iTS SLEUTH Harry Green, Wanted for Child Desertion. Escapes in Boat. It was a great game, a glorious game, but no account of it will be found on the sport page for several reasons; first, the sport writer was not. aware that It would be played; second. it appeared as though (Ireen's team wouldn't have a look in with Kuespert's; and third, it only lasted one Inning. It occurred at Springbrook yesterday afternoon after Grand Rapids had defeated the Henders. In announcing the batteries for the game the one not on the sport ptje the umpire mifrht have said: "Tor the visitors, (Ireen and McMerrell; for the home team, Kuespert and Others." Chief I'm's New ( iirc. Kuespert shut out the (Jreens in the first half of the inning by the exclusive use of the "warrant ball." a new curve with which the thief is very proficient. The "warrant ball" curves in many directions, depending upon the pitcher and the batter. Kuespert threw or served what is known as the "desertion warrant," and Green couldn't see it. Then Kuespert came to bat. Green h.xd just zipped on the chief's favaiite ball and was angry, peeved and sore. He asked permission to talk to a woman whom he called Mrs. Green. After the consultation, he pissed Kuespert and he passed him fast. He turned and ran towards the river, thinking that he was a base runner. He -slid safely into a boat, which he mistook for first base, and rowed over the river by the rate track to second. (irren is Safe. He was safe. Kuespert didn't like to see the game broken up, so he called all of his men who were on the bench (at the police station) and ran after Green to make him finish the game or forfeit it. But Green had already rounded third and was out of sight. He had made a home run. Wanted for Child Iesertion. Harry Green's light name is Frank McMerrell and he is wanted in Columbus on a charge of child desertion. He has been here a month, coming from Logansport, where he played with an independent ball team. He wis put into the South Pend game yMerday in the ninth, but couldn't Ret a blow. He fared better in his little game with Kuespert and now Ed. Smith needs another pitcher. This one was not so green as his name implied. WHAT THEY ARE DOING ON THE PLAYGROUNDS
