day, and it was strong team that wen
into the field against our boys, but it was
of no use We had the goods and we de-
livered them. With the bad taste in III
mouth, left by the trouncing Medford adj
ministered the previous week, and with
the number of hits piled up against Mar
tin, the Burlington manager decided NOT

team and came here loaded for bear, with
confidence that victory was in sight.

being In the pitchers box and he did good
work.
