Saturday forenoon's game on Wind ham field between the Whalers of New London and Mayor Dunn's Colts was one of the most classy exhibitions of the national game given in the Thread City in many months. A good sized crowd of enthusiastic fans gathered The game opened badly for the home nine, as New London succeeded in get opening half of the first inning.

Whitman
 tic was blanked again and the fourth saw another run added to the visitors
 total, making six to one. The Colts could not score in the last of the fourth.
