East Lemon. Wyoming county, has
n pretty fair ball team and it played
two games with the Montrose team at
Springvile on the Fourth of July and
lost both of them by very decisive
scores. But East Lemon was not sat
isfied and laid plans which il was call
culated would result in a crushing de-
feat for Montrose. a battery from
Tunkhannock, Reyonlds. noted pit
cher and Register and Recorder Shaw,
whose work behind the bat is mar
vclous, was secured, and thus forti-
fed, the East Lemon ball nine, rein
forced by rooters from Sprngville.
moved on Montrose last Saturday. The
game proved one of the closest and
most intensely interesting games Of
the season. At the close of the ninth
inning, the score was even, necessitat-
ing another inning. which gave Mont
rose the game by the narrow margin
of one run. the score being 12-1l. And
yet. East Lemon is 'lectioneerin' for
another lickin'," and it is probable
that Montrose will accommodate them
and go down the road for a game be-
fore many days.
