EAGLE RIVER WINS!
All the Laurels of Central and North
ern Wisconsin laid at the Shrine
of our little City.
We take two straight games from the New
London Ball T0ssers.
Diamond Strikes Out Nineteen Men In Satar-
days Game.

The New London club which took long
hair.scalps, (and who were 80 determined
to have ours) from Green Bay, Shawno,
Stevens Point, Appleton and Lawrence
University, came to Eagle River last Sat
urday, flushed with deserved victory, and
laid all their PROUD trophies at our feet.
With scientific vengeance, at appropri-
ate times, we fairly killed the ball and
the visitors could see their last fast fond
hope crawling off in the cleaning.
In neither game did the visitors get an
earned run, and they can thank their
lucky stars, and combinations OF field
ing errors, that they were not shut out in
both games.
Our team lined up as follows: Dia-
mond, pitcher; Colman, catcher; Daskam
first base; Lull, second; Murphy, third;
Wines, short stop; Hull, right field; Hall,
center: Alberts, left, the latter being sub
stituted in Sundays game by O'Connor.
Diamond was in his old time form; he
had the New London's at his mercy; they
failed to solved his curves and speedy
ball, striking out nineteen men in Satur-
days game and twelve in the Sunday
game, and only allowing two safe hits
in the first game, and but one in the
second.
Allen done the twirling for the visitors
and pitched steady game. He struck
out three OF our boys in the first game.
Tit batting of our boys, which they
pride themselves in, was terrific; Lull
making a clean home run, and Hull
making doubles and singles as often as
he liked. Murphy and Wines also slug
ged it out.
The following is the score by innings
in Saturdays game:

In Sundays game the boys started in
encouraged by the first victory, and
promptly began to pound Allen out Of
the box. He was substituted by Will
Iiams, the Amigo pitcher, who was sum-
marty dealt with in two innings. Will
liams "the scalper" took the box and
held the boys down from that out.
In the fourth inning O'Connor plunked
the horsehide over the fence for a home
run, with two men on bases.
Our boys putiup an errorless game up
to the ninth inning; everything appear
| ing7lovely for acleall shut out, the score
being seventeen to nothing. Diamond
struck the first man out, Williams came
to bat and knocked fly to center field,
the first one going out of the diamond,
which was muffed and Williams got to
second. G. Williams knocked q grounder
between short and third while Ed VIII
liams scored. They piled up two more
on combination of fielding errors.
Colman cut off six men at second i'll the
last game.
