made special preparation to
defeat them in the third game.
Edwards and Braddus, two Richmond
men composed the Lancaster battery.
Edwards pitched mastery ball all the
way, only allowing two ats. but the
stanford boys took advantage OF all
opportunities, and piled up a total of
q scores which we're too much for the
Garrard men to overcome. The game
was IA good one. and was distinguish

fclder by making one Of the prettiest
.atches ever seen on the Lancaster
diamond Waters, ga second Artie

won 40 many games for them In the
past
Capt. Bill M'Carty, who is zeal
leader OF the local players, both In
batting and on the field got the two
hits OFF Edwards This boy plays a
classy article of ball at first and will
make good in the Blue Grass League
