Down to Defeat Before
Sam Hall

This is the open season for handball

were all kinds of hunters lying around
under the gallery looking for victims.
Three matches in the big annual cham
pionship were played, and they all proved
that Charlie Eyton's pet contention-that

George Hupp and Henry Learned played
the only extra inning game of the after

and before the men were ready to retire
it went to 27 to 81, with Hupp drawing
the big figure.
