Big Joe saw this money after the game and said for us to thank all the fans for tlioir generosity. He saw to it that all the members of the team had plenty of pop to arink after the game. He said hope I can hit four for four for these people We do too, Joe. -------------WTS-------------- were talking with a pair of coffee drinkers yesterday and the su'nject for some reason got around to baseball.
