The baseball game was a wonderful one.
The Winfield boys won the game. but it
took fifteen innings to do il and then
they only scored once. It is in this fact
that the Fairmount boys find much for

| nings been played without single score
being made. Not only did Fairmount
keep the other side from scoring for four
teen innings but in points, the Wichita
boys outdid their opponents. They made
eicht safe hits TO Winfie51's four and
reached third base four times. Franz
and Anderson composed the Paramount
battery. Houston and Nichols did the

! a showing as the Winfield pitcher strik-
| ing out twenty-five men to Houston S
