As to the prevalence ol gambling,
the mayor says:
Gambling, which is just one oN-

WINS FIRST GAME
Alma Defeats the Mt. Pleasant In.
dianS 10 TO |

The college baseball team won the
first game of the season last Saturday on
the Davis Field diamond, when it scalped
the redmen from the Indian school at
Mt Pleasant badly. The final score was
ten to one, the visitors showing in one
count in their half of the last inning.
The game was too one sided TO be
particularly exciting but it was interest
ing all the way through. The home
team showed but few spots that needed
be polished up, the infield especially
working together with surprising ease
and accuracy with the season yet SO
young. Hole, on the mound for the
college, threw a steady, CONSTANT & tme.
nothing very serious resulting from the
few times the Indians found him until
the ninth, when a single and double
sent in O. e lonely count. With Sandy"
Duncanson and Hole to depend on for
the big games, the colleges pitching
department can be relied upon.
The squad was not picked until Friday
night before the game. In the neighbor-
hood of twenty men have been out, all
fighting for positions, and those who
were not fortunate enough to receive
permanent berths on the first team will
be used on the scrubs.
