The Wausau Record says: The
triangular field meet held here Satur-
day afternoon in this city, between
| WauSau, Stevens Point and Grand
Rapids, resulted in an easy victory for
the Wausau boys. The victory came
as pleasant surprise to everybody, as
first place had been conceded to the
Rapids by all local track athletic
'dopists." Grand Rapids was, to be
sure. very seriously handicapped by
the loss of one of it's men, Mr.. Wood,
who preferred going on fishing
excursion. Had Wood competed they
would undoubtedly have taken second
place from Stevens Point, but they
could not have secured first place had
they secured the services of Alvin G.:
KraenZline.

in nine nice fat runs and although the
boys tried hard to overcome the lead
it was impossible. Mr.. TrOwe i'm

Sunday it was undoubtedly case of
too fast company. With the stick

very creditably, but his withdrawal
from the field weakened that portion
of the me perceptbly.
Outside of the box Grand Rapids
had no call to be ashamed of her
showing. Errors were about even,
while in batting and base-running our
team easily had the best of the argu-
ment. The wet ball and slippery grass
rendered fast fielding out of the
question but nevertheless several
snappy plays were pulled off On both
sides. With Grand Rapids pitching
