THE 1898 BASE-BALL FE-AS-KO

In the third Fe-As-Ko, cowboy Royal Leckner, his wife E.M., and Leviticus and Lou, the mentally out-of-sorts owners of the Four Arrows Ranch, have lassoed themselves a struggling baseball team. They are depending on the team to save the ranch, but getting them ready for the big time makes breaking a bronco look like child’s play. In the course of a long winter’s training the team and its owners encounter obstacles such as E.M.’s conniving half-sister, her jailbird father, a past baseball scandal, and the team’s ruthless opponents. The team is scheduled to play the pennant-winning Boston Beaneaters in a game that will decide everyone’s futures.
