'Gentleman' may win the award for
the most vintage member of the
Orators. Always wearing his long
sleeves and often with a cigar in
mouth 'Gentlemen' is as fine a ballist
as he is a dresser. No one looks more
dapper in Orator gray! 'Gentleman'
brings his talents and winning
attitude every weekend. A versatile
player Mr. Fortney can be found
excelling not only at the position of
short scout, but he is a gifted hurler
using all of the hurlers line to keep
opposing strikers guessing and off
balance. The Orators are very lucky
to have such a gentleman among
their ranks!
