Manning had a series of accidents last week in which Mike Cullsky was struck on the head with a ball bat, Frank Johnson was struck in the eye with a ball while witnessing a game and Fred Hammell was kicked in the ribs by a horse. Affixed to the other tragedies while Crosby Fox was hitching a colt the animal planted one foot in his mouth and Miss Bernice Deming lost her life in a runaway.
