That's the holiday baseball schedule for Timp Park Saturday. Manager Lob Collins' diamond artists are eager to show the home fans what an improved ball club they are.

CTiristensen in Sammy Christensen, Provo's veteran pitcher, will get the starting call Saturday, unless Clyde Greenwell, formerly with the Timps who recently reioined the club, happens to look better in the eyes of Skipper Collins. The one riding the toench will take his turn on the mound when Provo invades Bingham for a game with Gemmell club Sunday. Since no game will be held here Sunday, Provo baseball goers will likely turn out for the holiday game en masse.

The game will start promptly at 2:30. Millet With Wayne Millet added to the outfield, the Timps will field a strong outfit. The usual lineup will take the field. LaVar Kump, Provo shortstop, will be out to get as many hits as possible in an effort to gain on Earl Owen of Pinney Beverage in the league batting race. While Provo and Magna are staging their warfare, the other clubs of the league also will bs active.

U. S. Mines will play Pinney Beverage at Salt Lake City, and Gemmell and Midvale will tangle on the latter's diamond.

Curve Ball Finder, Dies CHESTER, N.

July 21 The man who claimed he pitched baseball's first curve-ball is dead. He was William (Billy) Dee, 73, who, according to himself and diamond legend, discovered by accident in 1881 how to put a "hook" on a ball. Dee, who ran a confectionery store and a newsstand here, died yesterday. One afternoon of 1881 Dee, famous pitcher, was warming up with Tom Miller. A seam on the ball was torn and as Dee let the baseball fly, the seam caught on his fingers.

As a result the ball spun suddenly into an outcurve. Day after day he worked on pitc'ning curves. Soon Dee was able to make the lull "break" without the help oi a damaged seam.
