St. LOUIS BARGAIN HOUSE
Charlie Roberson, who Is pitching
his first year of professional hall with
tlic Browns, answered the annual qnes
tion on ttie Railroader lot Saturday,
when the Hellmnnltos came hack at the
Peebles squad after Friday's grewsome
affair, and hung up a 5 to 3 defeat,
(treat hurling on the part of Roberson
and timely httting in the eighth when
the score was tled spelled defeat for
the (late City team.
Roberson struck out thirteen Rail-
roaders. including every man on the
| Denison team, and Peebles who went
in in the ninth to bat as a pinch hit-
ter. He was given good support all
round, the team playing in old time
form.
Patterson and Hughes were the
swatsmiths of the day. With the count
tied in the eighth Hughes singled and
Patterson doubted, counting Hughes
with the winning run.
Banner was the local's heavy slug-
ger. getting a home by bouncing the
ball over tlie left field boards.
In addition to being ineffective in
the pinches, Kinney was wild and
passed eleven local batters. ,
Sunday’s Game.
Sunday Higginbotham and Flowers
engaged in a pitching duel, With the
latter getting the best of the argument
and Denison winning as a consequence
by a score of 6 to 1. Higginbotham al-
lowed seven hits, which the Railroad-
ers made to count f<tr six runs; with
the assistance of five errors by the lo-
cals. Flowers got airtight support
from his teammates and held the
Browns to six hits, two of which went
for extra bases.
Allen scored the local's only run
Sunday, ns he did Friday. Allen also
scored in Saturday's game.
The box scores of both games I

Notes and Observations.
Ardmort) has announced the release |
of. Riggers, McDonell and Magness. It
is announced several new players will j
be tried out.
The Central Texas 1-oague season
opens this afternoon with a four team
circuit: Ennis, Ylexia, Temple and
Marlin being represented. Robt. Young
Mexoia's first baseman, was awarded a
prize of $15 for submitting the sched-
ule which was adopted by the league.
Today is Red Cross Benefit day in
Denison and a part of tlie home club's
receipts will go to the Denison Chap-
ter of the Red Cross. Incidentally it is
the last of the Railroader-Brown se-
ries, (Sherman returning home tomor-
row with Fort Smith for three games
Tulsa follows tlie Twins on the home
lot for three games, after which Deni-
son opens her first series at Lyon
Park, playing tiere Monday, Tuesday
and Wednesday of next week.
President J. W. Bell lias lifted ttic*
suspension of First Baseman Pat Dev-
erenux of the Muskogee1 club, who com-
mitted a cowardly assault upon Um-
pire Healey here May 8. The $50 tine
imposed upon I leveredux wijl not he
suspended, according to President
Bell. Bells’ action is as disgusting as
was the conduct of Devereaux when
he bloodied Healy's face before a
stand full of people at The Stadium
Early In the season Beil prided him
self upon his instructions to umpires
that they must not tolerate rough
house stuff and that he would person
ally see to it that his orders were en-
forced,, Not only lias hr permitted
Muskogee’s crowd of roughnecks to
get by with foul conduct, but he now
lifts u suspension imposed for one of
the most dastardly tricks ever seen
a diamond in the Western Association.
Fort Smith fans certainly do not ap-
prove of Bell’s action. He ought to bo
ashamed of himself. Devereux, Cal-
liert and others of the Muskogee team
will conduct themselves in a much
different manner on their next visit
here if they are wise.—Fort Smith
Southwest American.
The Dally Oklahoman lias been try-
ing for several years lo get Denison.
Sherman and MeAlester out of the
Western Association Baseball League,
and tlie capital city is again at the
job. It is needless to say that these
bustling, live towns will he playing
baseball and drawing crowds when oth-
ers fail. Oklahoma City lias forgot-
ten, it seems, that she was invited into
the league by Denison, who, in turn-
was glad to get r'ul of a few small
towns in the old league. We hope
these towns will not be froze out of
tli(> association.—Durant Democrat.
