TOLEDO FANS FICKLE CONCERNING NICKNAME

"Iron Men” is the latest nickname for the Toledo baseball club. Two Toledo sport writers are using the name exclusively in referring to the club. Whether it will become popular is problematical. Rajahs and Bresna Hens were two names that for a short time seemed to strike the popular fancy, but fandom decreed that neither was suitable and returned to the old name of Mud Hens. Whether the new name will prove popular is hard to predict. One paragraph intimates that it would be a shame to let them drop behind and rust during the coming season.
