PLANETS AHEAD.
The Planets still lead the North
Ends. with reference to eligibility for
meeting the South Ends for the city
championship. The other time the
two teams played the result was
smut out, in favor of the Planets.
This was the first game of the season
for the teams and the playing was
rather ragged, so that the North Ends
were unsatistied and they expected to
make Saturdays game decisive. one
way or another. Try as they would
however, they could get no decisive
advantage. If they have another
game there is no doubt that It will
be well patronlzed. Planets believe
that they have played the North Ends
enough to demonstrate that they are
the better team.
