an amateur was some pumpkins as

try his hand and as Sir Joseph IL

as he remained on the mound till

Heavy Hitting and Poor Fielding.
From spectators point of view 1t
was an unlnteresting contest, poorly
played ON both sides. There was a
lot of good hard hitting but In the

to give one the Jim jams to watch |
the amateurish contest out. 1t was |
very refreshing and encouraging how |

usually been to let each pitcher look |
