MoNRovIA, CAL, May 3.-[Special. i
Apparently there is no other town along
these foothills that is so completely
worked up over the national game as is
Monrovia at the present time. This is
demonstrated by her several clubs, and
the old and young who are successfully
keeping down the. grass on the new Cen
tral park ball grounds in this city. The
scheduled game today between the mar
ried and single men, was promptly
opened at 3 p. M, with Woodwork and
Valentine battery for the singles, and
Virgins and Harvey for the married.
Both teams made close and tie work till
after the retirement of Harvey and Rob
erts, OF the married, being disabled,
thus allowing the singles to win an easy
victory.
