Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 107, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 September 1909 — “Take Me Out To the Ball Game” On Tuesday Afternoon. [ARTICLE]
“Take Me Out To the Ball Game” On Tuesday Afternoon.
Unless all signs fail the base ball contest between the Woodmen and Odd Fellows next Tuesday afternoon at Riverside will be one of the best pieces of comedy ever undertaken in soft ball circles. No one would have the audacity to charge an admission and the game will be as free as river water during the spring rains. The line-up follows: Odd Fellows: W. J. Wright, Ist base; Chas. Simpson, 2d base; Will Clouse, 3d base; Eph Hickman, shortstop; Fred Arnott, center field; Dace Norman, left field; Harvey Moore, right field; A 1 McCurtain, catch; Hanks, pitch. It is understood that Hanks is the substitute name for a well known grocer. Woodmen: Ray Collins, catch; Geo. H. Healey, pitch; C. Payne, shortstop; Harrison Wasson, 2d base; Lee Kepner, 3d base; Tul Malone, Ist base; N. Littlefield, center field; W. F. Fry, right field; John Webber, left field. J. J. Montgomery, umpire. Game called at 2:30. The Knights of Pythias will be challenged by the winners.
