1t will be readily observed that the
Cheyenne team was not a strong one, and
that several OF the members were out of
form. Bergersen is usually good for ten
straight, while Holcombe and Marshall
make good scores in practice.
The weather was fair and everything
passed off smoothly. Laramie was even
more hospitable than usual, and the visit
ors were given the best the town
afforded.
