Electricians Defeated

The Mechanics defeated the Electri- clans in a pretty seven-inning game yesterday on the T. C. l. diamond by the score of to 0. Although the game was somewhat slow, the interest never Jagged. Many pretty catches and stops were made by the players of both sides. Harkins, pitching for the Mechanics, held the Electricians to four hits. Al though more hits were made off his delivery than off Wiggins, they were scattered.
 Wiggins, pitching for the Electricians, pitched a pretty game and was invinci- ble, but received poor support. and was wild at some stages of the game. Had he not received poor support, he would have shut out the Mechanics. He pitched a splendid game.
 In spite of the inclenhent weather quite a number turned out to see the game There werefsome small disputes with the umpiFe by members of both teams.
 The contest began at o'clock and only seveh innings were played On Saturday the Accountants will battle with the Electricians, and the Mechan- les will play the Millers. The first game will begin at 1:3o o'clock. The score by innings was: R. H E. Electricians ........ 900 1000 co 4 4 Mechanics. ...... 010 100 - 3 2
