First Ball Game of Season

The Brookings High School Base
Ball Team was defeated, altho not
routed, by the Castlewood team at the
latter place Saturday afternoon. 1t
was the old story-the pitcher did it,
Rubey Ellefson, but seventeen years
OF age and an 8th grader, with record
OF demoralizing old-time leaguers, was
the "phenom" against whom in vain
the locals swung their bats. The rest
of the Castlewood crowd was also in
evidence and succeeded several times
in getting the ball out of our tielders
reach.
The Brookings boys were at dis
advantage, on account OF the inability
oftheir captain and star pitcher, Henry
Arneson, to bc in the game; and
because as suggested, they could not
hit the wonder. But Severson, tho
pitching the first real game of his life,
kept his head splendidly, proving him
self perfectly reliable, and a "comer. "

STATEMENT
The Brookings High School requires
that anyone who wishes to represent
it in any athletic contest must be a
student in good and regular attendance
and standing, having passing grade
in each of four regular studies, as
three of the Castlewood team are not
in school and so could not fulfill
these conditions, this statement is
made in fairness to the Brookings boys
and for the promotion Of strictly high
school athletics.
