I tne House of David "We'll give baseball team much tougher game than wo gave the girls' team," prom ised D. W. Hall, manager of the Eagles baseball team after the regu lar Wednesday night practice ses sion. "With Wilson and Lewis to do the chucking. Conrad, Don Wilson and Nichols to do tho receiving, and mn irifleld very much (Improved through added oxpciionco and con fidence I can see no reason why tho Eagles should not glvo the whiskered players a hard battle next Monoay afternoon." In last night's practice session tho Eagles trounced a pick-up teom, and worked very 6moothly during the en tire five Innings played. Tho House of David baseball teom Is an organization which hos been playing baseball throughout the country for the past 15 years. It Is conceded to be tho champion travel ing baseball team of the world. Dur ing the last thrco years Its record of games won and lost IB: as follows: 1028 won 110. tied 3, !o3t 52 for a per centage of .600; 1020 won 08, tied 4. lost 43 for a percentage of, .675;. 1030 won 103, tied 1, lost 63 for a per centage of 863. Tho Eoules tills year hove won 17 and lost 13 for a per centage of .500. One of the special features put on by tho whiskered players Is a pep per game, by members of the infield. Tho boll Is handled so dexterously and- swiftly between the four or five players that It Is said to Bo impos sible for anyone, no matter how well trained In baseball, to follow the course of tho ball and be ablo to name at any tlmo who hos the ball In his possession. Every member of tho team Is a showman as wolt as an outstanding baBebiill star. John Tucker, first baseman, Is widely famed for his antics during a gomo and to watch lilm play is worth the price of admission alono. He catches balls from mony 'positions, some ! comical, many extraordinarily dim cult and fields his position with pro fessional ability. In fact, two teams In the Southern a;oclation have standing offers for Mr. Tucker. Sev eral other members of the Hourc of David team also have offers from professional baseball clubs who have recognized their ability. People often wonder why these men do not accept the highly re munerative offers made them. It is because of their peculiar tenets. The House of David colony at Benton Harbor. Mich., In primarily a religi ous sect, part of its belief Is that it is sinful to kill anything the members will not eat moat, cut their hair, or shavo their benrds. The players all live at Benton Harbor when not playing baHOball and travel ing with the colony team.
