The Lancaster high school ball
team added one more to their string OF
defeats last Saturday when Cassville
high school, defeated them by a score
Of to 6. The game was lost by the
locals through lack of consistent team
work. The Cassville boys pulled off
several stunts that would have done
credit to a team of semi-pros. F. G.
Parish, the Cassville principal, is
coach Of the team and also its most
valuable member. The locals have
not been able to secure the services Of
coach this spring and because of the

thing like team work. Several Of the
players show great promise, however
and in another season the team should
regain the high school championship
of Southwest Wisconsin which it won
last year.

the rate is 81 per agate line. The
inside cover space of the Post IS worth

rate per line in other parts of The Post
is So. 90. An interesting tact that might
