The local team outplayed Palmer at
every point last Saturday and were
easy winners. The visitors released
Turkey last Friday and came here
with two new twirlers from up North
ampton way. Lynn was put in first,
and it was just like taking candy
from a child. Myles, the other pitch
er, was a bit more effective, but it is
thought that he could have been hit
harder if runs had been needed.
Francis, the first baseman, showed up
in good shape and will prove a good
addition to the team. About 40 or
SO of the Palmer rooters came down
with the team and saw it done.
