All Their own Way.

Those go people who went out TO Broad

disguised. ana with keen sense Of
having lost several hours that might
have been put to better use.
The Baltimore City College eleven was
cracked up 10 be red-hot member OF
the fraternity. but when the Richmond
Athletics were done with them they took
a back seat--as far back as seats go.
The game was advertised TO take place
at li:SO o'clock. but 1t was an hour later
before play commenced. quite a crowd
OF ladies and gentlemen went out to the
ozark to see the game, but many OF them
became tired OF waiting and Left.
After playing one Commute half and
another lasting 10 minutes. Richmond
had made p points. and by a misplay
gave to the visitors points. The game
was tame affair. II started with plenty
OF excitement. but the ending was like a
contest between school-boys. To say
that the Baltimore City College was OUT
classed draws the truth mildly. They
were simply not in 1t. and that fact be-
came evident within 30 seconds after play |
commenced.
