Ry interpreting the sounds of the game and with occasional aid from other spectators on such matters as names of players or explanation of some of the action, the youth takes great delight in the national pastime and is an ardent fan. Frank “heard" the Columbus Senators of the American Association, play Kansas City here recently. When the game was over the youth said he knew why the Senators weren't winning many ball games. “Columbus players hit the ball with a dull sound to often while the Kansas City players smack ’em soundly and solidly.” Frank explained. Which means that Columbus wasn’t hitting the ball and Kansas City was “pounding the ball on the nose.” o The regular meeting of Kekionga Lodge No. 65, will be held Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock at the K. of P. home. All members please be present. wed-t f All Knights of Pythias who want to take part in the county meeting and third rank work at Geneva, Monday evening are asked to lie at the K. of P. home Thursday evening. o Harvard Student Is Found Shot To Death Windsor, Conn., May B.—(U.R) —The body of Walter Treadway Huntington, of W’indsor, junior at Harvard, was found near the Hartford-Springfield highway here today with a bullet wound in the head. Authorities said preliminary invesmurdered and the body placed in the ligation indicated the youth was field where it was found. o Buffalo Nickel Model Iron Tall, u Sioux chief on the Pine Ridge reservation, was the model for the Indian bead on the buffalo nickel, designed by James Earle Fraser and put Into circulation In February. 1913. Iron Tall later joined the Buffalo Bill 101 ranch shows and toured the country, stipulating that part of his remuneration should be paid In the nickels bearing his profile.
