3 TO Provo in the morning, reaching the
latter city at 1913. and an equal NUM-
4 Der of students of the B Y academy
met them at the depot with the col
| lege band and all the yelIs they could
{ muster. As soon as the train pulled IN
q line of march was formed and the
visitors were escorted TO the city
| square in the northern part of the
! town, where all the sports were pulled
off. The line of march extended along
J street to seventh. down Seventh 10 @,
and up the latter to the square. There
was any amount OF enthusiasm, yelling,
/ Blowing of horns, beating of drums and
patriotic music 10y the band.
/ One noticeable feature of the contest
was the fact that the visitors had
enough friends with them 10 make the
applause about equal on both sides. In
the past it has been rather One-sided
| in this particular.
Programme Opens With Ball Game.
The baseball game was the first
thing in order as soon as the crowd
] reached the square. The game began
at lIs45 and lasted for two hours. Dur
/ ing that 1irne the ball was batted al
over the field and something ike a
( cricket score run UP, the result being
I Il to in favor Of The L. d S. The
game promised to be a good one during
the first two innings, but IN the third
the Provoites went to pieces and al
1 lowed the Saints to score seven runs.
After that the game WAS rather even,
there being few good plays and lots
of poor ones.
Cotton on first for Provo did better
playing than any other man on either
team. Thomas pitch for the Saints
did good work. He pitched the entire
nine innings. FeatherstOne- pitch for
the Provo team. gave out in the fourth
inning and Theriot took MS place The
latter did some pretty good pitching
but the Saints didn't think 50, il look
ing as though he tried to hit every man
that stood up TO the bat In the fifth
inning he hit Z. Hanson, who was en-
deaForing to slug the ball. over the
&
I pitcher. Hanson recovered before his
I side went out into the field again.
The general opinion OF the game was
( that the boys were too much of ana
| teurs TO interest a crowd
