their op-
ponents. Taking advantage of
the three successive walks,
coupled with an error, and two
hits, the Boosters literally cinch.
ed the game in the first inning
as they crossed the plate six
times. The final score being,
11 to 3.
Simon WHd—Ineffective
It was on Simon, their hurl-
ing ace, on whom the Clair-
woods banked to win the cham-
pionship. But Simon could not
stand the test, and his own in-
effectiveness with men on base,
together with his wildnee, —
spelled defeat for the S. D. Z.
boys. He walked a total of six
batters, five of them coming in
the first and second innings in
which the Boosters scored seven
markers, on only two hits. He
allowed but eight hits, but it
was seven of these that ruined
him.
The Boosters scored six runs
in the first on two bingles. They
dented the plate once in the
second, without a hit, crossed
the rubber once in the third on
one hit, made good on three hits
in the fifth to tally twice and
added one in the eighth on one
bingle. Seven hits and a total
of eleven runs. In the fourth
frame the Boosters hit safely
once but did not score. Simon
fanned six hitsmiths and also
threw five wild pitches.
Gulič Works Smoothly
While the opposing hurler was
having an off day, Gulič on the
mound for the Boosters, per-
formed wonderfully for his out-
fit. He pitched air-tight bali
until the sixth, when he eased
up and allowed two safeties for
the Clairwood’s first run. Two
more hits in the seventh pro-
duced two runs, but Gulič tight-
ened up and was nicked for but
one more hit, in the sixth iru
ning. He permitted but five
markers, those coming while he
was enjoying a 10 _ 0 lead. Gu-
lic’s fast bali, mowed down ten
Clairwood batsmen and he is-
sued five free passes. He had
only two bad innings, the sixth
and the seventh in which the
Clairwoods scored.
Koren’s Bat Scintillates
Koren, diminutive right short
found Simon’s pitching to his
liking. He laid on the bali, for
three singles and he also scored
twice. Krall also did some
heavy clouting as he laced out
a brace of one-baggers. Gulič
with a single, Nagy with a tri-
ple banged out the remalning
hits. Opaskar led the loser’s at-
tack with a double. Simon, J.
and E. Zupar'
