the team. the Colts yesterday lit into
'Finneran in the first two Innings 81
the last game with the Tars and smote
him madly for nine consecutive hits
netting seven runs and the game

the visitors. ground his teeth and
spoke words of fire, and cen though
he recalled the redoubtable F!nneran
and substituted both Starke and the
Inflated Poole. there was no chang
i,ng the result for the Colts had the
game nailed down. with the lid on SO
tight that even Jerome in his Jerome
ing days could not have forced an
ientrance
The Tars managed to gather four
runs during the nine sections into
which the game is divided. but most
of the four came as gift offerings.
The Colts won. and SO IL behooves us
to overlook the sins which were made
hut many there were OF the crowd
who felt shaky a times when some
Juggling was INDUCED in. which. I'M
der less favorable circumstances
would have brought the wrath OF the
enthusiasts down upon the heads OF
those responsible.
ReyeIle Pitched Well
Revelle was really pitching master
full ball. Naturally. with a sevcn-rur
