After winning fourteen oft

hone, Mo. Valley was dc featad
by Denison in a game full of
errors.
With only three men Nicely
Deur and Reed, in their regu-
lar positions and the rest of the
team made up of new men and
shifting what regulars we had,
Mo. Valley played a good game
until the ninth inning when it
seemed that every man that
got hold of the ball had to
juggle it or throw it at a base
runner, and they generally
missed the runner.

good games though Bert was
not in his usual form. For the
first time in four games he
gave a pass and allowed more
hits than has been made eff him
in any game this season which
was partly due to slow filding.

the gentlemen it hopes to prevail up
on to accept the onerous position.
Matters have reached stage where
but little can be done other than wait
for a propitious time to begin the ac-

everything is ready for that, and be-
fore February's winds cease to blow
there will be financial crusade that
will make a big stir.
