lost yesterday afternoon to the All
Star aggregation under the guidance
of Paul King. The score was % to 8.
The Champs were simply outclass-

but the many spectators present were
held to the highest pitch Of excite
ment by the brilliant base running OF
the winners. Several home runs were
made and three baggers, two baggers
and singles were plentiful, the long
hits being the result simply of daring
