BASE BALL
CeredO Lays it over the Blu BOus
OF Huntington bu a Score OF
Is tOI0

The Marshall college second nine
base ball team were scheduled to
meet the smaller team of Ceredo,
but when the Huntington boys came
they were big lusty fellows with
four of Marshall's first nine. This
necessitated adding three larger
boys to the Ceredo team. The game
was called at $3.50 p. m. Friday and
was nice clean game from the start.
Very few errors were made but it
was easily to be seen from the start
that Ceredo had the best team. AT
the end of the ninth inning the game
stood l5 to 10 in favor of Ceredo.
No unpleasant feeling marked the
game and although the diamond il
rough and no seats provided some
two hundred people with essed the
game.
Rev. John Johnson and his brother.
Warren johnson acted az umpires
and of course, came in for the usual
amount of abuse and criticism.
Fortunately Rev. Johnson is an
athlete and understands the role OF
"Uncle Sans perfectly.
The Ceredo boys lined up as fol
lows: Catcher Mack Wright Pitch
er, Callahan First b. Oscar Hazlett.
Second Il. Cbas. Norman. Third B .

While great credit is due TO every
member of the Ceredo club for the
manner in which they played, Pitch
er Callahan and Catcher, Mack
Wright deserve warm praise for
thier fine work.

the Professor is engaged in teaching
