BASEBALL GOSSIP. (By Tort;

After a pitchers famine in the local camp, existing for several moons, we have now more slab artists than the old lady who lived in the shoe had brats. Thursday a young man by the name of Hunter, who pitched last spring for the Indiana university team, reported for duty. Arnet Cole, a promising Columbus. O., semi-professional has also reported. Manager Jessup also announces that he has completed a deal with Van Wert whereby Pitcher Wentz, who has refused to report to the locals, is exchanged for Harry Hay. -The pitch

Portland at Richmond. Van Wert at Decatur. Bluffton at Kokomo. Richmond 5; Decatur 0. Decatur, Ind., Aug. 30. Richmond made It two out of three by defeating Decatur Thursday afternoon by score of 5 to O. Fleming, who was jolted out of the box the first inning of the

game Wednesday, came back at the locals, and just to show them that he would' not be the goat all the time, pitched a whirlwind fame, letting .the Commodores, down with two stingy . singles and plastering on the kibosh for nine innings. Engle was in the box for the locals and the Richmond team, which took the field with a crippied lineup, got him hard in the fifth and eighth, innings.

Owing to a sprained ankle sustained .by Minzler in going feet first into home plate Wednesday, the little fellow could not play Thursday. This necessitated playing Hicks at second. Weaver on first and Horn in right field. Both Hicks and Weaver played spectacular games. Fisher, at third also played a peach of a game. Decatur was never a factor in the game as the Commodores could do aboslufely nothing with Fleming's speedy delivery. In the fifth, Jessup. first up, was retired on an infield out. Hicks then smote out'a double to center. Fisher advanced him to third on a single. On the next pitched ball Fisher stole second. Horn then singled, scoring Hicks and. advancing Fisher to third.

Fleming smashed a long out nearly to the right field fence and Fisher came home under it. Ritter rapped out a pretty two-bagger, bringing Horn in. Wiltermood ended the batfest by breezing. In the eighth Ritter pot a life on Behringer's error and was sacrificed ti second by Wiltermood. Weaver then doubled, scoring Ritter. Morris' poled out a screaming double and Weaver romped home. Cap Jessup got into the slugfest with a single and Morris was caught at the plate. The decision was a. very, close one, being made by Umps Turner, the latest joke President Kling has perpetrated. Hicks got a life on an error by Wallace then Fisher ended the inning by flying out to Burns. The score:

.333 Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday

the Quakers played at Decatur and the schedule calls for the Van Wert team to show there the" "remainder of this week. Thursday it was decided to have the Van Wert team come here for three games and Decatur play at Portland but later it was decided to abide by the schedule. Hay was to have come here with Van Wert and he will 'probably ' report by Saturday. Arnet Cole was the crack twirler on the Ohio State university tam.

He is also a well known newspaper man in Columbus, O., having been in the sporting department of the Ohio State Journal for the past two years. If he is given a good tryout he is confident of making good. i

Providing the rain does not butt in there 13 a game on -at Athletic park between Richmond and Portland,-who

are just now setting a hot pace for j the league leadership. This series is j

a most important one and if Portland is given a set back the Quakers will

have a good lead for the flag. Gov. Minzler is nursing a severely strained right ankle. The home plate on the Decatur grounds is. a couple of inches above the ground and when Minzler slid into the pan Wednesday he had his ankle badly twisted. He gamely finished the game but Thursday the injured member pained him

so severely that he had to lay off. He!

! thinks he will be able to resume play

by Sunday. The little fellow will be

badly missed in the Portland series. The Richmona players led the stren nous, life in Decatur. After the vie

torv Tuesday the village fans iirst

sought the gore of Umps Thompson. He was escorted to the hotel by the Quakers and remained there all night

under cover, nuietly taking his depar

ture the following morning. Tuesday night a gang of young hoodlums set upon Fisher and Weaver as they were taking a stroll snd gave them several cracks with stor.es and clubs. Hicks' batting has been the feature of the two games in which he has participated as a local player. The first game he batted left handed against a right handed twirler, getting two singles and a double. Thursday he batter right handed against Southpaw Engle and cracked out a single and a double. We believe someone mentioned that this lad is a weak hitter. He also played a beautiful game around second base, Thursday. Fleming certainly had the Commodores on his wagon, Thursday. Of the twenty-seven putouts made by his support, fourteen were of the pop fly variety. '
