Lit He had everything. He " as

inable to Ret pop fouls with an) de-

the youth who was pitching some of
the grandest ball ever seen at League

Londerful hurling of "bpit Bill

DOUBLE-HEADER AT
LEAGUE PARK SUNDAY
Railroads Put on Excursions
to Accommodate Out-
of-town Fans.
A double header between the San
Antonio Bronchos and the Fort
Worth Panthers will be the dish
served the fancy at League Park
Sunday afternoon beginning: at
2:30 o’clock according to an an-
nouncement from President Benson.
The Panthers had one postponed
game in their stay on the local
grounds and. after communing with
Secretary Paul LaGrave of the Fort
Worth club. Prexy Benson said the
rival teams positively would play a
double bill for the one admission
price.
All the railroads entering San
Antonin also have announced they
will put on excursions all Sunday
morning and Saturday night to ac-
comodate the out-of-town fans.
The teams now stand fifty-fifty
on the series and. with the result
of the series in doubt the stands
should be well filled Sunday after-
noon. Petty the wonderful recruit
twirler garnered by the Bronchos
probably will pitch one of the games
so that the fais may get an inside
glimpse on the youngster's ability.
According to Manager Harry
Stewart. who really developed
Harding into the great hurler he
is. this Petty lad is little short of
a wonder and with a bit of coach-
ing should ouclass anything in the
Texas League.
Stewart axers that the kid has
speed curves and a wonderful as-
sortment of foiders and wants to
get the fans’ opinion Sunday.
Delcambre showed a world of
stuff for seven innings in his due!
against the great Rankin Johnson
and if this Petty lad has more stuff
which they say he has he certainly
should deliver the goods.
