Athletic park by Richmond, wnlcn
won by S to 0.
Suffering under the sting Of defeat
q week ago at Connersville, when the
locals came out with the small end OF
q 2 to l score, Dick Kenney's temper
was enraged, and he warned the team
members most emphatically yesterday
that they had to win. A shut-out score
was the result.
The game was played before the
largest and most enthusiastic crowd
OF the season. When the contest start
ed there were over fifty automobiles
in the park, besides two large auto
trucks from Connersville. About one
hundred and fifty Connersville rooters
accompanied the team either in the
auto trucks or on the train They went
away a disappointed lot. and what is
more, the game was of such charac-
ter and they were beaten so badly
that they were not given a chance to
sQue0 as they did week ago.
