The Kid Team Wins First Place by Two
Victories.
Last Thursday afternoon the two
ball teams played six innings of the
national game, which resulted in a vic
tory for the kids, The provisions Of
the articles of agreement we're that
tie old team were to beat the Young
sters 3 to 2 in a six inning game. This
they failed to do. The game was an ex-
citing one from the kid standpoint as
we'll as for the spectators who were
mainly whoOpingit up for the juveniles.
When the umpire called the game the
score was found to be to s, victory
for the second nine.
The now second nine, chagrined over
their defeat, resolved to retrieve their
fallen fortunes by challenging the now
first miners to play Friday at even
break. The challenge was quickly &C
cepted and heavy watermelon wagers
made on the result.
While the older players we're full of
determination, the younger ones we're
no less bursting with enthusiasm and
resolution.
The fates had deCreed, however, that
the youngsters would win, and the
old nine met disastrous defeat to the
score of IA to 10, which so swelled the
victors that challenge TO the pennant
winners of the national league would
be no surprise to the local fans.
The following is the score by innings
of the two games.
