The Cardinals and picked nine from
the factory and telephone crews played
Il game Of base ball at the fair grounds
Sunday, which the former won by a
score of 10 to 5. The game was one

working, but the score was evened up
some when change was made in the
last two innings. Lamar has the ma
terial at hand for good nine this year

taken to get them together.
