Another unusual thin,? in connec

that it was played lh C& minutes,
the shortest contest ever staged In

Rommel, at the top of his game,
is a great pitcher. He hi:s th mist
tantalizing knuckle ball in (he

a mystifying change of pace..
I umpired a number of guinea re

be at his best, only io see him
driven to the showers before the
completion of the game.
The day that Hormnel beat Chi
