The Oak Halls found themselves"
again Friday in the ball game, but only
for a few innings. and II was through
the especially hard work of Pop
Watson and a few OF the players that
we came out victorious.
The whole thing was characterized
by errors. il being a hard MATES 10
tell who was trying to get In the
air" column the most. and while the
game proved interesting and full c:
excitement. il was not what could be
called good ball.
Sandy Graham played the usual
clever game he has been doing for
some time past. but as much cannot
be said OF some OF the others. Sandy's
beautiful catch In the ninth was well
worthy Of the liberal applause that
was given him by the Ocala people,
who took their defeat gOod-naturedly
and stated they would be ready for
the next games OH next Thursday and
Friday in the Brick City.
The Ocala team was composed OF
Palatka. Orlando and Ocala. two each
from the former towns. Pounds Of
Orlando made a beautiful catch that
robbed" Gainesville OF a hit in the
first inning.
Il was clearly evident that Gaines
willie had landed onto Brown in good
fashion. for they had the game won
before he warmed up and had passed
five men across the rubber when he
was taken from the mound and Red
Donaldson substituted In his place. but
they also found him for nice hits
in the seventh and eighth.
In the first half of the sixth, by
the action OF zoe. Gainesville went
in the air and before they landed ON
the ground the Ocala boys managed
10 tie up the score. There were 4
