lEAGUERS LOSE
To MONOGRAMS
Score of Seven to One Made
in City Park
Sunday

In a score OF seven TO one. the
Amarillo Leaguers lost TO the Mono
grams Sunday. This game was for
the purpose of playing off tie the
teams having won two each. On ac-
count OF this fact. the attendance was
larger than usual, and interest cen
tered sharply In the result OF the
play
II is stated that the Leaguers had
lost rather heavily through the fact
that the team had undergone several
changes during he past week. Wheth-
or this was really responsible for the
defeat OF the Leaguers, or whether
some other cause contributed to the
overthrow, is not stated.
That the Monograms PLAYED in the
lead from the start to the close can
not we'll be denied They held to
each point of vantage, and it soon be-
came apparent that there would be
nothing stirring for the Leaguers.
Whether the teams will match an
other game real soon is not stated
but il is known that the Leaguers
desire chance TO demonstrate
against the Monograms again.

tired of going to school. and decided
that the best way of getting out Of the
difficulty was to fire the school house.
