practice game on the college campus |
between an aggregation styling them |
selves the Granite Stars" and another |
styling themselves the California |

eclipse, owing to the wonderful batting |
and brilliant field play of the Califor-

ever, discouraged, but is confident next
time there will be such a different
story that the Californians can taste
for awhile the sweets of wonderland.
