Yesterday the Abilene high school
baseball team, escorted by so high
school students, went duck hunting
among the foot hills Of Enterprise
and bagged the big end Of the game
from the Enterprise Normal academy

Rockies would have been relegated
into oblivion in comparison to the
rocky diamond on which was waged
this duck hunt.
These normalites are dubbed
ducks" thus so many expressions
about the ducks The game was
loose throughout although many sem
sational plays were pulled off.
Sandy Hoffman fabricated his right
wing yesterday and gave South Paw
Mcdonnell rest. He held the Quack-
ers down to one hit and no count
was registered for the number Of
strike outs This was a good practice
game for the locals to put them IN
readiness for the battle with the sa-
lima highs at salina next Friday.
