THE FATS WIN
A GREAT VICTORY

BY far the largest ball game of
the season was pulled off on the To-.
cal diamond here Tuesday between
the Fats and Leans. This time the
Fats came out with colors flying
high, the score being 27 to l3 In
their favor. At the close of the
second inning the score was eight
to one in favor of the Leans and
prospects were not looking very
fattering for the heavyweights,
but in the sixth they got busy and
run in l3 scores and from that time
on they had easy sailing. The big
men certainly did pull off some fine
stunts and were loudly applauded
from the grand stand, which was
filed with ladies and young girls
friends and sympatbizers of the
Fats.
Features of the game were two
out field catches by Dalton, one by
Bowers, a home run by Douglas,
)ne by Gereau and three bagger
IN a forced run by Null.

MAYNARD TAKES GAME
FROM D0NIPHAN

The game of baseball between
Maynard and Doniphan last Satur-
day resulted in a victory for May
nard, the score being to 5. 1t is
SAID that DoniphaD had the select
OF three or four teams in her line
up, while Maynard's team was com.
posed of school boys, who proved
themselves to be too strong for the
visitors.
Booker, an old time twlrler, was
easily hit by Maynard, while Lem
mons, the twlrler for Maynard, was
not so easily hit by the visitors.
The entire team, with the excep-
ton of one man, struck out. Lem.
mons struck about one or two who
had not laid down the bat for years.
The game was fast and full of
enthusiasm and was witnessed by
the largest crowd ever assembled on
a similar occasion. The O. M. A.
girls gave their hearty support by
yelling, cheering and singing on
the side lines. Maynard will play
Doniphan next Saturday.
