The Woods Commercial College base
ball team defeated Eastern High School
on Monday by IL to 8, in poorly played
game.
The Fasteners got but four hits off
the delivery OF White. who was on the
rubber for the college. White struck
out seven batters. The High School
tried out new twirler in the person of
Zirkle. who did creditabIe work but the
support given him was ragged and II
was chiefly through errors that Woods
won the game. Woods College would
like to arrange games with all teams in
the District and vicinity.
