demurred but after the umpire

At the end Of I've innings the score

10 keep on playing aud Manager
Saunders agreed Here he made his

agreed again. In the next two Chilli
cothe scored enough runs 70 make the
score stand I'VE to four In their favor,
thus winning the game.
This should Be 9 good lesson for
Manager saunders and in fact the
whole Mexico team. The cause Of
nearly all the defeats that Mexico has
sustained this pear has been Just this;
the failure To take advantage Of
everything.
Mexico had yesterdays second
game won twice but instead OF taking
IL, they let Chillicothe have another
chance, and on ChiIlicothes home
grounds and with ; new umpire AS
long as Mexico does dub" acts like
that they can't expect to win. In
their games they always throw away
chances TO score and when they get at
all ahead, slways let down and play .

almost or does pass them. That is

this, Mexico must expect TO lose a good

But yesterdays game, On the part
Of the players was almost faultleSs.

THERE is no trouble 10 find = reason
for opposing street paving. Some
don't want the work zone until next
year, some want it done this year;
some oppose the work, because some
one else fayoB 1t: some rich people
don't want 10 cripple poor people;
some strong men hide behind weak
women. The only real reason why
property owners object to street paw
ing and granitoid walks is, because
they don't want 10 pay the price. II

the north side alley is blocked all talk
