The cool manner in which Jeffries

comment and some harsh criticism.
Jeffries' Indifference to the disappoint-

the first inning, after Berling had dropped
one over Sullivan's head for a clean hit.

in a fair way 10 win, with the score ,
20 1 in their favor, but the Georgetown
boys managed 70 slide another run over
the plate in that inning and two more
in the next. and this proved just two too
many for the losers, as they could not
connect with Todd for more runs
The game was played before a good
sized crowd OF high school fans from
each school. and the cheering was lively
when their respective teams scored or
made q brilliant play.

for the first five innings. Todd. who
worked for the Westerners, steadied
down after the second chapter and held
the Southeasters 20 a brace OF hits and
no runs. He was also given frst-class
support. Varella and Harris. who gen

scored on Harris sacrifice. Babcock
stole second, he also making third on
