Comments on the Game Between the
Elks and Band Boys by
Manager Paterson

Sure the Elks won the game. What
was the trouble with the Band boys
Just lack Of practice, and did not
have the right line up. Old Larry
should have PLAYED the bench, Her
man Flanagan should have pitched
and yesterdays pitcher should have
been our catcher and Paterson should
have played marbles. Then all the
boys got scared at the large crowd
in the grand stand, and when they
look at big wops like Verigan and
a few more, etc well, we will
practice a little more, get some more
musicians and we will try it again
