The challenge issued by the "Volga
Elevator team" to play match games
Of base ball with the Brookings Reds
has been taken serious by some of the
outside newspapers. The stipulation
required by the Volga bunch is that
1.-TWO games shall be played at Brook

by some that those Volga fellows are
"mud hens"
