hits heing scratch hits.
Had the locals scored IN the first
inning as they should and again IN
no ffth. this would undoubtedly have
landed to give them the pep they so
soreiv needed and the outcome OF the
pame would have been a good deal
closer as the boys would have
tiohtened up and not allowed the
Visitors the last three or four runs,
vh,ch were virtually donated.
'The game was, nevertheless. good
neal closer than the score would
Indicate. and 1t is very likely that
Tho Warden All Stars will be taken on
again soon. in which case we Will
youch that the score Will pe gooo
deal different.
