Well, what do you think of that? "Soreheads’' the Cloverdale Graphic terms them—meaning th'ose Bluze the pride of “Chizletmvn " the same boys that took the bunch into camp at Oreencastle, July Fourth. Of course we can’t blame the Graphic for not claiming them as their own if that is the beet article of bal! they can put up. The Graphic is mistaken The game «'e had reference to was played at Cloverdale on July Fourth some four or live years ago. We didn't have reference to the Belle Union games at all. So don’t try and blame someone else with it. And as to the “ringers:’’ we -ere no expecting to play /our second team; as you say only three regulars played. Then why didn’t you play your regular team? We can’t see where The Herald vas off when It Bald you played "ringers”—outsiders. That is just vhat wo said and you have admitted It. As to the letter, we have t. signed H. P. Broadstreet, whether he ■wrote it or not, and > he contents were printed In The Herald of the IJUi inst. If someone has c en triail enough to use Mr. Broadstreet'6 name that gentleman has a chance for prosecution. Someone is guilty of forgery. Like the Graphic, we would like to see another game pulled off between these two teams, and by making a series of three games this difference could be settled ''or the season. Of course the umpire is always in favor with the home fans; and when the home boys are winning any kind of decision is O. K. in their estimation. The Bluze have played 10 games, 7 being away from home, of which they won five and lost two, won all three games played on their own lot. They have beaten Bainbridge, Cloverdale, Oreencastle, Hadley Clayton, and Plainfield. So if you don't understand the "whichness” of the if, the ‘‘whyness’’ of the when, and the ‘whereness’ of the what ytou had better not bump up against those Bluze. because there is always something doing Coatesville Herald.
